"If we go into Hazmat Area B"
*Goes to deviantart*
I've never heard a more realistic description of deviantart in my life.
DeviantArt is pretty much Chernobyl and the deeper you go, the more fucked it gets
Thank you very much for your funny and original comment, UA-cam user "AngryBirdNate06"
@Deon Denis is a DeviantArt member
What the fuck is Hazmat Area A then?

This made realize that the developer of this game is a mad genius, he created his own real life creepypasta
Oh god...
@@luckyducky7819 Not all geniuses are good people. Like Hitler.
@@YBNKASHWAYS
That is genius, he used the germans' depression and made them all follow him.
Yes, a genius, along the likes of the narrator in The Premature Burial or fucking Cain from the bible
@@1unartic Agreed he was a genius in that way. But he would have never got that power in the U.S. and etc he just happened to be at the right place right time
So he decided to break multiple laws and also be at risk of the FBI chasing him down all because he wanted people to not steal a oc.
That is very sad.
Well, the dude might be in a country where the government doesn’t give a fuck
@Retardus lardus Aparently Taiwanese cops are hella corrupt so i doubt they'll give him the time of day unless you slipped a couple sonic rings their way
He already did by making a fan game, so it wasn't that much a stretch.
That's dedication.
I mean I want the furries to be holocausted but god dam.
Yes indeed
So he got pissed for ppl ripping off the ocs he ripped off from Sega?
Essentially thats what it sounds like
Talk about hypocrite!
Hacker:Don’t steal my OC’s
Sega: *Hold my Hedgehog*
Not only that but the sprites he used was stolen from devianart
@@bobbythotimus1184
Woooow
Fun fact, the creator was ACTUALLY getting super protective over sprites rather than his 'oc'.
Ayyyy chris!
and you can find those sprites on the spriters resource on sonic battle section xD
Super Paranoid... Reminds me of... Ozcrash a bit
What sprites??? He stole those...
Yo
"Hey, thought you'd cheat on this single player game? Guess I'll take your credit card number and hold your identity ransom. We're even now, right?"
...w h a t
His problem wasn't even cheating, funny enough. The actual issue this guy had was with sprites. He did not want anyone being able to rip sprites he himself supposedly made for the game.
Problem is, almost all of them - in fact, I'd hazard a guess and say ALL of them - were not his. They came from other custom sprite workers, and any default sprites came from Sonic Battle/Sonic Advance. If he made any sprites, it was but a small handful, in a game built entirely on stolen assets.
He likely made the big ghosts.
@Creppersaurus Rex Confirmed, and some of the other ghosts were sprite renditions of, if I recall correctly, the ghosts from a Sonic X episode where Sonic and friends were being possessed by ghosts repeatedly. Likely, these sprites were not actually made by him, but these Sonic X ghosts did not appear in an official game.

"Never give a program administrator privileges." Uh oh, I hope I haven't ever done that, but it feels like I have at some point.
Do a virus research, *now*
Ther is this game called "Yandere Simulator" or so, which requires Admin as well for it's launcher / update BS.
Note, this doesn't come (came?) with a setup to place it in C:\Programs, nono, it drops in the same folder, whrre the launcher is - which has write access already. So I removed the manifest and it still required Admin privs.
KInda odd.
@@Sypaka
>Yandere Sim
My surprise is nonexistent all of a sudden.
One thing that I'll always remember about Yandere Sim, or rather YandereDev, is how apparently one time someone tried to help him out with coding the game and it was the poster-child for the term "spaghetti code," almost nonsensical and a lot of completely unnecessary lines
And then YandereDev got ass-mad when they proceeded to criticize his code and told them to fuck off
I'm no expert, but I feel like doing it for first party stuff like Adobe Suite stuff like Photoshop, 3D modellers like Maya, 3DS, Cinema 4D, or anything of that height of usage shouldn't be a problem. I'm pretty sure he's mentioning stuff you find on forums and storefronts on itch.io definitely don't deserve admin rights.
Saame. And not even with Photoshop or whatever, It was from some game i found on a ripoff of the samsung app store

