OMG I wish this title were editiorized. It's should really be mentioned they talking of Godot ports.

It's not EEE because W4 Games actually founded by some of top Godot contributors who continue to work on FOSS version as well. There just some things you can't have open source like console platform support code.

We as unfortunate owners of Russian passports as society do have responsibility for letting some criminal scum to get in power and stay in power, no doubt about it. But the guilt for what's happening now is also lay on western countrie
