The solo developer of a Spyro the Dragon-inspired platformer, which has yet to be released, woke up to find a very, very similar game being sold on the Nintendo Switch eShop under the name of a different developer and publisher.
For some context, Zera: Myths Awaken is an in-development spiritual successor to the beloved Spyro the Dragon series. Initially conceived as a fan-made unofficial sequel, it eventually evolved into its own game with its own, original hero and setting. Solo developer Cyreides went on an indefinite hiatus back in 2022, citing their mental health, but there's a demo available on Itch.io with a lot of very positive reviews.
