Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

MODERATORS
I do remember seeing one of their terms saying something along the lines of "similar games will count as one" for the purposes of installs+revenue, that or someone mentioning it. Can't seem to find it anymore, maybe they removed it? EDIT - Found one mention of it, "Games or apps with substantially similar content may be counted as one project", Unity probably went back on this one, as it's not listed on the FAQ right now
Though considering Pokemon Shining Pearl/Brilliant Diamond runs on Unity, I doubt they'd want to let such a high selling game go untaxed.
The terms have been changing every day, it's such a shitshow. Like maybe they should've discussed and ironed out the specifics with the community before changing everything idk.
'All games featuring left handed protagonists will incur a 50% fee per purchase based on the first 4 weeks of sales'
