Unomelon, the developer of Minecraft-inspired sandbox game Allumeria, says a DMCA from Microsoft, evidently related to Minecraft, got the game removed from Steam.
“The Allumeria Steam page is currently down because Microsoft has filed a false DMCA claim on it,” Unomelon said on Bluesky on Tuesday. “They sent an email earlier today claiming that this screenshot infringes on their copyright. I am taking a moment to figure out what my path is going forward, will update soon.”
The screenshot in question (above) is a simple wide shot of a forest filled with birch trees, what look to be oak trees with green and autumnal leaves, and a few pumpkins and weeds checkering the grassy dirt. There are definitely some similarities to Minecraft; if you told me this was a screenshot of a Minecraft mod, I’d probably believe you, but that’s true of many voxel-based games, including Hytale.
Maybe you don’t but if for the next month add a comment calling you one to every comment you make would you still not care? After all I’m just letting other people know of my opinion.
Aw. I always wanted my own stalker.
Oh don’t think of yourself that highly. I’d just set up a bot.
Imagine being so butthurt to put in the effort to setup a bot.
Imagine having nothing worthwhile to say so you resort to personal insults.
Stating you are butthurt is a personal insult? So strange you got so worked up over a minecraft clone.
You’re right. I got worked up over an insignificant being who has nothing better to do with their life than to annoy others. My bad. I’ll let you annoy someone else now because you clearly have nothing better to do.
I’m just sitting here waiting for that bot you’re setting up.
Oh you’re still going, nobody else to pay attention to you? Poor you. Got a little butthurt that you needed to downvote me? Maybe learn something about hypotheticals, I’m never setting up bots because that was a hypothetical scenario and it’s not like you deserve that much attention. Now run along, I’m turning off notifications because you clearly need the attention and I’m done.
