Comment on End of the Machinery Game Engine

Comments

Hopefully this will be a lesson that proprietary licenses subject you to rug pulls with no recourse, which FOSS licenses protect you from. Had Machinery been FOSS, then you could at least still keep using the last version of the engine that they did release, and even fork it to continue development yourself.

the funniest thing is that they were going on and on about how they would love to make the engine open-source so it could still be developed in the case they stopped working on it
