I'd be less annoyed if his version was indeed better but he just replaced the graphics and bumped the physics values. So I can't accept that his version was "more fun".
But I agree that there are things I didn't consider. And I learned a lot because of this event.
It seemed to me that aside from poor timing, people upvoted it because it used flappy bird assets. I guess quality isn't the best word but I picked the phrase from a presentation I recently read and it sounded appropriate :)
I was ecstatic to see the other forks but my smile does a 360 everytime I see him getting the credit for it. But I'm happy to report that it didn't discourage me to open source the things I create: https://github.com/marksteve/val :)
Yeah. My timing was off. But I think I now have a better idea on when and how to post things here :P
I can't claim that :P There are some good clones that were genuinely created from scratch like mine.
Kind of disappointing. This was the first game I've ever written so it kinda means something to me. From what I've read, it seems that you had no intention of mentioning that you copied it from me (Nope you didn't fork it :p). But I guess I'm flattered to know that it was good enough for you to "re-share".
Climbing helped a lot with this. In the process of getting more fit, I realized more what I want in life.
