The real reason why Fan Made FNAF PLUS (LostPawPlay version) had an issue with Scott Cawthon and FNAF FANDOM as a whole - A clear explanation.


The primary concern revolves around the game's presentation as Phisnoms PLUS, a matter that has drawn attention from key figures like Kane, Scott, and others. One significant problem is the game's use of almost identical designs to the original FNAF PLUS, capitalizing on the hype generated for the original and potentially causing confusion.

Secondly, the fan-made version of the game closely replicates the FNAF 1 experience and is offered for free, a clear violation of copyright laws. Despite any attempt to frame it as a search for a purchased FNAF 1, this approach remains problematic, as Scott explicitly prohibits such usage. Furthermore, the game neglects to credit Phisnom appropriately, incorporating his designs and names without proper acknowledgment.

The third major issue pertains to the unauthorized use of Scott's AI-generated voice. This not only has the potential to tarnish Scott Cawthon's image but also raises legal concerns. The act of using someone else's voice in a fan project that mimics an official appearance already presents challenges, and employing AI to voice something further adds a negative element to the product. In this scenario, the use of Scott's voice exacerbates the issue, casting an unfavorable light on the entire endeavor.
The fourth minor issue involves the solicitation of donations from individuals supporting the creator's work. While donations are optional, the concern arises from the creator profiting from the idea of a FNAF 1 remake and using references based on another project (Phisnoms) to garner more views. The fact that this developer is creating a fan-made copy with the potential for financial gain raises concerns for the original copyright owners.
