Independent game studio Aggro Crab has made headlines with their strong stance against a Roblox game called Cliff, which they claim is a blatant copy of their successful co-op title Peak. In a surprising statement, the developers expressed they would rather see players pirate their original game than support what they call a "microtransaction-riddled slop ripoff" on Roblox.

Since its June 2025 launch, Peak has taken Steam by storm, selling over 1 million copies in its first week and quickly becoming one of the platform's most-played titles. The game's innovative co-op climbing mechanics, where players must carefully coordinate their mountain ascent, have earned widespread praise. Small mistakes can have major consequences, creating tense and rewarding gameplay moments that shine brightest in multiplayer.

Aggro Crab took to social media to highlight the similarities between Peak and Cliff, sharing side-by-side comparisons that show nearly identical visual designs and gameplay concepts. While the Cliff creator acknowledges Peak as inspiration in their game description, Aggro Crab argues the imitation goes far beyond mere inspiration, particularly criticizing Roblox's monetization practices.

Despite the controversy, Peak continues to thrive on Steam with a 'Very Positive' rating. The developers have kept players engaged with regular updates, including a surprising cannibalism mechanic that allows starving climbers to consume teammates for stamina. This darkly humorous feature, along with other quality-of-life improvements, has helped maintain the game's strong player base.
