The team behind indie hit Peak would rather its community pirate its own game, than play a "microtransaction-riddled" ripoff that has appeared on Roblox.

Peak’s creators are so annoyed by a near-shot-for-shot Roblox clone called Cliff that they’d rather fans pirate the real game than waste time (and money on microtransactions) playing the “ripoff slop.” Cliff lifts Peak’s art, first-person climbing, stamina bar, even the airport lobby, yet packs in pay-to-win gimmicks – prompting Team PEAK to publicly bash it on X and urge players to stick with the indie original.

Oh, and if you’re wondering what Peak really has in store, last month the devs quietly rolled out a cannibalism feature so you can literally eat your friends. Now that’s original.
