I can download the game but it wont go on Delta so I can play it
Hi, just heard from someone that original assets from my ROM hack (CosmicEmerald Version) are in this game; such as several battle backgrounds and the “Space” map. Confirmed via gameplay video on YouTube from a couple years back. My star animations for that map are also used heavily. Could you add my name (SkyVortex) to the credits list? I had asked the original creator to do so before and I haven’t seen it anywhere this game is posted.
Perhaps leaving some links in this comment thread and photo-video evidence of those assets being original to your rom hack can help persuade SKR to put your name on the credits list? Trying to give you benefit of the doubt, as any can leave a comment asking for credit.

Here’s a link to an image of this ROM opened in A-Map 1.92, of the map I’m talking about. It’s a ripped and somewhat modified version of what I designed, and even has my custom ‘star animation’ tiles up at the top. I never even implied anyone could use it. There’s probably other stuff of mine in there but I could honestly let it slide since little of it is even original.
Look, I’m not trying to harm the creator here (and I don’t want anyone brigading them). I’ve had conversations with them before and they were never a jerk. We’ve helped each other out, and I also showed him how to insert the Battle Backgrounds used in this hack (which are also straight from my hack, but I actually said they could use them).
It’s just that after all the effort I put into designing that Moon map and other stuff, and all the credit I’ve given others for what I used, this just bothered me a bit. Having my efforts to kindly reach out get ignored was just insult to injury. Meanwhile, the one time I mistakenly plagiarized someone online, I got flamed and chased off, despite apologizing and fixing the problem. I was 13 years old back then.
The credits list I made for my project is massive, because I respected other people’s part in why it got any real recognition in the first place. It wouldn’t be anywhere near what it became without their help.
Also here’s a video showing my tiles in this game (including my animations), and making it seem like this hack completely pioneered an idea that was already in my project:

As a final note, I just want to reiterate that I have nothing against Struedelmuffin personally. There’s been no hostility between us, just a mistake was made here (similarly to what I accidentally did years ago). I just wanted to point out that my work is in an iconic part of this project and I got no credit where others did.
I hate to complain like this but the longer I waited the more I felt I should have spoken up sooner.
Maybe I just haven’t given it enough time, but no luck so far. That’s totally fine, this isn’t likely a huge priority when managing the site and I have no idea what SKR’s life is like.
However: “any can leave a comment asking for credit”? That doesn’t apply here. My own hack is on this website, and has my name as creator. It’s obvious what assets I’m talking about, since it’s literally one of the images used to showcase the game in the first place. It’s even animated too, so it stands out. It’s probably been on the source thread since before the hack above was even released.
Either way, I’m ending the whole complaint right here and moving on for good. Should have just listened to my gut, as there was never a need to go into so much detail trying to prove anything.
Shut up! Accept the LOSS!
He gave you no credit!
AHHHH!
LMFAO. My comment you’re replying to literally says at the end that I was willing to let this go and move on.
What the hell makes it wrong of me to want my name to be on something I made, that wasn’t intended to be stolen and used under someone else’s?
You have no valid argument, so you should take your own advice and put your greasy keyboard away.
hey, sorry for not getting to you sooner. There have been thousands upon thousands of spam comments on the site for a while and I’ve been trying to sort them out and get rid of the spam. I keep missing actual comments bc of them. I’ll add the missing credits today. thank you for your patience
Thank you too, I appreciate you responding to my request. I understand you can’t be everywhere at once, and dealing with spam can be very difficult.

Hi, i didn’t see any updates for this game, maybe you should look on the discord server…
I’ve checked the their discord server and unfortunately, there’s not a new update for this yet.
It says it’s impossible to accept the discord invitation, it’s weird
Is 1.6 the latest version? I remember there being a 1.6.1. just wanted to ask
HEY! WHAT IS GOING ON WITH UR GAME IT IS FREEZING NOW I CANT EVEN PKAY. Pretty good game if I could play it though!
I think this is alright if it was a randomizer it would be a lot better
Hey, this is game not updated..
when i download it said v1.1 mini update..
I’ve updated the download link, it should be the latest version now.
i think this isn’t the complete version bc there was another version with a lot of new starters
