I am now an Unreal Engine developer. Even if Unity Engine walks every word back how could anyone trust them again? Do we continue on where at any moment they can retroactively change the rules? I will not live under that fear. I'm done with them. Deets

Looks like it is Kim Kaphwan's day! Got me thinking about his KOF15 outfit in NeoGeo Pocket Color style... There's a lot of small details so I had to reduce it somewhat to fit
