Flow creator responds to Aquatica release. Hint: None too thrilled!

flowtweet.jpg

Welp, that Tweet above from Flow creator Jenova Chen just about covers it. Earlier today we covered the release of Aquatica, a near exact clone of 2007's PSN hit Flow. Well apparently the similarities don't end at gameplay or appearance, Aquatica's source code was supposedly lifted from Flow itself. Apparently Chen released the source code a while back so budding developers could learn from his work. Instead Ketara Software took the code and released a game without giving Chen any credit. Oh no they didn't!

It looks like Ketara might be getting a guilty conscious about the whole ordeal. Since the games release Aquatica's description on iTunes has gone from a paragraph of self congratulatory language about creating a fresh original title to calling it a port of the "classic Flash/PC game". For shame, Ketara, for shame.
