Regarding FALSE copyright claim for song


Hi all :)

Several people, that have uploaded video of Eela on their youtube channels, have got a copyright claim for one of the songs. Youtube’s copyright claim system is crap and many 3rd party companies try to get around it and claim rights that they don’t have. In the case of Eela it’s totally false and it’s no problem to upload the videos. Just click “Dispute Claim” in the copyright notification and state that the game developer has talked with the song’s composer and has got permission to use the song in the game Eea aslong as he credits the composer (as he has done). I purchased the song and also credited Mattia Cupelli (composer in this case) as we agreed on. It is not he who claim the copright but a 3rd party AdRev. Don’t worry, fellow let’s players! All songs are royalty-free or have been purchased for usage. It’s just Youtube being…well…Youtube…

Here is a link aswell, where you can get a draft from the conversation between me and Mattia and you can add this JPEG-file in the Dispute Claim part if you want to feel extra safe :).

Been working lately on lots of 'behind-the-scenes' boring stuff that no one really cares about, so here’s a guy playing the sax for some reason.

Shoobies leave a sticky trail of mucus in their wake, which can impede movement for any creature that steps in it.

"Thanks guys for endless hours of fun." 👍

We made a lot of improvements on the Freezing Plains visual. Things like pine trees, tiny bushes, some rocks, and others game props!

Protege el conocimiento, salva la historia. Guardian of Lore es un platformer 2D en el que debes luchar para mantener viva la memoria de la mitología latinoamericana. El juego llegará a Steam el 18 de mayo: https://steam.pm/app/1211740 #ScreenshotSaturday

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)

One of the most critical update for Sunblaze demo. Now you are able to pet a cat! Finally!

Demonstration of the spells and their effects :)!

Hi everyone! I started to create some environment props for my new video game, here is a cozy house in the forest. I'm planning to switch from Unity to Unreal... Let's see what new challenges I have to face. Made in Blender and Substance Painter.
