The price has been dropped to $4.99, once they pass their development costs the engine Core3D and the game itself will be open source, the assets (art, sound etc) will be closed still so you will still need to own the game to play - sounds like one of the ideas I laid out in my "open source is better" editorial!

For any questions visit their open source FAQ.

Good news just keeps flowing in this year! Thumbs up to CoreCode for this one! Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.

Not very exclusive when they have it on their official website, i pulled him up on it and he said they emailed him a few days ago and that it still wasnt up on their website...was on their website as soon as i saw it on Phoronix...so yeah not exclusive at all.

Hmm, so is that 33,333 sales in total, or 33,333 sales from now? It'd be nice to have an idea of how far away that is (or at least how far away the countdown is).

This is pretty cool alright. I already bought it but will probably donate just to see it go FLOSS.
