Heroic IP Secured: Superman, Supergirl and the Licensing Gauntlet

Field note: Developer confirms the grim calculus of using legendary heroes like Superman and Supergirl—DC licensing costs can flatline an indie budget before first contact with players. Result: studio pivots to original characters while preserving the same power fantasy and narrative scope. Logical outcome: control the IP, control the future operations. #gamedev #indie
