thewayneVery interesting story. This game, Glitch, was a browser-based (Flash) 2-D scroller that had a good fan base but never made a lot of money. According to comments, it required a lot of hands-on work from the programmers, that's probably one of the reasons for its downfall. It shut down last December. Well, the owners of all of the code have released ALL OF IT, and the art work, into the public domain. Anyone can download it, anyone can create a server.
It's going to be interesting to see what this spawns once people download and finish studying the code and start mounting servers.
