Regarding Android Ports & Piracy in general
A while ago, I received an ask on my tumblr which informed me of someone uploading an Android port of my game on findapkmods, a website that seems to be filled with viruses & weird ads, and where other devs seem to have had their games reuploaded as well.
Please, don't do this. As an indie dev who has given her blood, sweat and tears to make my games during my free time, all the while having a full-time job, it's extremely discouraging to see this behavior.
I understand that many people want an Android port of my games. I'd love to make one at some point, but making one isn't as easy as it looks.
I also understand that many want all of my games to be free, but that's just not possible for me. I need the money to be able to make more games and to survive.
If you have any respect for indie devs and their work, I'm begging you not to pirate their work. There are other ways to enjoy their games even if you can't buy them without having to resort to piracy. Many youtubers and streamers make gameplays of their games and sometimes devs even make giveaways or really big sales.
I don't usually make statements like this but I've been seeing this for a while now and, honestly, I'm very tired of it. It's really demotivating to create games when someone basically spits in your faces and pirates them.
Put yourself in the devs’ shoes. How would it feel to you if something you’ve put a lot of effort into was stolen and put somewhere else?
PS: I want to thank this person from tumblr for letting me know about this a while back; thank you so much 🙏
