Seems like at a minimum there <i>might</i> be some asset reuse (or recreation) that could violate copyright. And maybe a trade dress issue, creating confusion in the marketplace?<p>Whether either of these (if actual avenues for redress) are worth the financial effort it'd take to pursue them? Given how much money indie games make, I doubt it.<p>But, yeah, what a piece of shit move by Terry Brash. At a minimum this should be the sort of thing that's a huge black mark on your reputation. (And it's not just the ethical lapse of copying the game — it's the dumb "whatcha gonna do" shrug when called out.) I wouldn't go anywhere near someone so completely willing to be so publicly unethical. I wouldn't hire them. I wouldn't talk to them about any sort of project I'm working on. I wouldn't provide any sort of technical or business assistance.<p>Which seems fine with Terry Brash. '"The decision's been made," said Brash. "I accept my fate."'
