- Splatoon is such a unique game! No other game could ever be like it! Truly one of a kin- Oh wait...
In this video, I look into a Chinese bootleg version of Splatoon called Paintman Go and even show off some gameplay and mechanics. It has a deep history of copying and ripping off Splatoon, and I go into that here! Splatoon is a great series, so of course a company is going to try to capitalize off of it's success.
This game has a rich history of copying of Nintendo, in fact, it used to be known as Sepia Go which was talked about a lot in the past. Truly one of the clones of all time. It is also somehow on mobile devices!?
How some companies are confident enough to steal from Nintendo is beyond me...
I want to mention that this game does have a fanbase. If you really like this game, I don't really suggest this video. It is heavily opinionated and I don't really say anything nice about it. That being said, this is not made to attack anyone. You do not have to do what I say to listen to me. This is all just my own views and you are your own person.
I DO NOT GO OVER HOW TO DOWNLOAD THIS.

The worst offender is the lack of falloff ink makes it horrible, that basically means that you won't be able to pain your feet and only the surface that the shot hits is inked
TRUEEEE. It was super annoying!! I should've mentioned that!
Pwo the more I find you the more I’m scared
it's you...
@@om.i yes, yes it is, you can't escape me, no matter where you go, youll find me
@@da_pwo why are you here💀😭
I think its worth noting that chinese bootlegs aren't only for cash grabs (though partially obviously), the main thing is that for a while pretty much every video game was banned, and even if you could import/pirate, most had no translations. So thats why chinese bootlegs are so common, or used to anyways, you see a lot less of them as restrictions have loosened up over the years.
Though it's also worth noting that splatoon 3 does have a chinese version now so this can now be considered a shameless cash grab
Very good point! It is definitely important to recognize that. Thanks for bringing it up!
Ok one thing it shouldn't have taken Nintendo so long to make a Chinese port for Splatoon
@@Bolt451It might not even be their fault I’m sure they would jump at the first opportunity and probably did
@@Bolt451there was no ique wiiu, and I think game consoles were still banned
“Mom can we have Splatoon”
“No we have splatoon at home”
Splatoon at home:
beat me to it lol
I kinda like the avatar of the old man in a dress tho nightmare fuel yk
It would be a lot funnier if I didn't already hear that joke.
Ah yes I love paint man go my favorite 😂
For once I can't really blame nintendo for taking shit down
In fact, I'd be really pissed at nintendo if they let this shit fly
I totally agree with you!
They did the same with this Roblox game called spla toon alpha that was created by noob9k 💀
@@Peachiegame LOOOOL I REMEMBER THAT GAME
And then make Splatoon Mobile
@@Peachiegame I would be mad about that but it was almost the exact same but more crappy so I see why they took it down
OMG. I actually played this Bootleg ver. of Splat, 6 years ago when I was 11. There were only 2 Specials, a rip off Bubbler and a rip off Inktstrike and like 4-5 weapons. It's actually crazy how this game has changed. Totally loved it seeing this again.
Yeah! It's really interesting how a game like this has lasted so long as even has memories attached to it haha.
I thought that said Splat 6 as in Splatoon 6 at first
"All charger gets splashdown" is the most iconic line I heard
I REMEMBER THIS GAME! While everyone was waiting for Splatoon 3, I found this game on youtube and dove a little deeper into it. Of course, I didn’t play the game at the time since I had Splatoon 2, but it was still incredibly interesting to watch and see how a mobile game company could completely rip off Splatoon.
I’m really glad this video came out lol. Paintman Go is such an interesting topic to me, one that I haven’t seen anyone else talk about yet. While it was a long wait (especially in the discord lol) it was still worth it. Also I’m glad you went back to the beyblade outro music again, that goes hard.
Thanks! I'm glad I'm not the only person who knew about this game haha
And yes Beyblade beats Chainsaw Man every time lol
i remember this game when it was sepia go from conner the waffle.
