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 :).

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)

Back in my art school days I used to ride the 710 COPSA line from Parque Del Plata to Montevideo almost everyday. This is the Marcopolo Viaggio G4 Mercedes Benz model from the late 80s, one of the older bus models that was running on the line.

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

Horror WIP A track that will be featured in a future horror game soundtrack! Stay tuned!
