In the French law it would not be an infringement if it is 2 companies doing 2 things completely different, or 2 products completely different.

But here Sim City and City Sim are 2 similar games: a city building game.

The owner of the trademark of Sim City will not attack, because the game here is not sold, and will probably not become famous.

See examples here:

https://corsearch.com/content-library/blog/nine-nasty-trademark-infringe...

See the examples: Freddocino similar than Frappucino, and 3N similar than 3M.

It's very obvious that City Sim, is similar than Sim City

On the page below, they explain that Apple Inc, and Apple Corps, are not infringe because one is in the computer area, and the other one in the music area (so it seems that it's similar than in France)

Hello Tadster, your game is nice, it would be nice if you release it under MIT license like the lib that you made and use for the game.

Also I think that you should name your game just "Idle City", because "Sim City" is a trademark.

Thank you for this game, and thank you for posting here.

Hi NoteOfMseirSire,

What would help me could be someone that would make some kind of "coaching" for my mini-projects.

It's not that easy to stay motivated long enough on a project to make a project that will be valueable for someone.

I really don't need that you spend 3 hours by month, something like 10 minutes when you're in the mood to would be enough.

Basically the task would be to encourage me to go further and congratulate me for the progess when I make some.

And ask me from time to time which steps I made.

You can also give me some advices, ideas, comments or anything you feel could help the project. You could also give me some pointers to some interesting project that you think could give me some ideas.

If the project reach some point that it could interest some gamers, you could also help me to make some marketing. I don't expect to be able to make a living of it, but if you're able to coach me in a way that some income are done, I will of course share the income with you.

In the past I made 3 mini-games:

http://decapode314.free.fr/ocaml/chipmunk/rolling-moon.html

http://decapode314.free.fr/ocaml/Tetratta/

I made each in about 2 days.

These days I'm trying to work on some variants of a shmup:

And I've also started a platformer (it's only an early step):

OK, I edited the initial post to remove the link to the "no-war" manifesto from the Ukrainian Itch.io user that contains political content.

Yes Bonsaiheldin is maybe not a spammer, it can be someone that bought his domain after, and this person put a redirect to catch old links instead of leaving a 404 error.

I remember I saw two other links like that too, but I didn't rember where (there is no report button near comments, and I should probaby not use the report button on the user's page).

Also one message from me in the thread about the public domain has been deleted. I don't think my message was off topic, could you tell me what was wrong with it?

This one, I don't really understand what it is, but it look like a product sold:

It's not a game like it is said on this page:

I noticed a typo in my first message

"that this was ends"

should be

"that this war ends"

Sorry, I'm not doing any politics here.

I just noticed an OGA user was from Ukraine. And I'm worry for him.

Most OGA users probably also like Itch.io, and I also noticed another user from Itch that is also from Ukraine.

I even put a warning if you don't like politics that the narative game from this Itch user contains some.

A lot of users on these websites use nicknames, maybe there are others that are still with us on these websites while being in a bomb shelter. Maybe some of these will or already have disappeared, and we will not notice it that much because it's not visible on their profile page in which country they are living.

We all share interest for independant games on these websites and we are some kind of "web friends" I think (I hope). I'm really sorry when I know what is happening to them.
