Regarding Mechatronic's Mascots

Hello! I am really happy to see that another Robot Jam exists and that it sparks joy. However, I couldn't help but notice that the characters in your banner are heavily influenced by the mascots of the Robotic Romance Jam. Inspiration is good and okay, but we have a small request  with this in mind.

Could you please link to the older Robotic Romance Jam to give credit for the character designs? We do not mean to swing bats at a hornet's nest, but it is a bit jarring to see the characters Starbage and I made for the jam being used by someone else without our consent though I do not mean to say you did it out of ill will ^^; 

Thank you for your consideration. I hope the jam goes super well!

AH I'm so sorry about that, I should have noticed it sooner. I honestly didn't mean to take such heavy inspiration from the RoRo Jam's mascots, but looking at them now for the first time in a few months I see I made mine a lot more similar to them than I should have.

I can link to the RoRo Jam in Mechatronics, and I can also change the mascots? Again so sorry for the trouble

Thank you! I really appreciate you acknowledging it. And I understand, it happens sometimes as artists!

 Again, I really do hope your jam goes super well!!!! Thank you for linking RoRo (and also Short Circuit) and changing the mascots!!! I am looking forward to reading the entries and wish I could participate myself if I weren't already occupied during the jam's time frame!!! 

More Robots!!!!!!!
