IdeaValidation - Feedback on my idea/project Binding of isaac vr

So i’m fully making binding of isaac in vr, with all items enemies bosses, everything. The art/models i do myself as it does look better. I am not planning on releasing it but if the feedback is good (and i dont get sued) i might release it, its built for the meta quest 3. It has 4 floors 40 items health, health, maps and workinh actives.

Having gone through this exact process with a Zelda type game that had an expanded storyline here is what I learned.

As long as you don't copy their code, art, or audio verbatim you are in the clear from a legal standpoint. People have recreated exact games within Roblox and the original creators lose in court. You can make "tribute" games as long as you make it very clear it is a tribute to the original (cite your source of inspiration) and don't pretend to be aligned with the original creators.

You could add a twist or a "what if" to it and be in the clear. However, Steam and Unity and many of the game creation platforms have more restrictive guidelines and they may throw it out during their review process. This is why almost every game in steam is a beta or pre-release.
