They did steal artwork, but the whole aesthetic wasn’t stolen… the stuff they stole is a very small part of the game (I’m pretty sure, haven’t and won’t play it). I’m in no way defending them, but saying the whole aesthetic was stolen just because they used some text and icons from someone istället just dumb.

Much of the aesthetic was clearly inspired by The Designers Republic

Every game’s style is inspired by something else. For example, Sable has a great style, but it’s largely inspired by Moebius, and that’s OK, and actually encouraged.
There is nothing in this world that is not inspired by previous experiences.
