Hello there. Full disclaimer : Developer here. saw this post through a google alert on FPS/RTS.

There's a new RTS-FPS hybrid which is being developed currently on Early Access. It's taking the genre in a way is more similar to Battlezone in a sense that you actually train AI units rather than it being 100% human players on the field. It's a 5v5 , and commander filled the battlefield with trained AI mobs while player are much similar to warcraft3 hero.

Re:We DMCA-ed our own game because it got hijacked by publisher on Monday January 21, 2019 @06:31PM (#18964642)

Hi there. I'm the original posted of the Reddit thread. I made an account here just to tell you this.

You are exactly spot on in the order of happening below. (1) publisher breaches contract (2) developer voids contract in response (3) publisher no longer has right to distribute game (4) DMCA takedown notice.

And yes contract was voided properly through multiple notices and failure to adhere to cure period. These were the life saving clauses that wasn't in the original contract but we squeezed it in last few rounds of negotiation.
