If I were in IKEA's shoes, instead of suing / sending a C&D I'd lean into the parody and say "hey, we're cool with this as long as we can sell boxed copies in IKEA stores". Indie dev wins, IKEA wins, win-win.
Instead, indie dev loses, IKEA loses (and looks like a bunch of humorless jerks), lose-lose.