I knew about paintman go when it was called seipea go
I had no idea it’s pronounced “splat-tack” I’ve been thinking it’s “splat-attack” for YEARS 😭😭
Yeah!!! I actually have many recordings where I accidentally say "splat attack"! I had to look it up and fix my recording lol
Eye opening for me too.
Same😅😅😅😅
Same
I’m still gonna call it splat attack
This game reminds me of those old ripoff minecraft games where you’d get guns or something
Blockcraft ruled 😎
pixelgun 3d was one of them that i used to play loll
Hey you leave Pixelgun alone
I like the veemo smiling in your pfp
I thought they were just going to copy the concept of the game. I was shocked by the fact that the stages were also copies of actual Splatoon stages. I am also amazed by how similar some of the music is. Very interesting video!
Yeah I know right??? It's so crazy to me that a company just not scared at all to steal stuff from Nintendo. Maybe because it's only in China? I wonder what it'll be like when it actually releases in America.
Why did They actually put work into it 💀
@@NackSploon they got scared wdym they got striked by nintendo and had to change alot of their games assets
Bootleg games really fascinate me, I kinda love them for how absurd they are. I was looking for a high-quality video about Sepia/Paintman GO literally just last week but couldn't find much, so I was excited when this appeared on my homepage. Great video, man!
Aww thanks! I don't know if this is "high quality" but I appreciate it nonetheless!!!
I love how even the music is a bootleg version of splattack, someone spent time creating song trying to mimic splatoon instead of an original one lmao
Yeah ikr! I feel like even making a crappy song would've been better and maybe easier than stealing Splatoon music lol
I'm honestly surprised no one has made use of the original rabbit theme yet
Ooh i remember that, i even made a concept of my splatoon character as a rabbit instead
Or tofu blocks
There afraid max will hunt them down
The 3D character designs look super similar to the ones from Ninjala. I guess they had to find something else to ripoff or they'd have no game left lol.
At least the paint man losing section didn’t have the inkling boy banging his splattershot on the floor in sadness 😳😭
As an Inkbrush main, seeing that they ripped off the roller/brush losing animation made me feel pain.
honestly I could see nintendo trying to make an actual splatoon related mobile game
That would be really neat! It reminds me of the Splatoon Island hoax a while back. It was a fake mobile game but actually looked kinda cool.
Table turf mobile
Maybe a splatoon rhythm game instead?
...sometimes you find bootlegs, and sometimes you find *the entire freakin' pirate.*
I mean atleast if they just rip the whole game then your actually getting a good game. In theory
What’s wild to me is that Sepia Go is the first, well-known Splatoon ripoff game I’ve heard about, and seen videos of, and it’s STILL being developed to this day, under a different name now, is absolutely nuts💀
And yet, Crayola Scoot is also a close 2nd after this. (Even if I’m not sure if it’s even classified as a ripoff of Splatoon, or not.)
I’d rather play, or have Splatoon Island as an official mobile Splatoon game than Sepia Go/Paintman Go.
Too bad the Splatoon Island concept is BY AN INCESTUOUS ARTIST...
can’t wait for the next upload in 12 years
Make it 3
"Mom, I wanna play Splatoon!"
"But we have Splatoon at home!"
Splatoon at home:
The fact Nintendo just endebted some poor guy for life for homebrewing and selling consoles and this company got away with copying an entire game for 6 years.
Right??? I don't get their priorities
When you mention Splatoon's massive success at the beginning, I can't help but wonder why there was never a Nickelodeon cartoon based off of it...
Hmm... Ive always thought of a Splatoon animated series. After I watched the Mario movie with some friends, we talked about the possibility of a Splatoon movie and that would be pretty cool.
Lore maniacs are gonna eat that stuff up
@@NackSploon a Live action Splatoon movie with Chris Pratt Dwayne the rock Johnson Kevin Hart and Bryan Cranston.
@@mariocreeperlistenstoasmrDon't you dare forget Adam Sandler.
