In some jurisdictions a minor can't knowingly contract with the knowledge that they can get out of it later because of their age... the parent might be liable if I remember correctly. Also, you might be able to keep the art if you paid for it? He can't just take the money, give you the art and then tell you that you can't use the art while he keeps the money I wouldn't think.
Who was doing the coding part? Is he in possession of a working prototype of the game? Maybe he plans to release it on his own so he doesn't have to revenue share.
and with your other thread, i think its safer just to receive payments after each assest is completed. its too much of a commitment having to work for long periods without pay and trying to put your trust in these people over the net.
Haha btw after I read the posts I had figured you had paid the guy. So no DO NOT take the pics. Just find another graphic designer. Let the kid be. ___________________________________________________________________________ I'm teaching an online programing course go here to find out more!!! http://gamesalad.com/forums/topic.php?id=31505
I agree with the post about having two-sides to every story. You're asking us to basically support you based on what you are saying. I think to be fair, you said you haven't paid any money to this person and yet they have given you all the graphics to the game. This is what you said earlier right? You said he was going to get a share price for providing all the graphics once the game is released. The game hasn't been released yet, and you haven't paid him anything, nor have you given him anything in return for all the graphics he supplied. Seems to me you're being very unreasonable, especially seeing as though you now want HIM to pay YOU for HIS work and you're asking everyone if you should STEAL his graphics. NO! you don't have a right to steal his graphics and if he wants out because he's a minor than just accept it. You said he wasted your time, but what about all the work he put in, developing graphics is very time consuming. Also you threatening to out his identity on this forum is harassment. What's interesting about you is I found your link online and I'd dare say that you are a minor also? I'd say get another artist to do your art and move on.

Ummm, do you let your kid use your entire YouTube channel and Twitter Account, and email http://twitter.com/#!/hapiapps ? because his voice is on all the videos? Anyway, I don't know who you are referring to, I just made my judgment based on what you have said. I think it's unfair that you are seeking compensation from a kid who constructed all the images and has had nothing in return, that's all. I've been observing the forum for a number of weeks now to get familiar with everything. Your thread concerned me which is why I have responded.

I believe I deserve compensation like either money or the images. Many images were made, enough for one complete game.
My opinion was based on what you said. To my knowledge it was a revenue share, the game has not been released therefore there has been nothing given to the minor. The minor was the one who constructed the images. It seems there has only been a loss to him.
hman360 said: I wish I was a kid again but thats my son. I let him do the review. He also uses Gamesalad.
yeah okay like were supposed to believe that. The fact is theres something sketchy about you. You never hear about this sort of thing happengin over here, but yet its happened twice to you in like a month.

Im closing this down. Its for your own good hman360. You appear to be working different angles all at the same time and your complaining about one avenue screwing you is only exposing your other angles and making you look bad.
Im gonna leave you with a bit of advice…
What goes around, comes around.
Bottom line if you ever want a chance at ppl not screwing you over, Your gonna have to stop screwing with others.
