Let it be known that the game previously known as "Froggy Math" is now known as "Wormy Math"

"Why" you ask?

It only figures that with all of the Flash, Silverlight, and Mobile games being created every day that there would be some overlap in ideas and titles. But this one is just bizarre:

Yesterday, I uploaded a little Silverlight educational game which I had called "Froggy Math." When I came up with the title just a few weeks ago, I had searched fairly extensively to make sure the name wasn't taken.

Today, I was searching around again for Froggy Math, and hit on this iPhone app released just a couple of weeks ago:

Not only are the names the same, but the ideas are similar (at least, as far as I can tell - I don't have an iPhone so I haven't actually played this game).

I have to say though, I think my game looks a little cooler :) and I'm guessing has better physics!

Thanks for the name change! I'm sure the developer of the iPhone game appreciates it! ^_^
