It's not related to food or consumables. The spout is not hollow. This was used for fun.

Guess the object, if you're correct post one for us to guess and so on.
Rules may change as we progress..

Here's a guess (try to be as precise as possible):

I'm no legal expert but that defence sounds a little flimsy to say the least.  Anyway I hope it goes well, must be nerve-wracking for you!!

lol Dave if you heard their claims you'd be surprised how fun this lawsuit is going to be.

I haven't checked on this thread for a while, but when I do, I see you're in a legal battle.   :shocked:

I'd ask what's going on, but I think I already do, since I remember the Star Trek debacle. I just can't believe it's escalated this much.
Good luck AnasAbdin. I can't imagine how horrible this must be making you feel, but I know you can win.  :-D

Thanks Danvzare for the kind wishes and support  :-*

Good luck with this new judge, man.

thanks Stu! She's awesome.

Here's an update from my blog:

Yesterday, January 8th, the judge had a pretrial hearing in her courtroom with all lawyers involved. The meeting resulted in very positive outcomes that help find the truth and serve justice. The defendants request to dismiss the case based on it being a "frivolous claim" was not entertained by the judge. The defendants' argument kept going around me trying to own copyrights to the real life tardigrade (I never claimed that).

The judge set the timeline for summary judgment motion which means that the defendants attempt to dismiss the case is limited to actual legal defects instead of generic claims.

The judge also gave us 'discovery' which means that we can request and the defendants are compelled to provide information to support our case.  The discovery order was only one sided which means that the defendants cannot request information from us.

Finally, the judge granted us the third amended complaint as of right.  This means that we no longer need the expressed permission from the defendants to file the third complaint.

thank you dactylopus so much!

Jack: thanks! Sending trolls to poison online chats and debates is one thing, but using the same tactics with courts is a whole new level.

One thing worth mentioning is what they also said in the joint letter. They said that the tardigrade was only on screen for a few mere minutes and only appeared in 2 or 3 out of the 15 episodes. Because a threshold is also crucial to determine the amount of plagiarized meterial. We did mention that they used the tardigrade's DNA as a proxy on the rest of the season. The abilities they got from the tardigrade was the main plot for the entire season.

BTW I finally noticed the little detail in the translation gif. Brilliant. :D Going to keep it that way?

Haha thanks! Yeah it stays, it's not going to be for every line though, there are several little jokes here and there  ;)

Here's an important quick update on the legal part of the production of the game.
A few weeks ago a new judge was assigned to the case, the first one left without giving reasons. The new judge asked for a joint letter to be delivered January 2nd. My lawyers and the defendants lawyers worked on the letter and it was sent on time. Before that letter, the defendants sent the old judge an unofficial letter stating that I am trying to own copyrights to a public domain "real life microscopic living organisms", we replied and their unofficial letter has no effect at all. Up until this moment and on the official sent joint letter, the defendants are still claiming that I am trying to own copyrights on "enlarged tardigrades in space". I never claimed that. They are constantly misleading the court by omitting the color and functionality of the creatures in the game.

Also they are playing the "Scènes à  faire" card, which simply means that in a sci fi show, you can safely use standards such as a spaceship, a space captain, engineer, alien... however the expressions are protected (pointy ears.. rigged foreheads.. etc..) like in a western movie (fast draw and bar fights scenes..)

In a couple of days, the judge will have a meeting with both side's lawyers.. It's gonna be a big day  (roll)

We have just migrated the site and forums to a new and shiny server, and I have completely rewritten the AGS site.

Thank you for the great effort and the time spent <3 <3 <3

And that's another fantastic background!  Just enough movement to feel alive without being overwhelming.

Thanks! Just wait until the natural sounds kick in!

Maybe I'm late to the party but I'm just now noticing the copyright symbol along with the title?! Is this good news that I have missed out on???

Yep, everything posted regarding this project is copyrighted (concept, story, characters, images, videos...)

Fantastic work with the latest nature backgrounds, they look truly gorgeous!
And it's impressive to see that there's so many translations, even AAA games cheap out on those more often than not.

Thanks Blondbraid! AAA games? Meh.. we're all here above that...
We..
Are..

I've been implementing the script for the Italian translation!

Seems like signore Carter is taking the Italian language a little bit more serious!
