It's a community project. It's opensource. It's HN material.

What is your definition of "HN material".

[drivingmenuts]

I was under the impression that HN was more startup focused, rather than straight up open-source-without-monetary-goal.

I realize there's some sort of nebulous scale, but OP seems like something waaay down at the other end from true HN material.

HN was originally named 'Startup News', but the name changed to emphasize a wider focus. And, the first sentence of the 'Guidelines' linked below is:

"On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting. That includes more than hacking and startups."

So many people here are avid gamers, hobbyist game developers, or professional game developers that any source code related to a beloved title may find an enthusiastic audience.

HN is still startup focused. But now, added to that we have an insight ranging from astrophysics, biology, rocketry, craft, art, lifestyle... all tied by one magic word "HACKER". Its a good thing and you must appreciate it.
