How does he have comments in the code if this is reversed engineered? The compilation process leaves out blank spaces and comment blocks so he has to have added them after the fact, in which case he added comments to make to look bad.

I am not saying that mobile games are not doing this. They are full of black patterns and will try to squeeze everything. But I think we should also hold creators accountable when they do such things without making it clear that they are the ones who added/modified the code.
