Submission + - Pirated app sold on Mac App Store (wolfire.com)

iDuck writes: When Wolfire Games released their animal martial arts games, 'Lugaru HD', on the Mac App store, shortly after they could be forgiven for thinking they were seeing double. A counterfeit version of the software is currently available on the app store at a much lower price point under the name 'Lugaru'. The best bit: as yet Apple have not responded to Wolfire's emails to rectify the situation. Whilst the source to the game was GPLed, "the license made it very clear that the authors retained all rights to the assets, characters, and everything else aside from the code itself".
