Strictly speaking, this is not exactly true, Unreal Engine has 24.8K stars as I wrote this. It is private though!
- echelon 4y ago> It is private though! It's source available, which is better than closed source. For a game engine, it has to be, but I wish more "closed" projects were available like this. I would love to tweak and rebuild iOS or Windows or Discord. Or just peer inside. To get access to Unreal Engine's source code, go through their website signup process. They want to be able to track growth/engagement, send you marketing emails, and have you sign their TOS/EULA/license agreement. But from there it's all available and you can build the entire engine and editor from source.
