Medusa Engine Released
- Posted on June 20th, 2009 - 14:52 by Faustus
I'm happy to announce that the full source code for the Medusa Engine is now available for download. I've been wanting to do this for years. My hope is the community can step in and help improve the code and help make new features that we can all share.



Medusa is being licensed under one of three different licenses depending on how you want to use my source code. In a nutshell, If you want to make money off my source code, then you will have to pay me. If you just want to make games and release them for free or just for fun, the source code and engine is free of charge.
