Here we have a thread dedicated to "games similarities" (read: ripoffs). Might be that one of the games is mentioned there. Unfortunately the thread is old enough that screenshots in it have started to disappear.

Define "ripped" - if you mean took forcibly from other games via tools or screengrabs i would say no; if you instead mean that try to recreate poorly the style of an existing more famous game i could say it definitely seems so, but the latter i call it "aping"

Those gems look awfully like recolored version of Gods gems.

But it's 16 bit graphics. Things are bound to look similar. For example: there are only so many color combinations that will make a block look icy.
