Wait... How do Trade Secrets work?
I thought that the individuals might be in legal trouble if they violate NDAs or No Compete clauses but that once the "secret" was out it was fair game.
The secret was an extraction shooter using DnD Classes. It's very unique and not derivative at all.
This has got to be a South Korea specific thing right? I thought game concepts were generally fair game
I think you're right but Nintendo's trying to change that in its fight against Pal World.
I mean, didn't matter if you build it on a codebase you yoinked
They didn't yoink the code base. That would be copyright infringement and the judge said they didn't do that.
If they stole the code that would be copyright infringement.
