I haven't played Tiny Combat Arena but their video promos look very much like ysflight, which I have played a lot. I mean Tiny Combat Arena really looks very very much like ysflight. I wonder if it's a fork of the ysflight code. I don't think ysflight ever published their source code and Tiny Combat Arena is a sold-for-profit app, so we'll probly never know.

But I have played LAC and LAC looks better to me. Especially the terrain graphics and clouds.

The code has no relation to YSFlight, and predates YSFlight source being released either way, but I admire YSFlight's timeless art style.
I didn't know the source code for ysflight was ever published. That's great news!

Is the source code for Tiny Combat Arena released too?

It's not, but I upload a lot of the more general purpose code I use to my github: https://github.com/brihernandez
