Judging by screenshots, such a shame for so much hard work to go to waste. Wish they would open source it. I would suggest AGPL to protect their IP from being stolen(IANAL so don’t quote me), but I would take anything if it meant the work of talented people didn’t go to waste.
Hopefully a modding scene can thrive and make something decent from these ashes.
There was no hard work*, it's made almost entirely of purchased assets and gameplay systems.
*There was hard work on behalf of the people who made the assets for sale.
Oh, I did not know that. I haven’t been following closely but I had heard it was a horrid bait-n-switch for the gameplay. I guess I could not put it past the studio to stoop that low.
I still maintain it would be cool if they open sourced the game. Asset licenses permitting.
