Imagine being a game journalist and not understanding game development to this degree.
Very cool. I mean it is Waypoint (VICE Games), so I’m hardly surprised.
As we all know, true solo devs write their own compiler, model file format, and more!

That’s all handled by contracts and licensing. If you solo dev a game using someone else’s rig, say from the Unity asset store, then you’ll have to follow the terms. So can solo dev something & use work you license from other people.

If that is a one way process - so licensing assets / tools - they it’s still a solo dev situation. If there is back and forth creative work, then it isn’t solo dev (but could be solo led dev, so to speak). And if it’s just customer service for those assets, then it’s solo dev.

Which, yeah, is exactly where the discussion ends. Credit and licensing agreements are where people are comfortable with that and saying, yep that's Solo Dev. But the Bright Memory dev stole/reworked (maybe) from the stolen assets. Should they be marketing as one person made it?
