Basically, I randomly had the idea of remaking a game in GIMKIT, issue is the game has the other word for defeat in its name.

to give an idea uh the name is like this: ULTRA[word here].

I was wondering 2 things.

  1. am I even allowed to use this idea
  2. what word could I use as a replacement.

if you could help that would be very appreciated! yays.

It’s not like a random 6 six year old is gonna start yelling “defeat!!!” after seeing it on gimkit.

If you truly want a word replacement, make it something like “take down”.

Hope this helped!

The word is probably fine
we can probably trust you to not include actual “defeating” in your game.

gasp
You’ve better let me help on this game machine
You can recreate the game but not use the same name
But you could probably replace the… no-no word with ‘Gim’, so you get ‘Ultragim’.
This is generic ik sue me

This prison to hold me…

I mean, you can but you must follow the Gimkit Content Guidelines to avoid having your game be taken down.

The Gimkit policy prohibits the exact name from other real games. That’s copyrighting.

What Could be A Replacement?

I guess it can be ULTRA Sync.

The theming of the original ULTRAKICK is really not appropriate for gimkit.
Delving into literal heII the nether and slaughtering its inhabitants so you can feed on their blood just isn’t super appropriate for kids.
You’d have to come up with some other theme or completely redo the story if you want to publish it.

As for the name, ULTRA K.O. or maybe something completely different like PARRY would work.

I agree. You should keep the core mechanics, like dashing, Left Click+Right Click shots, copious amounts of parrying(if you can figure it out), and the others, while also reworking the story. For example, you’re descending through the layers of a top-secret military compound or something along those lines. You’d better keep Gabriel and Minos Prime for the funnies tho

That is what I was planning, I wasn’t going to actually do the actual game’s story, it was mainly just me remaking the mechanics and making some levels around it.

I think you should make another topic if it’s focusing on the game and help with it, that is, if you need it! You are a guide making guy as far as I’m concerned.

Did you get your answer to this question, though?

Edit: That somes that up then!
