    Nope, it's correct the way it is. Proper nouns still have 's even if the noun ends with an s

    Grammar lesson time...

    If you have a plural noun such as cats, then in possessive form it would be cats' undisputedly.

    But Cinfras isn't a plural noun, rather it is singular with an "s" at the end. Thus, either Cinfras's or Cinfras' works based on writer's preference.

    Depends on style actually. It's correct with or without the last s. The scenario you're thinking of is when the thing is plural, which doesn't apply to this.

    i'm more concerned about the peculiarity of the appearance of that apostrophe given the pre-existing apostrophe image that is located in the font spritesheet; the grammar's correct

    no, when you need to use the possession s you put an apostrophe after the last letter and after that an s, if the last letter of a singular noun is s, you put the apostrophe after it and nothing more, if its plural, you do the same, you dont add another s after the apostrophe, thats what i studied anyways.

    It's always apostrophe and then an S unless it's plural and ends with an S.
