Why ever would they have done that?  Because of their treatment in Adventure Lantern?  Explain yourself.

Made a game with the name Alien Awaken (small game maker game ) and they were going to see me over the name.

I'm pretty sure that was just an idle threat, unless there were more similarities than just the name.  I mean, did George Lucas ever sue President Reagan over the use of the term "star wars"?  Besides, I don't think a 21st century developer can hold a copyright over a thousand year old word, unless it is part of an original slogan.  Of course, the future may yet prove me wrong ->remember in the Futurama universe that the words "mom" and "love" are registered trademarks or Mom's Friendly Robot Company.... :P

Was anyone actually ever sued?  It sounds like a lot of cyber-bullying to me....
