We recently discovered that a third party had obtained files from our game Guile & Glory: Firstborn, and attempted to re-upload it to Steam under the title Private Crusade.
In the course of investigating this, we also discovered that the same third party had stolen files from a game called Existence (https://store.steampowered.com/app/806550/Existence/) and re-uploaded it to Steam under the title Death Slave : You Need to Master Death.
Both Private Crusade and Death Slave have since been successfully removed from Steam.
It appears that the account is also claiming footage of your game Ersatz as their own, under the title Dynamic Dash, though we have not yet been able to locate a Steam page for any stolen files.

That third party is associated with the following Reddit account: https://www.reddit.com/user/CoffeeInevitable7002/

We just thought you might like to be aware of this account's activities in case the third party attempts to upload your game to Steam as well.
Please feel free to reach out if you would like any additional info, and best of luck!
