#12Oops! I didn't know the game got HN'ed. I was improving the details adding license info, you can find them there now.
It's still uncool to do that so blatantly, you should at least take this as an opportunity to develop your creativity and use what you've learned to drive something of your own making.
It's a nice job you've done, but I'd like to see you put your skills to use creating instead of imitating.

"I respect the original creators Igor Pusenjak and his brother for their great work."
Uhhh no you don't. This is textbook copyright infringement. You can't copy without permission and then claim you respect them. That's not how things work.

#16It's one thing to make a Doodle Jump-like game. But this is being called the trademarked name Doodle Jump, and you've copied the artwork straight from Doodle Jump.

Igor and his brother. Igor is a very nice guy: http://allthings…
It's one thing to make a Pacman-like game. But this is being called the trademarked name Pacman, and you've copied the artwork straight from Pacman.

Here are the guys you are ripping off. Tōru Iwatani and his friends at Namco. Tōru is a very nice guy:

If he has created the art in photoshop himself, then no copyright is infringed even if they do look very similar.
As for the name, this will only matter if the original name was trademarked. If not, he can call it whatever he wants.

#18I'm not a legal professional but even though the author claims that the "logic and graphics" have been created by scratch, doesn't that make no difference to the fact that he's almost (the movement isn't as nice) recreated someone else's stuff verbatim and is claiming that it's now open source? Don't get me wrong, it's a very nice job and all, but with just a few drops of creative thought the author could be on his w…
Freedos is a clone of the old DOS systems -- so much so that it runs the old dos programs you may have lying around.
And nobody seems to have a problem with that.
So why should this be an issue?

if it's not copyright infringement, it's trade dress infringement. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trade_dress
either way, he's in the wrong. and the name is trademarked.
