Getting a crowd reaction to an idea

Iconoclast
Monday, July 2, 2012 - 20:06

I came up with this idea, and I thought it sounded fun.

Make a site similar to armorgames or addictinggames or what have you.  Make games that are opensource, and create videos showing people how to alter the games we make.  We'd also have the option to let game developers publish their derivative works to our site and get payments for their works ((if game == browser+game, ads that you all love; else game == download+game, small cut of sales; else game == pay+to+win chunk of coin from players in developer related worlds)).

Also might be worth while to sell our instructional videos in some format, along with games, and bundle the best derivatives after the game original reaches a set maturity level.  I'm going to support the idea of high quality downloads.

Wild amounts of room for abuse, but since the games are opensource, hopefully the bad users will be rather deterred from abusing our system.  Any thoughts, as this would probably give people reason to browse OGA, I'm asking you guys.  If anyone else is already doing this, I'm going to karate chop them.  But also, would love to help.  ...speedy jerks.

Thanks ladies and gentlemen.
