You guys can always port it from Android since its free on that platform then leave all the trademarks and licenses in tacked. Just add an extra screen saying "ported by ___"

Except it's not open source...

It's perfectly possible to do a game with similar gameplay to Angry Birds, there's plenty of those out there already. Personally, I'd suggest stepping away from a "clone" of it and instead make a similar game but improve on it.

i.e. just make the one in a thousand "cannon games." Other popular examples are Kitten Cannon and Crush the Castle.

Those were examples of two kinds of cannon games, distance and destruction, the latter being the kind Angry Birds is.
