Plagiarism hedgehogs
Hello dear developers.
I want to inform you that the game simply copy.
In the popular social network facebook friend of mine sent me an application Vormiks "(he knows I'm a fan of worms).
At first I thought it was just a flash clone of worms. Included, yes, there were actually worms, but was attended by such elements as:
Sniper Rifle (twitchy with laser sight)
Watermelon Bomb (fragmentation)
Drilling rocket
And something else that just can not remember.
Other weapons, as you might guess, stardny Worms-stock.
Also in this game, I noticed 3-4 stolen cards, such as bamboo, the underwater theme, treasure chest ...
But this is pure plagiarism!

Hedgewars being under the GPLv2, they can reuse and rework. The only requirement is that they release any chances to their source code.
If they only changed graphics, then that requirement is basically satisfied.
Changed weapons would suggest code changes though, and they really should release that.
Granted, I have no idea if the GPLv2 has any weight in russian courts.
