Many people in life are one and done successes and that's not exclusive to vidya
He took some freeware tech demo and saw the potential in making it a bigger, better, real game. Nothing wrong with that.
Theres nothing stopping you from ripping off an open source project of your own

>>719679961GOD I wish that was me
>>719679961Yeah unironically. If he actually cared about video games he would still be working on other projects but he's just sitting on his fat ass nowadays

>>719679961He made the most popular game in the world, then fucked off away from the public. Considering your whiny, pompous ass isn't even the worse of it, I'd say fair play. Dude won the game, like the guy who sold Myspace.