Lol yeah and just rip it exactly the way it is, pixel by pixel, frame by frame.
@Gaming Fan Rio SPOOPY EYES XD
What I think is that the whole thing about it being DRM and even the claim about OC stealing is an excuse- a lie the creator told *himself* just so he can sleep at night, when in reality, the real reason he implemented so much shit is simply because he wanted to feel what it was like to have power and control over people.
We all have to remember that whenever it comes to authority and law, the term "work smarter, not harder" is not a convenience, it is a *moral obligation.*
Mutahar is the only youtuber that has the balls to do crazy shit
remember when he does this shit fam?
1.Sad Satan (almost vomit)
2.downloading real viruses
3.Surfing the deep web
4.Plays the LSD dream game to the end
yeah he deserves more subs
edit:yeah ok i agree that LSD is just walking and running
I mean he is one that does all of those thing but he wasn't the first for any of them on youtube. there are plenty other people out there that have done these things and better. Muta is just someone that brings all of it together.
He also solved a deep web ARG.
AKA Prom Nobody surfs the deep web better than muta though. He has over 100 videos about it for fucks sake.
I mean quantity over quality. Most of the "sites" he visits are just walls of text about things you can find on the clear web. Remember when he found a Serial Experiments Lain fansite on the deepweb? (which also has a version on the clear web)
Again he does good work but trying to make it seem like what he does is "crazy shit" is kinda silly when there were people exposing some of the nastiest deepweb sites on youtube before it became a popular topic. And My man Danooct1 has been doing virus stuff for 9 years on UA-cam.
I'm glad for the content Muta puts out because it is quantity but I'm not coming here to learn anything lol
The only people who consider what Muta to be doing as "crazy shit" are those who use Reddit. All of that shit you listed is normie tier nonsense, and its not his fault, the real "crazy shit" wouldn't bring any revenue on UA-cam.
Rather surprised the Sonic people don't hack him back for copyright infringement. Surely they can create a package that carries back to him that does something equally nasty to him.
I've disassembled the core dump of this after I have crashed it. It sends all information it can find in your pc to this onion address: 2gxxzwnj52jutais

Dan Salvato, I didn’t know you made a sonic fan game.
>9 months late but oh well
Ah yes, I remember that part in DDLC where you would get your private information leaked to some dark web corner of the net for checking the game files with Cheat Engine. [sarcasm intended]
The closest this game does is detect if you're recording with OBS in the near ending of it. Plus it also announces in the Steam store page that it's a horror game disguised as a dating simulator.
Sorry for my tantrum here but I really thought that mentioning another innocent creator and comparing it to some insecure asshole like the one who made the fangame would be a bit overkill.
Eliane Pinheiro Ah, I remember reading the tags and going “did someone troll this game or something? It’s not a horror game- WHAT?!”
Lmao
As a representative of the Sonic Fangame community, I apologize for that asshole's malware activities. Many of you might not exactly be aware, but we do have standards as to what constitutes a proper fangame and a proper etiquete as to how to handle it.
The really sad part though, is that this isn't the first time a Sonic fan has done this. Back in the day when Sonic 2 HD was still around, they only had one programmer who was extremely paranoid about people hacking the game once it released, and as such added in so much unnecesary DRM that it killed the project for several years before finally reviving last year.
Personally, the way I see it:
Fangames as a whole should not have DRM in it, period. IDGAF if you make Mario, Metroid, Sonic, or Pokemon fangames. You're taking and making shit that is not 100% yours to begin with, therefore recolors and remixes are not allowed to be 100% originally yours. That's why that remixes usually give credit to the original makers of the song, even though they were not involved in the remix however. The original source materials is 100% that of the company that owns the rights to the Intellectual Property.
It does piss me off that there's "artists" out there who take work that was already done by someone else and essentially trace around it and plagiarize the source material, calling it original and that it's 100% theirs. but otherwise, I do want people reading this comment to know that the Sonic fanbase actually does have a mature section that has standards and doesn't light up a stick of dynamite every time they see a opinion. In fact, the majority of the Fangame community *abhors* Sonic Gather Battle, often citing it as the absolute worst fangame of any franchise ever created. And that's saying something, as I've seen a lot of really terrible fangames from multiple franchises.
This is why it's literal hell to be a Sonic fan. You get associated with people like the person who made Sonic Gather Battle.
Which is a combination of fault - half going to those who are too stupid to know the difference between "some," and "all," and the other half going to apathetic people who don't see how those generalizing are part of, if not the largest chunk, of the problem.
Also hell being a furry. People find a fan base they don't like then they look at a tiny group that does something wrong to blame the entire community on
Nutpicking and making strawman out of them are serious problems on the web.
Dont get me started with Steven Universe (i dislike the show but i feel bad for some SU fans.
Honnestly, every fandom are shitty because of those crazy fans.
There is still good fans, just find them.
I'm glad you're getting the word out there Mutahar. I've been in the know with this game since the first time he released it and tried pulling it from the web because of "muh sprites" (which, by the way, aren't even his). Hopefully the justice system can take care of his scrawny childish ass.

