Like you say, it's obviously inspired by Flood-It. I should clarify: I had never heard of Flood-It before the Mac OS 9 port ("Assimilate") was posted to HN last month, and I was curious if that posting was what inspired this remake. > the original (which was apparently made 11 years ago) I'm not sure what the true original is--I found a still-playable version[1] from 2006, from back in the brief heyday of Web Gadgets and personalized web portals[2].
