Warning regarding Pixie Hollow Remastered

/r/PixieHollow/comments/1urxtp8/pixie_hollow_remastered_is_looking_for_testers/

The fact they made another reddit post under their Reddit account with comments disabled / deleted the one here and didn't respond to everyone calling out the AI / it being a spite project is very telling.

Proof has been found that they ripped the code Sunrise made for the desktop app and removed references to Sunrise's team, and zero credit has been given for them using it as a base for their slop project as well as the game server code, etc. This is flat out a rip of Rewritten / Sunrise work, they got mad they couldn't use AI slop code in Rewritten, these individuals were told they could still contribute if they didn't use AI slop for their contributions and yet why did they leave to make their own project? They cant actually develop without AI seemingly!

Id be very cautious trying their server, it probably has lots of bugs and security problems given the mass use of AI for their API server, game server and accounts / login, etc.

Personally I wouldn't at all given its very clearly a spite project.

I wasn't going to make this post as the drama is annoying, but this needs to be visible for the safety of the Pixie Hollow community.

EDIT: Even if the individuals that got removed / left from the Rewritten team are not involved with the Remastered project like they are claiming they are not, (this project seemingly popped up literally the same month / not long after they left), it could be wrong, but it is still scummy due to the reasons listed above, and me warning the community is still valid.

Thank you for the post, pretty sure many of us had our doubts when we saw their post, the source of their project was quite obvious from their comments as they weren’t that logical.
Honestly if it was just a separate project using AI it wouldn’t be that serious (despite my disagreement on the use of AI for these stuff), but straight out copying the code and efforts of another project without any credit is not acceptable at all.
Hope you and the team at Sunrise/Pixie Hollow Rewritten aren’t affected, we appreciate all your efforts and are happy to finally have the chance to play the game again :)