You know, I was there when everything broke out. It was absolutely hilarious, I tell you. Back in the SFGHQ chat, peopl already knew about Gather Battle's dev, and most people knew he was kind of a jerk. He would constantly rant and rave about people using his sprites, and rarely interacted with anybody in the SAGE community, I'm pretty sure he was even banned from the server. Regardless, if you actually looked at what he was competing against, what he was basing it on, and the games before him, it was pretty easy to just write Gather Battle off as mediocre. However, when Zeroshift finally extracted the game, I was laughing so hard. The dev was an absolute madman about keeping his sprites intact, even though most of them are just Sonic Battle edits.
All in all, it was hilarious
*T H A T ' S A L O T O F D A M A G E !*
Correction, this guy slightly edited the original sprites that he "ripped" from the sonic fighting game and put the DRM there to stop others from "stealing" the sprites....sprites that he himself stole from SEGA.

"Funny thing is somebody still ripped his sprites. Why? Out of spite. And you bet i downloaded that just to spite him." -Cybershell
Really? He had a whole "protection software" in his "FANGAME" because he didn't want no one using his sprites of a character that doesn't even belong to him in the first place to begin with. He should've thought more carefully because you can still get the sprites by screenshoting gameplay and taking away all the background except for the sprite in Photoshop or something. Even then, people wouldn't go that far for some Sonic sprites, the creator was being way to paranoid about his sprites and he had to take it the extra mile. I can understand if its like a completely original game with original story and stuff, but seriously its a FANGAME nothing belongs to you except for the idea that brought you into making the fangame. Plus I actually think its pretty cool when people use your sprites outside your own game ya know.
KOMIC SOFTWARE the "Red Ghost Protection" part is alright, atleast without the Registry Testing, Browser Testing and all the invasive systems of it... but you should be able to ATLEAST reinstall the game (and fix it with that) and share saves.
InfiniteSauce I prefer the Blue Ghost protection for Cheat Engine blocking.
It should disable once you 100% the game
KOMIC SOFTWARE with the feeling you described about people using your sprites, I know how that feels.
the creator obviously has a psychopathic personality
> 8 months late
The sprite thing, you can spend hours designing the sprites and then someone just steals it in a minute without hard work put into it
It's art theft honestly
This Dev could have been someone: his fangame shows he is pretty good with codes, thus he could have been a decent Grey Hat Hacker.
Instead, he files a Drm hack because " ORIGINAL CHARACTER DO NO STEAL!". Hurrdurr.
GTdba wait wait what? No not a grey hat, they try to be good, and they hack for the good of people, but pretty often it's still illegal. He could be a white hat hacker, or 'pentester'(penetration tester). He still has a chance to recover from this stunt...
But I'll give you this - with how untrackable he is he could be a grey hat actually...
To Ordinary,
When I discovered your channel I watched your videos all day. They were so scary and interesting. They also taught me something, to watch your back on the web. Thank you for teaching me about these threats in a entertaining manner.
~ Jake
Give the developer a taste of his own medicine by renaming the game to “I’m watching you...”
Imagine being so insecure about your assets(which are literally recolors of existing assets made by SEGA/Sonic Team/Dimps) that you put a DRM so messed up in your game to Protect Them.
PROTIP: never give admin privileges to something unless you know what it does. Also, check the source you're getting the program from. Open-Source software (say Libreoffice) is unlikely to have malware when you get it from the developer's official site, and even if you were skeptical, you could always either compile it yourself, or read the source code.
I remember way back when when I saw a “sonic mmo” on mega upload and thought ayeeee sonic! So I downloaded it and the computer got locked down. Bet you azz I got beat that day.

