While it may not have explicitly taken inspiration from other games I'd imagine it's been subconsciously inspired by other games. After so many years of video games being made, any time now when a developer claims that their game is completely original is a red flag for me.
There's nothing wrong with a game being inspired by (or even a "copy" of) another one. Thinking every game needs to be original is like a car company thinking they need to reinvent the wheel.
