Dev Tired of Waiting for ‘Angry Birds’ Creates a Clone

With all the drama involving Rovio, Microsoft and the hit game ‘Angry Birds’. Indie dev JabberWorx has released a beta closely resembling the Rovio’s popular game and its free to download on the marketplace right now. Its called Chicks’n’Vixens and he goes on to say on his blog…

The reason I started work on this game was actually in response to Rovio's slowness in getting a Windows Phone 7 port of angry birds. While Angry Birds was made with a budget of 100,000 euros this game was made for much less than $1000, if I were Rovio and had access to the art and knew about the 2D physics engines settings for the various objects (mass, physics, restitution, etc) I could get Angry Birds running on Windows Phone 7 in under a week.

No offense Rovio, but if a two bit hack like me can do this much you should be able to do better ;)

For those looking to get your Angry Bird fix now have something to help the cravings…
