With the information you have provided we would have to DQ you as that way too close to Sanrio IP

We have seen others change the color scheme to a Monkey and completely drop the name comparison and it should be fine

does that mean that if i just change their name to something random like "John the dog" it would be fine?

After seeing the pic, changing the name and the color pallet would both be required to ensure Sanrio IP has no issue.

The game is grayscale though, so im not sure that a monkie plush would look that much different. I will try my best to redact it though. Thanks for the answer.

If it cannot be fixed before entries closed, you can fix it after judging before Mouse plays it. We'll only DQ if its time for Mouse to play and Sanrio IP concerns remain.

Given the color scheme chosen, the design might need to be changed to be more clear this is nothing to do with Sanrio

Thank you! I will submit it today without too many changes, but by the time the votes are over I will replace all of them with proper Monkeys! That obviously being the only replacement done to the game, so that I wouldn't break any other rules.

(Just in case, today's version already has all mentions of the name replaced to "monke plush")

Sounds good, appreciate your understanding

Here's the updated version just in case! Legal troubles bye-bye! B)

Perfect! I assume the final room is similarly fixed then we have no issues
