STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN - May 19, 2021 - Exactly one year ago we had the pleasure of announcing that King had made the decision to share the Defold source code and transfer ownership of Defold to the Defold Foundation. We are very proud of what we have achieved during our first 365 days of operations and we would like to take the opportunity to share some of the highlights. The launch
The news of the new Defold Foundation and the availability of the Defold source code quickly spread and the announcement was covered by Gamasutra, Pocket Gamer, GameIndustry.biz, Gaming on Linux, Game from Scratch and many more. There was some initial confusion regarding the license but the overall launch was indeed a success. A longer interview in the Game World Observer a few weeks later covered the launch and the reasons behind the move from King.
