Garry's mod successor s&box goes open source and even opens up the finances, Garry says: 'Valve gave me my chance, I'm already rich, I don't want to f*ck anyone over'

Garry's Mod.

Facepunch Studios has announced that s&box, the long-in-development successor to Garry's mod, is now open source. "We're awesome," says studio founder Garry Newman, which we'll nod through because they kind of are. "S&box code is on GitHub now (Valve's code is still closed source, we're not open sourcing that)."

s&box has been made open source under the MIT license, and this means developers can basically do whatever they like with it: "You can view, modify, copy any of our code to help improve s&box with pull requests, or maintain your own fork for your standalone games, or even just take the code for your own engine."