@@brksmiguel Adam Sandler as Marie of course.
i remember wanting to play this game when i was younger since my family didnt have a wii u and i thought it was just mobile splatoon
Tbh I think if people made some of the characters actual Inklings and Octolings along with their weapons that’d be cool
I also love how they have both a robot special and a robot form, geez, Crab Tank really has taken over
The wining theme is like the wining theme from splatoon 2, I believe ?
Oh really? I didn't notice, that's pretty cool!
This actually makes me giggle. I have had the thought of making a splatoon fan game bc I have so many ocs of so many species, so I thought it could be a fun passion project. But I fear it looking like this HAHRGHFJAG
Yooo! I remember this game back when I was in primary school 5-6 years ago... great editing, detail and commentary here :D
Thanks! I really appreciate it!
3:17 I thought you were gonna say "And that didn't age well" referencing covid lmao
Haha that would've been good! I sometimes get scared of bringing topics like that up but I think it would've worked here lol
Paintman Go is basically Splatoon at home
it’s just so shocking how much this game has stolen from splatoon, i’ve never really seen many bootlegs but WOW THIS ONE IS REALLY SOMETHING
I remember watching videos of a game like this, and I even remember that the "squidform" was a robotic bettle of some sort. It is just so funny to see all the extend of bootlegs, and honestly, it is kinda impressive the amount of work there. It makes you think that, to get a good game like splatoon, it took so much work and effort, so it feels 10 or 20 times better than these bootlegs.
The older version that had storymode had “piglings” instead of octolings, i have alot of information on the older version of the game if you wanna get into contact
I'll tell you what this horror reminds me of.
Ever seen those knockoff Amiibo cards that you can find online? Some do use official art, but others use some rather unsettling and uncanny drawn art that is meant to look juuuuuuust different enough to let you recognize them.
I bet you Rival Octolings are smarter than those Paint Man Go bots.
Yo true though
Apple once promoted a splatoon fake 💀😭
Are you going to talk about Square Enix's new game called Foamstars anytime soon? I've heard it's a ripoff of Splatoon.
I remember playing the hero mode in Sepia Go!
You couldn’t even get past the first stage LMFAO (it would bug out each time you’d get to the zapfish)
For once I can't really blame nintendo for taking shit down
Yeah! I'm on the side of fan games and mods but uh... This definitely isn't a fan game.
@@NackSploon The worst offender is the lack of falloff ink makes it horrible, that basically means that you won't be able to pain your feet and only the surface that the shot hits is inked
Not gonna lie, that more open looking port mackerel looked pretty fire
Oh man I haven’t heard about Sepia Go in YEARS. Never thought about it coming back until I got recommended this video.
When I get my Splatoon art project running again, I want to include Paintman Go and Crayola Scoot gear as an April Fools update!
Ooo that would be awesome!
splatoon 4 is looking kinda weird
Nah this is cringetoon.💀
I have to agree with you. Hopefully the rip-off would be banned soon
Yeah! I haven't even seen an English version yet, so hopefully that doesn't happen.
@@NackSploon yea
NGL I'd like to have a charger with splashdown, would be good to get rid of people getting close to kill you in the backline, as a panic button. But yeah it would be kinda useless most times, a bit like ink vac.
True! That's good idea actually. Maybe like just one charger with splashdown for those who want it! I just find it funny that every single one has it in this game.
Sometimes, I wonder how the people who stole all the video games and presented them as their own DIDNT get sued yet.
You have a very clean editing style. Keep it up, your channel has potetial to get huge :)
Ayy thank you so much!
Wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo went on a rampage and burn it to the ground along with everybody that developed it
The title reminded me of City of Colour/Maretime Memory. The giant robot special reminds a lot of the kraken.
Im not surprised that someone like you found the game
The thing about the dev team tho is The team who was working on the game from 2016 to 2019, they gave up on the game and gave the IP to the other dev team its also why the game has the "Hero selection" MOBA going on plus a different artist. As a person who played the older generations of this game in "sepia go" days Today i feel like this game has went to a very giant downfall in my opinion, i dont like the hero selection, i dont like how the games art looks.. I just kind of miss the older generations rlly. Also the footage you showed in 11:28 was from 2018-2019 build or most likely 2021 before "the hero selection" it still used to have the customization system. Anyway i hope this helped to clear little bit more information!
