- SpacetimeDB looks interesting as a concept (the tech behind this server) but I could never sus out how could it would be in actual practice. I’ve always been interested in some post-mortems or reflections on the tech from other companies besides the founders
- Old man here shaking his fist. While I acknowledge and appreciate the technical effort and let’s face it, an exemplary example in preserving games long after they are maintained by the original creators.
But this is not an “rpg”, it’s a gathering, crafting, and hanging out simulator. That’s fine by its own definition, but I don’t see any mechanisms which allow for actual roleplay? Please prove me wrong

Doesn't this contradict the Apache license? Isn't this "source-available"?
- This is really cool. If you've never seen it before BitCraft is quite a lot like Runescape. Great art style and very crunchy gathering/crafting gameplay.
The developer open sourcing all of this is awesome.
Here's an blog post from them last year covering their open source plans: https://bitcraftonline.com/news/open-sourcing-bitcraft-onlin...
- Apparently they are planning to also open source the game client in the future [1], which seems cool.

- I guess that’s one way to deal with a mixed review score on steam.

- This is really cool, I don't really recall another MMO server written in Rust like this.
