[ Closed ] [proposal] Steam for all platforms => Teeworlds on Steam? (Page 2 of 3)

Deafinitely yes. More players - more fun. 100$ is not much in such a big community... I will check the ToS of Greenlight, giving TF2 as example is quite inappropiate, becouse TF2 is game made by valve so they can license it however they wish, teeworlds is not. Also, modding source engine games is just writing lua files - not changing the actual code.

Anyway, I'd love to see no more fakes, easier bans, and so on... You have my YES (And my axe)!

But that won't stop people from playing it. Players don't have to pay that. Only the person submitting it.

Actually, it's not. Just as we are not entitled to updates, developers are not entitled to people being content with no updates. I am sorry that some developers don't have time to write a single line of code within months for this game. There's been only 15 commits for Teeworlds in this year. That's horseshit and you're delusional and making excuses if you think that's okay in any situation, especially since the game is open-source and can be edited by anyone. Please stop being entitled, developers who think like Dune does, because while we may be entitled, so are you all.

EDIT: This is not trolling. I've never trolled, but after reading this post, I can see why you may think this post is, but it is not.

These are my personal opinions and thoughts about the subject. Right off the bat I'm against Teeworlds on Steam.

The $100 is a non-issue but looking on it from the Valve perspective, there is no business reason for them why they would put Teeworlds on steam without charging money for it. Teeworlds shouldn't be anywhere near money, DRM and closed-source.

I have don't know how the licensing and NDAs around SteamWorks looks like nowadays so I'm gonna guess here from how these stuff usually works. You are most probably not allowed to redistribute any source that contains SteamWorks stuff. This would turn Teeworlds into a partially open-source game at best, where the real open-source version is not on par with the closed one. This is bad.

Taking Teeworlds to Steam is turning Teeworlds into a commercial product. Teeworlds is, and should remain an open and free software.

Also, does anyone know of a F/OSS game that has been put onto steam?

Matricks, I am right with you on that part almost all of the way.

Well, there are almost no difference between 0.6.1 and 0.6.2
Do you, developers, need 2 years to change 3 features?

Can you stop being a jerk?
The only thing developers have been working on is 0.7, they would do a little 0.6.2 release because of some critical issues. That's it.

Now go do something for Teeworlds instead of shouting to other people to do it.

The fee is not an issue.

I was browsing the chrome app store and thought to myself "Teeworlds should be here." I have no idea the feasibility of this with googles native client, just thought I would share the idea. I would enjoy teeworlds on steam and/or chrome.

The latter one.

if this happens I am gonna learn programming and help those developers I don’t care what it takes I am gonna do it.

an achievements system would be great to have on steam

oh and maybe some guys would help in development specially that the game will get more players, of course.

why would the licensing change? there is no need to change the licensing, steam do not care, they will have more linux users attention and will loose nothing if the game is open source.

What about Desura instead of Steam?
Of course it's not as huge as Steam but still a quite big community.

Also no need to change the licensing there (take a look under Action games group):