lmao he's breaking the law just because he wants "his" sprites not stolen
i'm adding the quotes as he literally stole it off of sonic battle
I mean, simply making a fan game already breaking a law, but nobody cares about that because it would create a bad PR unless the fan game made a lot of money.
HE DIDNT EVEN MAKE THE SPRITES THE SPRITES ARE LEGIT ON GOOGLE 😂
Damn kids and their OCs do not steal! Back in my day they were called fancharacters!
OrdinaryPen Better name for it too since hardly any of them are actually original. A recolor doesn’t seem real original to me.
fan characters belong to a certain media. OCs are any characters, no matter if it belongs to a certain media or not.
Imitation is the highest form of flattery.
What irony that the OC creator who imitated sonic, doesn't want to be imitated.
Back in my day we called them recolors
Fun fact: They were actually stolen sprites of canon characters. Not sprites the game's creator made of their own OCs.
It's truly disgusting even after all this time that this person would actively mess with the hardware where of user's computers and let the game install a virus so his precious little slightly altered stolen sprites could have accommodation. They're sprites from a GBA game Sonic Battle he doesn't own the rights to them which makes it immensely scummy.
The Nex Reviews he also stole without editing a lot of Mario & Luigi super star saga sprites
U know u have a sad life when u gotta hide ur lame characters from the rest of the world.
Luis San lame STOLEN* characters
All this because the guy didnt want people to steal his sprites, which werent even original sprites but EDITS of the Sonic Battle sprites.
And the sprites were ripped almost right away anyway, this whole mess only got people to blacklist him and his game, and even more people to spread his ripped sprites out of spite.
Months, years spent making a video game and now its considered a virus all across the board and its all it will known as from now on and. Noone will ever want to touch it again
Good job.
It's really sad how many insane people there are in the Sonic Fandom, there's so much of them I would not be surprised if people didn't know that kind and good Sonic Fans existed too. Every fandom has their good and bad people some have it far worse than others, thanks for the heads up on this.
Why do I see the creator of said game being someone like Onision?
Possibly because the creator of SGB is toxic and unlikable like Onision.
What if he is?
But a comment said he lives in Taiwan.

I remember reading about that Sonic fan game. Those anti-piracy measures were a little terrifying. Ghosts and the creepy American Sonic CD boss theme? Those sound like a good reason for me not to even download that game.
I like the way Cities Skylines' developers approached piracy. They decided to leave it alone and they decided offering such a good experience from the original game that eventually people noticed they would have to go through much more work to have it going compared to the legit version. That's the way piracy should be approached, kudos to them.

