Galaxy Gameworks winding down, SDL continues open source...

Building Galaxy Gameworks has been an amazing experience over the last few months, and I want to thank everyone who has been involved.

However, in the quest for work life balance and time with my family, I've decided to wind the business down and move on to my next venture.

SDL development is still active and will continue community supported and open source.

Existing customers will continue to be supported and I'm working out licensing details for people who want to use SDL in the future on iOS and other embedded platforms.

Cheers!
-Sam Lantinga, Founder and CEO, Galaxy Gameworks
