Looks like an (unfriendly) fork of https://github.com/erkie/erkie.github.com

they made minor changes, but no attribution to the original author (that i saw)

Maybe they added this after you posted, but under the game it says "Jon Huang/The New York Times, based on the original game by Rootof Creations HB"

EDIT Okay... it's a DIV blaster or something. either way, love it. Score 2180

I am really intrigued by the little minigame. I read the whole article before playing, but the way it interacts iwth the webpage is amazing!
