Four Games From the Humble Indie Bundle are Going Open Source

Under categories: Ubuntu

The Humble Indie Bundle, which included 5 games, and recently added a sixth, announced four of the games open sourced by their respective developers,

Lugaru is the first to be open sourced (GPL) - claiming that within hours users have already submitted patches - while Aquaria, Gish and Penumbra: Overture are still currently being open sourced.

That should please the anonymous poster that didn't like how I was promoting proprietary games for Ubuntu =)

I can't wait for Steam to hit Ubuntu. I gave up gaming to escape Windows, I'm totally going to get Portal, Counter Strike : Source, Half Life, and Team Fortress, all on the same day that comes out.

It's so cool that Steam will enable gamers to move to Ubuntu and keep all their games and data. It's not possible for a platform migration to be easier for a gamer than that.

Steam should be out in the next couple months too! Let's hope 10.04 LTS is supported.

By the way, I bought the humble indie game bundle, and it's great :D

I wonder how Glish will be released. It seems it's a big flash blob.
