Is it just me who finds it sad that the majority of open source game development energy goes into cloning existing proprietary games.
Yes, I understand that designing a game from scratch is a lot more work, but I would much rather lower number of original games than a larger number of worse versions of existing games. I also suspect this would have a larger positive impact on open source software as a whole.
Where's the creativity?!
- chii 13y ago> Where's the creativity?! i suspect its poured into the indie scene. If i had an idea that's really original/innovative, i would try to expoit it commercially, and not make an open source project. These open source projects are there for other reason other than commercial, and therefore, unlikely to have the type of innovative ideas you seek.
