Suika Puffworks

Suika Puffworks is an unabashed, lazy ripoff of Suika (Copyright Aladdin X, 2021). Many lazy "amateur" developers don't pay attention to their obligations under copyright law, and often steal the ideas of actual, real game developers without credit, such as the "developer" here has done. At this stage no legal action has been taken by Aladdin X against the "developer" here, but it's never off the table, as previous copyright law cases have shown. Putting aside the unethical intellectual bankruptcy of stealing someone else's game concept for profit, this is also breaking that unwritten law of stealing other people's game ideas... you should at least try to do better than the game you're ripping off. Suika Puffworks is considerably worse than Suika. The developer has a long history of shovelware cash grabs, this one, a 1:1 ripoff of Aladdin X's Suika, is the result of reskinning a GDevelop tutorial for how to make Suika-like games... tantamount to being an asset flip. Suika itself is a simple Flash game, you have a bucket and you drop things in it. If two matching things touch, they merge up to the next "tier" of item. That's all there is to this... it's shallower than 2048.…
