GameOptimal Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 I came across a publisher that seems to be taking html5 games and exporting them to the windows app store without developer consent. They have two of my games and games created by other devs on here such as Zombies can't jump, Fly Trap,and Caravan Sokoban. I have not licensed my two games under softgames or any such publisher that has the rights to place the games on the windows app store. This is just a heads up message for anyone that has there game stolen by these games. I was also wondering if anyone has actually worked with these guys? Link is here, the publisher is apparently called "One Team", with the developer name Hamdi:http://allaboutwindowsphone.com/software/developer/ONE-TEAM.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex_h Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Hmmm thanks for posting here, I see one of mine is on there too. Pretty sure this is not legit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameOptimal Posted January 8, 2015 Author Share Posted January 8, 2015 It's probably not a legit publisher. I'll have to contact the windowsphone support sometime today, or tomorrow since its quite early in the day for me to do anything about it.

PlayToMax Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 The same issue with three our games. Contacted Windows Phone Store Team and 'One Team' directly, waiting for feedback from both two sides. GameOptimal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolarJS Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 If you contact the Windows Phone Store directly with a DMCA complaint (and all do it who found their games at this "publisher") he will get banned from the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tumira Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Check if your games are here. http://www.html5gamedevs.com/topic/11583-people-are-stealing-content-from-nugplay-or-nuggeta-beware/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nika@Tresensa Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Thanks for the heads up, we just noticed a lot of our games there. Our operations team did some reasearch: Copyright infringer's page on the Windows Phone Store: http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/store/publishers?publisherId=ONE%2BTEAM&appId=37fd100f-cc85-4bfc-a38a-08055f747efd Information on reporting a copyright infringement: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/jj215905(v=vs.105).aspxThe relevant part for us: "For copyright, trademark or publicity rights infringements complaints across multiple apps, please submit your request to [email protected]"Hope that helps!

GameOptimal Posted February 3, 2015 Author Share Posted February 3, 2015 Has anyone received a response yet? It's been 2-3 weeks since I contacted the support group. The games are still on the developers account and it seems as though they are stealing more games.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