Wow! Thanks for all of that information!! That definitely clears a lot of it up!
I can really see that the game kind of had a downward spiral and was curious why. Yeah, Sepia Go was a clone, but it at least worked decently, Paintman GO just seemed so bad compared to it.
I really appreciate your comment! Thanks again!
@@NackSploon one more thing, the first Sepia go didnt had stolen assets but most of the stuff were made from scratch which its extremely surprising how they made the very accurate game models and they had a game tester and where they posted game testing videos in youku a video media website. Unfortunately the game tester had to go, the game also has bot players so dont be so surprised if the gameplay is very dull and boring since the game itself wasnt even able to be uploaded in other app stores like 9games, Taptap, or even 1499games (or 1399 games idk).
Remember Crayola Splash? Well we have found the sequel Ladies And Gentlemen. Your content is really outstanding for a small channel such as yours! I also like your little Splatoon original character as well! You should (now that i do indeed mention it) make a video about Crayola Splash if you have not done it already. That would be an amazing video for it. Keep up the good work. And i do indeed hope you reach your TH-cam Subscriber Milestones soon!!!
That first battle music you showed is just crackhead splatatack
Honestly I might give this game a shot. the connection seems a lot more stable than Splatoon 3. What's a few dozen viruses right I think that's worth being able to finish a match
Oh gosh haha. I wish you luck
It's a really fun game (if you play this game on pc) but you play against actual AI's tho
i actually think the character at 4:50 miiiight be a reference to ladybeard, a pro wrestler/singer known for his cross-dressing persona. tho it's still weird why he'd be referenced in a bootleg mobile splatoon game of all things
POV: September 9th, 2022 when the credit card declines
The group name in game is cephalopod nieces
Does anyone know if it's still playable? I tried it since 2016 and last year when it worked, I became friends with the developer to such an extent that he gave me diamonds in exchange for helping him with bugs. We even watched the world cup together but now the game was super hidden in the playstore and when I entered it I only saw It stays on the home loading screen and the developer hasn't seen messages for months or published anything
there's also another bootleg called Splatoon island. Where the adults are.. doing mini games in the pool. And the inklings or octolings don't have bones. They have ink instead, and since ink is washable (sometimes), they can drown and die. It's a trailer tho. it's goofy lol
oh my gooood i remeber sepia go i wanted that game so bad bc i didn't have a wii when splatoon 1 was out and besides an admittedly well made roblox it was my only way to play splatoon in its purest form lmfao
Ngl,watching this video brings me back to when i was younger...i was unable to afford a wii u for splatoon 1 and splatoon 2 i belive hadn't come out yet. So me and friend's would just records random lets plays episodes of sepia go from time to time. I understood that it was a bootleg (or at least i hope i did) but i just wanted a way to play some kind of splatoon like game. So thanks for reminding me about the fond times i had with this knock off splatoon game.
Also fun fact,back in the day they actually made the micro transactions so poorly,just clicking the button to buy gems and backing out i believe gave you the gems with out paying for them.i forget what version this was in but im pretty sure it was when they used splatoon assets cuz i had i belive every weapon
Update,so i went digging though my channel and found a video showcasing the money bug
Heres the video
m.th-cam.com/video/B1IT2QvNKGE/w-d-xo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB
,i also made a playlist of my gameplay if anyone is curious about it,just mute the audio since i cringed alot re watching them years later but heres the playlist as well
th-cam.com/play/PL4Br6RDPmPv0N70UCV4WIzLULgMub42X-.html
I remember back when only splatoon for the wii u was around and I loved it so much. I also remember watching some footage of sepia go and I felt physically ill, it was so draining to watch
A bit dramatic, but there’s something just so weird and uncomfy about seeing a crappy soulless version of something you love. I immediately had to get a dose of real splatoon to feel better
The person holding that octobrush is me
7:25 Ayo this kinda goes hard
I watched the background gameplay, the double splat with the bomb was insane.
