| Curved Infinity Games, through the MirthKit game platform, is proud to 
| present the first ever commercial game to be released with full source code 
| included. Finity Flight: Fight Back, the expansion to Curved Infinity Games’ 
| August release, Finity Flight, is the first direct hybridization of 
| commercialism and open source philosophy. When a customer buys Fight Back for 
| $11.99, they automatically download all of the game’s source and assets.

| an interesting example of how many unusual things can benefit from community 
| contributions. I'm not so sure about his next project, though: The Brain 
| Machine. Sounds like a good way to induce a seizure.
