Insurgent Games Makes All Games Free, Releases Everything as Open Source
This allows aspiring game developers to learn and build their own games from the code.All the repositories are GPL'd, so I'm assuming they meant build in a purely educational setting.It's a nice move, but why not go all the way and let developers leverage your code in their proprietary code? Insurgent Games only open sourced once they gave up, so they clearly know that open sourcing all your code is not a good idea when you're selling games.
