- karlshea 3y agoYour own link answers the very question you asked.
- Salgat 3y agoAll they say is "we acknowledge it uses Box2D and we'd be happy to discuss it with the creator later". There's no follow-up, which I'm curious about too since one of the questions raised was whether Rovio would consider supporting the project.
- Jare 3y agoHe's been credited for Box2D in many games, including a number of Angry Birds iterations. They sit nicely along all the work on Blizzard's physics technology across all their games. https://www.mobygames.com/person/221583/erin-catto/credits/ https://www.mobygames.com/person/221583/erin-catto/credits/
- karlshea 3y agoThe link has an update at the bottom from the creator (Erin Catto), there wasn't ever any drama and he was credited.
