    I just found other people making the powder toy. Is that illegal.

    Here is the link http://www.fun-motion.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4427


    Weird huh. I don't know if there is a actual link for the game, but the site caught my eye.
    Even if it is different, it has the same name.

    So what? We go challenge them to see who's better or we work together and share element coding?

    It is not illegal as The Powder Toy is licensed under GPL, which states that anyone may modify the program as long as they post source code. It looks like they have a bunch of advantages over regular PT, including window resizing, more precise velocity and pressure mapping, fluid movement, and significant performance upgrades. There is a link to the source code, which you have to compile.

    Have we talked to them? It'd be funny for two people doing the same thing unbeknown to each other.

    The guy says the severs are gone and the developer stopped work. Maybe he has an old version? He also says remake, and make numerous referances the original powder toy. Anyone could work out that he did not make powder toy.