I hope his OCs got stolen. Serves him right.
I would like to say that it's just an excuse and the real reason is that he just wants others to experience the game the way he intends them to and not have others improve the game with mods. But I'm probably wrong, and maybe he really is that protective of his fucking OCs. Don't underestimate how crazy a Sonic fan is. I would know; I'm one of them, and I'm still waiting for a remake of Sonic and the Black Knight.
As someone who played the game, I can tell you that the game was good, it's a shame that the dumb creator added viruses to it, I had to reinstall windows.
when you said illegal sonic fan game, my mind went right to this.
Just counter-hack the hacker
D O U B L E H A C K
Just hack his mainframes motherboards CPU lightware double frame AKR47 SSX2
H A C K E R M A N
But what if he counter- hacks you when you're trying to counter-hack him?
@@XxLew counter hack him back and repeat until he stops counter hacking you.
When steam asks “allow this game to make changes to your pc” is that the same to saying yes to administrative privileges?
yes, basically
by that they mean add the files to your computer. it may do some changes but usually harmless ones
uh oh
No, it's fine, these are usually driver updates.
Steam is safe, don't worry.
Hey mom, i'm on the video o/
"""Fun""" fact, the people are still working on it despite the whole thing, apparently
how are they (or at least the person who put the DRM in) not in jail?!
They don't reveal their identity to the public. That's how, lol
my boi
Well I mean...from what I gathered from other people's posts before this whole scandal unraveled, they said this game was pretty damn good, fun, and polished.
Maybe they aren't taking this whole thing as seriously as they should be, and are instead focusing on the actual GAME part of their game?
And who's to say the team isn't backpedaling from their mistakes and working to remove the DRM from the game?
from what i've seen, they refuse to remove the drm
it's continuing as is, like nobody ever reported on it
Actually it didn't start from someone stealing his characters it was actually from someone ripping his custom sprites for Sonic and Co. in the game which led to him trying to find ways to prevent people from modding or stealing from his game.
I love this
It’s like something out of a techies camp fire story
Beautiful
I immediatly got an ad, telling me to download the sonic movie
Download a movie?
i'm gonna guess this is that sonic brawl game that the dev got super salty about the idea of people stealing "his" sprites
yep im a weiner!
I heard about that too the guy only did that because he didn't want people stealing "his" sprites when the sprites are from sonic advance or sonic battle either one
The sonic community is why any intelligent alien life refuses to make official contact with us.
projectOMA seems legit
projectOMA When's the last time you talked to your Psychiatrist?
@Cyrsclin Nah, I'm just intelligent enough to know that aliens don't even know we exist, let alone know about our interests. We do a lot more complex things than this. Assuming I'm saying that purely because I'm a Sonic fan is beyond ignorant and illogical.
Not everyone in the Sonic community is the same this is basically racism

"There is no analysis possible for this title."
Not true at all.
You've only tried running it, not disassembling or looking at the data sector.
There's more to malware analysis than running it.
Can't wait to see you do it on your channel then
@@B3Band He's just saying that SomeOrdinaryGamers' statement isn't true.
I assume if he tried to, the protections would fuck him over.
Is that possible in the first place? If yes, it must be *freaking awesome.*
EDIT: Just to clear something up, and I hope Muta reads this before this leads into anymore unnecessary fuel to the fangaming community, the reasoning for the malware wasn't due to OCs, the closest thing the files in the game had to an OC was a empty file with the name of that guy from Sonic RPG. This in no way reflects what the rest of the community thinks or does.
Before people start spreading around that every sonic fan is like this, because people are that ignorant about the fanbase, let me say a few things.
This game used to be called SonicVSLf2, by a person named SonicBleachFan. He stole/made custom spritework that he was very defensive against. Even though most of the sprites are from official titles and various users (including some of mine). SBF is VERY ridiculous, threatening to hack people who confronted him, and resulted in Sonic Gather Battle.
Please understand that not everyone in the fan game community is some hacker. I see it already with people making hyperbolic statements. Then again, people are very hostile against anyone who even enjoys Sonic, so just heed my message.
TheHumanSonikku Sonic is for kids.
You think your smart, dont you.
Cody Lehr yes
I see. I may have to precede with caution then with my own fangames when it comes to ristar and other Sega titles
Some people just have no capacity for shame lol
What a shame. The game looks fun too
That and it’s pretty creepy
Its based on a gba game of Sonic Battle, play that and its already two times more enjoyable then the fan made game
MUSiCK ➈ Yeah I already have. It was a blast and one of the games I played the hell out of when I was younger. Unfortunately I lost the cartridge and my gameboy is broken now :(
A. Theil yeah I feel ya bro. Except my gameboy advance still works 😅 had a ton of fun with that game when I was younger.
The older versions had no viruses whatsoever, and it's kinda sad how he did this
MUSiCK ➈ reminds me of the gba Godzilla game. Except that one sucked because megalon was blue and gigan was...... Absent. More absent than my dad............

