I love the rubberhose artstyle, but this looks like a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Why would this cause a lawsuit?

Disney is super protective of their IP

The game is only using an art style. It’s not even Disney’s own art style. I don’t know why this would cause any IPissues whatsoever.

Unless you’re character is actually Steamboat Willy Mickey and the game is using anything or everything else from the short.

Steamboat Willie goes out of copyright in 2024.

Isn’t that the point though, that Steamboat Willy is public domain?

I’m not sure how this game would cause any such IP issues if it were to even release tomorrow. It’s not like the game itself is using anything from Steamboat Willy other than the art style, which Disney doesn’t own.
