In the French law it would not be an infringement if it is 2 companies doing 2 things completely different, or 2 products completely different.

But here Sim City and City Sim are 2 similar games: a city building game.

The owner of the trademark of Sim City will not attack, because the game here is not sold, and will probably not become famous.

See examples here:

https://corsearch.com/content-library/blog/nine-nasty-trademark-infringe...

See the examples: Freddocino similar than Frappucino, and 3N similar than 3M.

It's very obvious that City Sim, is similar than Sim City

On the page below, they explain that Apple Inc, and Apple Corps, are not infringe because one is in the computer area, and the other one in the music area (so it seems that it's similar than in France)

I saw this article about procedural generation of 2d maps using perlin noise:

https://gamedevacademy.org/procedural-2d-maps-unity-tutorial/

then I found this javascript implementation of the perlin noise:

https://github.com/josephg/noisejs

So I made this random map generator with this graphics kit:

reload the page to have a different map.

Hi, I started to make a mini-platformer game with this graphics kit:

http://decapode314.free.fr/games/platform_k2/platform.html

There are 3 charaters with 3 colors, each has to catch the items of the same color.

Switch character with key 'x'.

(there are currently only 4 levels, you can help me create more if you want, just use tiled)

All past versions are still available if you add a number at the end of the last directory in the address, like for example:

http://decapode314.free.fr/games/shmup_jm5/

The number 5 is I think the version I submited to the game jam at Itch.

So since my first post in the comments here, here are the dev-logs:

- I added minimalist background elements (industrial inspired from this submition: https://opengameart.org/content/minimal-industrial-tiles)

- I added 3 bullet patterns for the enemies.

- I created a git repo for these skins: https://github.com/fccm/ocaml-re-shmups

Had the idea to also use kanjis for background elements but I'm not really happy with it yet.
