🔒 About Piracy, Distribution & Respecting the Project
Added 2025-05-16 09:25:00 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
After trying different possibilities and reflecting on the current situation, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s simply not possible to change how the game is distributed in a way that would fully prevent piracy.
That said, I want to make a heartfelt request:
➡️ Please, avoid sharing the game publicly on forums, file-sharing sites, or platforms that promote piracy.
I’m not here to police anyone's actions — I understand that people might share the game with a friend, or that there are players who truly cannot support it financially.
But publishing it openly, where anyone can download it regardless of context, really hurts the development of the game and puts the entire project at risk.
💡 What I’m doing in return:
I also recognize that I must take better care of all of you — the Patrons who make this game possible.
I’m committing to offering more to encourage everyone to keep supporting the project directly through Bingus Bangus — and not through third-party sites that do not benefit the game at all.
⏳ Remember: Updates Are Always Made Public
Every Patreon version eventually becomes public.
If you ever see someone in forums or communities asking for the game because they can’t afford it right now or due to other limitations — please remind them:
They just have to wait a little longer.
This is a passion project, but it also survives thanks to your support.
Your help — whether by pledging, sharing kind words, giving feedback, or simply spreading the game in the right way — is what keeps Zendaria’s Corruption alive.
Thank you again, and PLEASE avoid distributing Patreon-exclusive content publicly.
With appreciation,
– Bingus Bangus
