A lot of old games have become unplayable on modern hardware and operating systems. I wrote an article about how making games open source will keep them playable far into the future.

I also discuss how making games open source could be beneficial to developers and companies.

Feedback and constructive criticism are most welcome, and in keeping with the open source spirit, I will give you credit if I make any edits based on your feedback.

    Absolutely and with great game engines like Godot it has never been easier to make open-source games from scratch as well.

      I legit do not understand new devs picking unreal or unity instead of godot.

      Is it because they think they can crank out a AAA level of graphics for their game?
