Comment on Open Source Game Clonesparent

Comments

Is a game "not open source" if all the business-logic code and game assets are open-source, but it relies on a closed-source engine (that it doesn't ship with)?

Depending on a closed-source engine at all by definition makes the game not open source, when you consider "the game" from both a developer and user point of view.
