I'm sure it's a good game, but did you get permission from the artist, sarn4 (VeggieStudio on Devianart), or the dress up game developer Rinmaru, to use their art to earn money? Please don't steal from artists. I understand how difficult it is to get someone to do game art for you and how you put a lot of work into the game, but if the artist is uncredited and you didn't ask to use their art, then it's art theft.

Hi there! First of all, I don't earn anything on that game and the source material is credited in the game's credits. :) I've never claimed Sarn4 & Rinmaru's art as my own and will never do. 

On another note, when I started this game I was pretty sure the assets from the avatar game was free to use as long as it was for non commercial use (which is the case here), but recently I found out it was not. The project is currently on hold and this issue is one of the main reason. :) I need to contact Rinmaru/Sarn4 directly to know if there is any chance to get a proper authorization to use these assets for a non commercial game and if not, find another solution. ^^ But as the game will probably be a free game, I cannot work with an artist as I would feel bad for not being able to pay him/her. So yeah, this is currently an issue I'm working on. :)

But please, do not openly accuse someone of claiming art as their own when the source is credited... Thanks. :)

Well that's a bit of a road bump, isn't it? Have you managed to contact them? It would be a shame if the game got stalled because of this.

Sorry for the loooong delay: unfortunately, for now the game is on hiatus until further notice. :) I might put the first chapter for download at some point.

Yeah, that'd be great. Even if you don't finish the rest of the game it'd be a shame to miss out on the work you put into chapter 1.
