It's set in the same universe, with similar humor & some of the same alien species as TFTG.

No. In the future, walking on streets will be outlawed.

To be clear--the planet is part of a 2D HDR skybox. Unfortunately we can't get it looking quite that good as a map model.

A lot of those signs are already animated, but we'll definitely add more before the level is finished :)

It's not illegal to shout the n word. A hate crime refers to something that is already illegal, like assault and battery or murder, that is determined by the court to have been done for racial/homophobic reasons. If something is determined to be a hate crime, the judge is required to sentence the offender more harshly (kind of like mandatory minimums for drug offenses).

This is according to U.S. law, by the way, might be different in the U.K. or elsewhere.

The first amendment protects freedom of speech from GOVERNMENT interference, not from private organizations like ModDB. ModDB owns the site and is well within their rights to remove content or users as they wish, just like you're free to kick someone out of your house if you don't like what he has to say. That's not unconstitutional.

Nice plug though :)

I think the idea is ModDB supports freedom of speech but isn't prepared to defend it. Which is a shame, but it's hard to blame a (relatively) small site for not wanting to get into a legal throwdown over one mod. It's not ideal, but it's not really surprising either. Would we really want ModDB to fall on its sword over this?
