Unomelon, the developer of Minecraft-inspired sandbox game Allumeria, says a DMCA from Microsoft, evidently related to Minecraft, got the game removed from Steam.
“The Allumeria Steam page is currently down because Microsoft has filed a false DMCA claim on it,” Unomelon said on Bluesky on Tuesday. “They sent an email earlier today claiming that this screenshot infringes on their copyright. I am taking a moment to figure out what my path is going forward, will update soon.”
The screenshot in question (above) is a simple wide shot of a forest filled with birch trees, what look to be oak trees with green and autumnal leaves, and a few pumpkins and weeds checkering the grassy dirt. There are definitely some similarities to Minecraft; if you told me this was a screenshot of a Minecraft mod, I’d probably believe you, but that’s true of many voxel-based games, including Hytale.
Maybe you don’t but if for the next month add a comment calling you one to every comment you make would you still not care? After all I’m just letting other people know of my opinion.

Aw. I always wanted my own stalker.
Oh don’t think of yourself that highly. I’d just set up a bot.
Imagine being so butthurt to put in the effort to setup a bot.
Imagine having nothing worthwhile to say so you resort to personal insults.
Stating you are butthurt is a personal insult? So strange you got so worked up over a minecraft clone.
