Hii, I have a question about how you plan to handle the Dokimon "franchise"

Some games like Touhou have a very nice universe of fangames. Fans are allowed to release fan games with characters from the Touhou series and profit from them.

The main reason why I ask this is because these monsters are freely usable assets. But if people don't use the Dokimon name, it creates a bit of "it's stealing from Dokimon!" or "Argh, another game using this asset pack". However, if they are marketed as licensed fan games of Dokimon, this creates a different aura for the whole thing.

Touhou kinda went big because of all the fan games, so I think it can benefit the profitability of Dokimon too.

Do you have any thoughts on this?