Sizzle season is making splatoon 3 even better
The art at the start is pretty cool though, I like the pink girl
"The win theme wasn't a copy of anything"
**cough cough** *Splatoon 1 win theme* **cough cough**
2:49 wait I love the font WHAT IF THEY HAD MAPS WITH LUNAR NEW YEAR THEMES AUGHHHHH
Off topic, but I read it as Pokemon go, and I was like "but that's completely different-"
Haha yeah I wonder why they added GO to the name like that
@@NackSploon I wonder as well, also I looked the game up, I found more cash grabby Splatoon like games, tempted to get this one, but nah-
Ok but the shop theme remix in the menu goes hard ngl
i had no clue there were bootlegs?!? 😭
Ikr??? It's so crazy that companies try and rip off Splatoon
I wanna see someone beat DJ Octavio in Sepia GO
I hope that you’re doing well❤️ discovered you a few months back and I really enjoy your videos. I hope everything is okay💕
Thank you! I am doing well! Glad you enjoyed!
2:58 that sounds like the McDonalds training game menu music
First time watching one of ur vids. REALLY wasn’t expecting the Beyblade Metal Fusion theme song.
I re downloaded roblox to play the bad splatoon on roblox. It was so funny. But got removed, shocking
Haha yeah I wonder if I should try to make videos about them one day!
Still better than whatever this is
5:50 I am pretty sure thats just a ripoff kraken considering that the “squid form” is a robot
Possibly! The weird thing is that it isn't even a special! The roller still has a special and that for some reason.
I remember playing this game with a friend on discord.
*Still doesn't understand the hate towards Wahoo world when it is better than 80% of current Splat 3 stages.*
True! Honestly Wahoo isn't the worst! I just like the joke of hating on it haha
"If you have splatoon just play THAT and be happy"
Me who's a playstation person and doesnt even have a switch:😔
damn, last time i heard anything about paintman go was ~2 years ago, cant believe it's STILL kicking, it's like the small robot cockroach in the corner, it's there and cephalokind just ignores it hoping it'll go away but it never does.
i had a surprising amount of fun playing older versions, admiring how much effort went into a bootleg, and i once again admire it's resilience and refusal to shut down. it's such a fascinating bit of software.
2:18 WAIT. I THINK I WAS PLAYING AGAINST YOU HERE. If I was omg that's kinda dope!
Yooo that would be cool! If so, nice to see you again haha
@@NackSploon You to! Haha
I was one of the players who played Paintman Go on my phone back in the 2017-2018 it was honestly fun but deathmatch was honestly hard LMAO.
Funny how I watched this this morning, then forgot about watching dis-
I remember dollar tree splatoon back in 2018, goofy little thing
I have to play this, how do i download it
The robot droid is soo goofy. I want it
6:38 paintman go just sped it up istg
Paintman Go and Sepia Go. The deceiving duo
No no no, Wahoo slander is ALWAYS acceptable. We should have let the Salmonids have it 😊.
You know what fuck it. It may be horrifically deformed but it's Splatoon on my phone and it looks funny as hell lmao. I love shitty mobile bootlegs
Cant wait for the not rip off FOAMSTARS 😊
4:50 As an octobrush main I apologize and am offended by this abomination.
It's like if you took Splatoon but sucked out everything that made it fun and unique
When will you do more live streams?
Hm.. I normally do one every event! But I've been thinking about just doing them for fun with viewers on normal days and stuff.
I saw it before but I would never let myself reach a new low
The winning theme sounds like the guitar riff from the first Splatoon's Victory! theme.
I remember first hearing of sepia go fucking years ago (when my parents wouldnt get me splatoon and i was looking for free app versions by surfing through yt), so i audibly gasped when i heard that this spawn of satan was originally sepia go-
Is your outro the bayblade theme?
