Game Stolen & Worried.
My name is alisdairr, Lead Developer of Fever Dream VR, and to be extremely clear I am referring to: https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/feverdreamvr/26451641771161792/
(Official Store Page which releases TODAY)
For the sake of people not hovering over checking authors, I will clearly list which is the real and which is the fake.
This is the direct link to the fake: https://www.meta.com/en-gb/experiences/1186461474543857/
Lumination Studios is a small studio, worried that meta may deny my IP Takedown Request due to theirs releasing before ours, even though we can supply copyright documents, they reuse old horizon store pages, before it became a copy of our game it was a copy of Lethal Ape, which there's about 50 of, even I have the project now, Its opensource at this point and the owner never wanted that, did you know, NONE of them on the store are real, the original creator kept them stored in her server, this was back in 2023, its 2026 now, she quit her online presence cause she felt so **bleep** about it.
If any meta representatives are listening, something needs to be done, this happens to almost every developer I know, they get an APK via a beta test or even just downloading off their headset, or with plugins like DownQ, then running it through their own IDA's or AssetRippers, stealing assets and assets worth of models, scripts, sounds and shaders, and claiming it as their own, this has to be some form of digital thievery, just look at the games their making, someone at meta needs to do something about it, and needs to do it fast, this is stupid, no developer should have to ever worry about their game being posted on the horizon store.
Thanks for reading, I hope all turns out well, and if possible could anyone at meta reach out to me and help me in this, I would greatly appreciate it.
