It is important to respect existing copyright laws when developing a game. One way to ensure this is to research existing intellectual properties before beginning development, familiarize yourself with any relevant fair use laws, and consult with a lawyer if necessary. It may also be beneficial to look into gaining permission from rights holders prior to the release of your game. Additionally, as necessary, consider modifying elements of existing games or reworking your own in order to avoid infringement claims. By taking these steps you can reduce the risk that your game will violate any copyrights held by third parties and minimize any potential legal liability.

It is important to Research all existing copyrights related to your game's content, as well as doing regular research and monitoring of any new rights that could affect your project. It is also recommended that you consult with an attorney familiar with copyright laws, who can help evaluate the specific risks of your game and advise you on how to mitigate them. You can also use solutions like Copyrightify, which allow you identify content likely protected by copyright and licenses within your game’s assets. It can also detect possible infringement risks before they arise from having access to comprehensive image search results through its network. Additionally, using music from digital marketplaces that offer the appropriate license for the music used is strongly advised; such as Musicbed and Epidemic Sound . Lastly make sure at every point in development; be it design ideas or released builds - are appropriately managed, tracked & attributed where applicable – making sure not lose credit or payment info in order protect against liabilities if needed down line post-launch when revenues start come..
