This is a necropost. Please make sure to read the last post date before posting. The reason why Im not going to do anything is because this is a good project thread.
Also why would you bring that up here. That was long ago and bringing up a topic that was already resolved by a moderator sees unnecessary and you are muddying this thread up.
It also seems from the the context of the previous posts, the project was decrypted not under the author's consent. Which means that yes, it would be technically stealing. And if there are custom graphics and music, yes that ruins hours upon hours of a project's originality. All that time on making custom graphics is wasted because now they are not original. If you would like to talk about this more, make a thread in game development, but this is not the place. I also do not want a response.
