Bluesnow?

Does anyone know why Bluesnow [the creator of Yukkuri Diary and Yukkuri Breed and Collection] set all his youtube videos to private? Also, I can't seem to access the website where you can download the PC version of Yukkuri Breed and Collection.

I'm just surmising, but it may have to do with TPP threatening doujinshi and fandom.

UPDATE: This is the latest comment from Bluesnow regarding the takedown (original text):

Bluesnow said:
たとえどういった動画でも、
自分のゲームがプレイされているというのは、作者としてはとても嬉しいことです。

ただ、
そういった部分だけがクローズアップされた動画が目立つゲームはいずれ、批判の声が高まって消えていくといくだろうと思っています。

ですので自分としては、なんとか表現方法を工夫して、
どんな層のプレイする人も、動画を作る人も、それを見る人も
全てが楽しめるようなゲームへの変化をいつか実現してみたかったのですが、

それは行うには遅すぎたと後悔しています。
すべては自分が悪いです。

今はまだアップデートの作業は続けていますが、
同時にアプリを削除する可能性も視野に入れています。

/////Black texture bug/////
This bug seems to occur with the latest version of unity(5.2.x). And old devices.
I will change to the old version

Per the translation from ruukasu's post, it looks like for now game development continues, but the games might get pulled at some time.

Why would they get pulled?

I guess he's afraid it might be considered a copywright infringement? IDK how Touhou Project is protected in Japan; actually, I thought ZUN was kinda OK with fanwork. Maybe in some countries outside Japan, there is companies with marketing rights?

Yeah, but by that logic, games like SimYukkuri would get pulled down too.

Who knows; maybe it'll come to that. Nobody's removed anything, yet. Bluesnow may just be cautious. Or he may know more than us.

I hope everything works out for the best.

From what I heard about an interview with ZUN back in March, he openly opposes TPP. He added that he will defend any doujin artists even of which derivatives he despises. Translation source: https://www.reddit.com/r/touhou/comments/2zza8h/during_the_recent_niconico_stream_zun_answered/

That's our ZUN.

nothing to do with TPP, he took it down because people keep complaining about it.

I recommend sending him words of encouragement if you want him to keep updating the game.

Complaining like, "OMG YUKKURI ABYUSE IS EVIL!!1" or "This game suks n00b go bak 2 programming skool"?

no clue, he just says the videos were uploaded elsewhere and he got a lot of negative feedback.

Oh brother...

I hope it's not coming from anybody here.

Well, sending words of encouragement would probably be a good idea game or not, such messages could really make someones day and send em happiness. Kinda new to this, so I wouldn't know much, but how do you contact him anyway?
