DevCorner: Open (Game Art) Bundle

Image
An interesting mixture to "pay what you want" and "ransom funding" has recently surfaced with the Open Bundle : You can buy all the offered game art and use them under the CC-by license and if the total threshold is reached (10k, 1 day remaining, 9.3k already pledged) all the game art (2d sprites and music) will be officially released under the CC0. A split of the funds is btw. shared with the EFF and Creative Commons . For those wondering: no, it is not done by our friends of OpenGameArt.org , but they think it is a good project anyways . Interestingly the creator is also thinking of expanding the idea: Do you want to host your own "public domain ransom"? I'd love to help you!
