I represent the McArthur Law Firm, intellectual property counsel to Big
Duck Games, LLC. I believe in good faith that the material at the below
listed URL infringes Big Duck Games, LLC's copyrights and that the use of
the below listed third party content is not authorized by the rights
holder, its agent, or the law.
Big Duck Games, LLC's copyrighted work can be found here:

The following content appearing on the GitHub website infringes Big Duck's
copyrights. Pursuant to the DMCA, you must expeditiously disable and/or
remove access to the infringing material at the following URL:
https://github.com/sirvar/flow-free
Big Duck's United States copyright registration numbers are: PA 1-917-339,
PA 1-907-000, PA 1-907-001, PA 1-908-714, and PA-1-915-664.
The nature of our copyright complaint is that the infringing game is a
substantially similar clone. They (1) replicate the exact game play,
organization, and experience of the original Flow Free game, and (2)
incorporate similar imagery from the game, which federal courts have said
is enough to be considered copyright infringement. See, e.g., Spry Fox LLC
v. Lolapps, Inc., 2:12-cv-00147-RAJ (W.D. Wash. Sept. 18, 2012); see also
Tetris Holding, LLC v. XIO Interactive, LLC, 2012 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 74463
(D. N.J., May 30, 2012). The infringing clone has the same game play as Big
Duck Games, LLC's Flow games and is substantially similar with the same
total concept and feel. U.S. federal courts have held for video games that
a clone is infringing and substantially similar for purposes of copyright
infringement if the “total concept and feel” of the two games is the same.
Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.
