A warning to all fan mod projects. Never comply with corporate.

"Do the announcement then leak everything you've done so far/make the repository public to make the project open source or only make the announcement once the game is in a state it can be released in" is what you should have said. After that happens you might be barred from working for the copyright owner, but other companies might notice you, like the AM2R guy that got hired to work on Ori 2!

Okay maybe that's fine too. But only if you stipulate in your contact that you can stay punk.
