Indeed, the bulk of iPhone games seem to be unashamed clones. Should it be any wonder your clone isn't doing well?
If you're going to steal a mechanic (most mechanics aren't entirely original anyhow), take the time to spin it into a new context.

- reitzensteinm 17y agoThere's a pretty big difference between being inspired by games in the past (see below), and systematically copying one specific game piece by piece - name included. I'd like to note that I actually hadn't played any game like Stunt Pilot when I wrote it, although I've since played Pilot Wings. Stunt Pilot was designed to be a playable version of air racing.
- greendestiny 17y agoYes there is, I like your game and I think copying that blatant is reprehensible.
- wlievens 17y agoLove your games man. Keep up the good work.
- reitzensteinm 17y agoThanks! More coming soon...
