Galaxy Gameworks winding down, SDL continues open source

Building Galaxy Gameworks has been an amazing experience over the last few
months, and I want to thank everyone who has been involved.

However, in the quest for work life balance and time with my family, I’ve
decided to wind the business down and move on to my next venture.

SDL development is still active and will continue community supported and
open source.

Existing customers will continue to be supported and I’m working out
licensing details for people who want to use SDL in the future on iOS and
other embedded platforms.

Cheers!–

Well, that was unexpected but sounds like the right choice. We’ll
stick with you, Sam.

With the disappearing of the commercial licenses, what are the odds of
SDL eventually becoming BSD/MIT-ish?

I’ve been using SDL for years in my personal projects… and hope to
continue doing so. Good luck with your new venture, Sam!–
