I am developing a number of engines for game development including 2D and 3D graphics engines, using Visual Basic. I like people to contribute to the development of these engines. These engines will be released as freeware.

So if you like to join, let me know. I telling people now an agreement will
be required between myself and anyone who joins to keep the source code private. No one will get paid, I will not release the engine commercially I mean NEVER unlike some "open source projects". The source code should remain private between those who work on the engine to keep it pure unlike open source where you could end up with 50 versions all different of the same item.

Not going to debate my opinions expressed. I do know open source abuse is not wide spread.

My aim is to give to the visual basic community, especially beginners, the
means to write their own games. That would include myself and those who work on it or write examples to the engine. I am not worried if commercial games get developed or not with the game. I will NOT require any fees for the engines use.
