I had similar experience with TMW. Tried to contribute with a new system in the game, made proposals and first draft implementation. I had 10 years of professional AAA gamedev at the time... I was mocked and kinda bullied.

Never looked back to this project, but explains why this project is basically stuck at the same place as before.

In any case, I didn't let this bad experience affect my passion for foss and I continued contributing to more welcoming and successful projects.

Did you find any games to contribute to?
Not really. Hard to find any decent open source game unfortunately, but also lost interest in using my day job also as a hobby and focused on other kind of software to help when possible.
If you wanna give it a another shot and you like Zelda, check out my profile. We'll be kinder.
No OP but I enjoyed contributing to Minetest!
