Whooter Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 http://www.frogtoss.com/verticube Is "If you have a PSP, buy Lumines" really enough to keep them from getting their asses sued off? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted May 10, 2005 Report Share Posted May 10, 2005 Game mechanic aren't patentable (though some do sneak through, ask Sega & Crazy Taxi). The art/design/levels etc is cpoyrighted & thus can't be reused. But the actual gameplay can be. So I could happily release a Lumines clone as long as I don't use any of the assets, level design or name obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoisonJam Posted May 11, 2005 Report Share Posted May 11, 2005 Wow, this is exactly like Lumines, if Lumines had shitty graphics, a lousy control scheme, and awful music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
