Sidescroll shooter art

by Chris Labombard · in Torque Game Builder · 01/11/2006 (6:43 am) · 6 replies

Who owns the rights to the sidescrolling shooter art? There is a shield pickup that I am using in my game (it's the music beat for The Funk). I've created a few different ripples and animations to replace it but everyone I talk to thinks the bubble makes a better beat.

Who do I have to talk to to obtain permission to use it?
