Every. Single. Tetris clone which has -tris in the title ends up receiving a very scary cease and desist.
Rename your project if you don’t want to receive such a letter or worse, if you don’t want GitHub to be hit with a DMCA against your project.
I know. It sucks.
- bena 2y agoMine never was. Literally called it “clonetris”.
- philistine 2y agoWell it seems you last released yours in 2002. That's literally 20 years ago. Things have changed a bunch since then.
- bena 2y ago> Every. Single. Tetris clone which has -tris in the title ends up receiving a very scary cease and desist. But I did the first and the second didn't happen. So not "Every. Single. Tetris clone which has -tris in the title". You emphasized that it will happen and has happened to everyone who did the thing. I'm literally an exception to your statement. Because they don't care if you're not looking to make money off of it.
