Garry's Mod follow-up S&box will launch on Steam with "sustainable" payout for people using it to make games, as devs say with a wink: "We don't have to fire 1000 people to keep it working"

Two characters in S&box.

The long-awaited Garry's Mod follow-up, S&box, is finally launching on Steam next week, and developer Facepunch Studios is already making some big promises about the game's future. The devs previously announced that they'd partnered with Valve to allow games made in S&box to be sold royalty-free on Steam, and they're taking some well-earned potshots at other platforms driven by user-generated content ahead of launch.

"We're not guided by commercial milestones, we're not going to do an IPO," Facepunch says in a press release. "We do this because we love it, we want to give the community the same opportunities we've had. We want to do that as fair and generously as possible.. Without any corporate mischief."
