@games I am a game developer working on game called Mushy Score. I decided that my niche would be to create open source games. I think these could be helpful for developers or teachers to teach about games and how they are made. Most open source games are small game jam games, but there are few “real games” that are open source like 0 A.D. and Doom. As a non-developer do you think open source games could be good thing?

@wawe @games
I don't think I would call that a "niche". Otherwise, it would mean players would come to your game only because they're open source, but other than that they're forgettable?

Anyway, yes, I've never encountered a game that didn't benefit from being or becoming open source.

@guntha @games That is kinda niche of my game studio. I will still try to make games that are good and fun experience for the players.
