Independent developer Rado Klasa is speaking out after claiming a new title, Potato Please, is a blatant, AI-generated rip-off of his own project, 1,000,000 Potatoes. Both games feature a Soviet-style, horror-adjacent, physics-based potato peeling premise, but Klasa argues his hard work was bypassed by a “rushed clone” created with simple AI prompts.
Golden Horn Studios has denied the allegations, stating their game was developed independently from internet memes and that they were unaware of Klasa’s project. However, the online community remains skeptical, with some Steam curators already flagging the game as an unauthorized copy.
