Pretty sure Honey I Shrunk the Kids was first so you could say the thing you mentioned "stole" the idea even though it's not stealing.

lol Yeah, there's never been stories about people being shrunk and having to survive before. Ever, in all of literature--don't even look, just believe what I say.

They stole this idea from 3D Monster Maze (first game to have 3D environment). pretty blatant.
They stole this idea from UnReal World (first "survival" game). pretty blatant.
They stole this idea from King's Quest/Ultima III: Exodus (first games to have crafting). pretty blatant.
They stole this idea from Pong (first game to have directional movement). pretty blatant.

Need I go on or have you realized how stupid this post is?

Wow, you obviously never saw the movie.

Fun fact for honey I shrunk the kids. The original title was something different entirely. I think it's kind of funny. As the original name for the movie was...
(drum roll please)

Grounded!

The full story from wiki:

As the title Teeny Weenies seemed to appeal more to a child demographic, the name was changed to Grounded to appeal to a more mature audience. That name was later rejected in favor of The Big Backyard. Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, based on a line of dialogue from the film, ultimately became its title.

The film was heavily influenced by 1950s fare, such as The Incredible Shrinking Man.

Nice find Spiff! =D

Solar Opposites - premiered on May 8 2020.
Grounded - Released in Early Access on 28 July 2020.

You're right, Obsidian watched Solar Opposites, then decided to build a game using this "idea" in just 2 months & 20 days. /s

Maybe try doing a little research before making a fool of yourself next time. :wheelchair:
