Definitely. While parody is fair use, that wouldn't stop them suing if you came to their attention.
No.doubt....but if we get to that height, i'll have changed it twenty times already...the small things like the credits, warnings and mini games an shit are about the only aspect I'm able to freely be creatove about, even though I still run it past ivo.
I don't ever insist on me on him changing his work no matter what I think might be better for sales or even gaining a following of just fans and players, I refuse to do that...so thats my small little outlet for being funny and creative in the game and I keep adding to it as things happen (usually with the player base or our ideas being funny skits), I seriously doubt that part will still be in it very long. I keep all of it to do something like a side story type of deal down the road but I like to keep it fresh where it repeats when I have the time and a good idea too.
Even if I made a Castlevania style mini game I would be sure it was unique enough to be my own...I have no interest in copying something exactly thats been copied (usually poorly) 100 times before, I'm intending to add to the current mini-game already for that reason and i'll do the same with the cat one you've seen before. You can outright find the code for that game using AI...boring as shit.
The way I see it if we can ever get their attention, i'm already content with the games success...they can have my money as long as I have a decent place to live
