neocities of all places. if i use ripped assets from a game and make a fan project (the aforementioned blue prince house builder), would i get in trouble? since the assets are copyrighted?
As long as you aren't selling it and it isn't in the same genre, it'll depend on the company but they probably won't care. Like, Pokefarm Q has been a P2W game mostly using stolen Pokemon sprites for 10+ years and has survived presumably because being a virtual pet / adoptables game vs. anything in Pkmn's genre means Nintendo doesn't think of it as a threat like Pokemon Uranium back in the day.
ive been spending the past few days cooking up a little project... its just a blue prince house builder lol, its close to finishing i foresee! just wanted to do something about the pretty room thumbnails i ripped
pretty sure you'd only get in hot water if the copyright holders decided to come get you; although it's still better to be safe rather than sorry