As part of the Sonic fandom, I apologise on behalf of the creator of Sonic Gather Battle-
Ayy
Plot twist. You are the creator.
Zip Zap Honestly, I don’t even accept the apology. This is BEYOND unacceptable.
*shrugs* i mean, its not the fandom persay, its one person who was an ass :3
Little Bunny Ruru Agreed. It’s like one furry shot someone, DOSENT mean all would.
Don't steal OCs from toxic people.
You will regret it
I'm a simple boy. I see "illegal" and I click.
Illegal
@@tasherxx_ you have a different generic ass pfp that every 9 yr old uses
@@tasherxx_ and youre saying that his/her pfp is generic, oh the irony
_But what if we Reverse IP’d him?_
_Oh my, oh how the hunt begins_
I remember seeing another video about this. The fact that the dude went through such measures to make sure his sprite edits weren’t stolen blows my mind.
" it looks like something out of Majoras Mask" i love this guy, making refrences to games about other games, i dont know but i love this guy
“Original oc do not steal”
The game was good... until the creator dicided to put a Virus in the game without anyone knowing about it, like, why would someone do that only for Sprites!?!?
The owner was pointed out for paranoia, I think, Correct me if I am wrong.
that sounds like what I've heard of him
TheNBALiveMobile God? Huh... interesting.
You know, were it not for the whole "the creator of the game has access to your computer, monitors your browsing sessions and has your IP address" thing, that would have made a very interesting, not to mention unique, anti-cheat feature- try to cheat or edit the game's files, and the game will go all creepypasta on your ass.
RogueOmega although I’m 99 percent sure it’s illegal and the creator could get sued
I just found this channel and I absolutely love it
Sonic Gather (all your personal information) Battle seems to be really insane...
This guy didn't get pissed about stolen OC's, but, from what I've heard he saw some people gathering ROMs for fan games and after many types of changes, redistributing them as their own, removing code equivalents of watermarks and replacing them with their names instead.
The changes varied from fixing coding errors, causing errors and killcode scripts, modifying engines to add or remove features, and many other ideas. the developer of Gather Battle used his DRM to teach the hackers a lesson and abused his coding ability. He is no longer welcome in any coding or game creating circles within the Sonic the Hedgehog fanbase and community.
@MrKlassic Amen to that
You keep bringing up chris chan. I'm begging you. Please read sonichu with your friends! It would be a great video.
I would die for this
Nah he should go through Chris' memoirs. Like, everything publicly available start to end. Make it a series. That stuff is wild.
Your profile picture is amazing.

The game is basically what happens when someone decides to make the "I have your IP address" meme real.
He didn't do this because people were stealing his OCs. This game doesn't have any from what I've seen.
He did this because he has skill in editing sprites himself and doesn't want to share them with anyone. The guy simply ripped the sprites of all Sonic characters from all Sonic games you can find on the GameBoy Advance and customized them. Giving each character different animations you can't find in the official games and made them exclusively for his fan game. For example, most attacks Sonic has in this fan game are from SSBB while they're being made from games like Sonic Advance or Sonic Battle, games that came out years before Brawl.
Since plenty of people in the community are into editing sprites and making either webcomics or flash animations with them, some people somehow discovered those sprites and decided to share them with the world, of course with big credits being given to him.
When the developer found out about the sprites, at first he started asking everyone he could find to get rid of them in a way that wasn't really respectful in the slightest, it was more threatening.
After this subsided, he started to ask for their deletion in a nicer manner until disappearing and eventually creating this clusterfuck that got removed from SAGE.
TL;DR
It wasn't because of OCs, it was because of the sprites he edited.
