Humble update: open source extension (5/11/10)

The Humble Indie Bundle experiment has been a massive success beyond our craziest expectations. So far, in just over 7 days, 121,716 generous contributors have put down an incredible $1,110,674. Of this, contributors chose to allocate 30.95% to charity: $343,771 for the Electronic Frontier Foundation and Child's Play Charity. I have made a page for the full breakdown including credit card fees in a JSON format here (json).

Now it's our turn to give back. As of 5/11/10, Aquaria, Gish, Lugaru HD, and Penumbra Overture pledge to go open source. We are preparing the sources right now and will be releasing them ASAP. We spent last night preparing Lugaru and it is available now. The code is still a little rough (no Visual Studio project yet, for instance) but hopefully with the help of the community we can rapidly make it more accessible to everyone.

Note, the games will be "free as in 'free speech', not as in 'free beer'": see each license for the full, finalized details as they come out very hopefully this week -- stay tuned. It is the underlying code that will be made available to everyone.

Feel free to continue donating to charity, to the developers, or any combination thereof below. We will still be distributing humble bundles to anyone who contributes.

We have included enough of the game data to run the demo version. Please note that the game data is not under the GPL, and forbids commercial redistribution.

quote:

Free software is a matter of the users' freedom to run, copy, distribute, study, change and improve the software. More precisely, it means that the program's users have the four essential freedoms:

* The freedom to run the program, for any purpose (freedom 0).
* The freedom to study how the program works, and change it to make it do what you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
* The freedom to redistribute copies so you can help your neighbor (freedom 2).
* The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others (freedom 3). By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.

Niemand mag het commercieel uitbuiten. Maar je mag het wel aanpassen, clonen en verspreiden.

Hier is de linux installer http://icculus.org/aquaria/aquaria-beta3-installer.run trouwens.

Volgensmij wordt de game data niet geopend je krijgt dus een constructie net als bij quake etc. de engine is open source voor de game data moet je de originele files gebruiken.

When I saw this flurry of positive contributions, it immediately reminded me of its mirror image -- the rush to be the first cracker to crack each new DRM scheme. Whenever a game comes out with some new and more 'uncrackable' form of copy protection, crackers jump in and work night and day to prove that they can crack it.

It makes me a little sad to see all this effort expended on games with DRM. Could it work the same way in reverse? When Aquaria, Gish, and Penumbra Overture open up, I hope the community will help build them up with the same vigor that crackers tear DRM down.

Hoe werkt dat? Heb zojuist 30 dollar overgemaakt, maar krijg met geen enkele mogelijkheid die games binnen; op de site zelf geeft hij nog steeds de mogelijkheid om geld over te maken aan, maar nergens de mogelijkheid om games te downloaden...
