This game looks promising, however proprietary dependencies scares me away :-/

That is right, or at least I do plan to drop the proprietary stuff. Null doesn’t agree with me a lot there. So yeah, help is definitely appreciated. Check out my repo on github. Feel free to substitute any proprietary lib we use with a free one and send me a pull request. Easiest to remove is fmodex for OpenAL.

…however, acording to freegamer, they plan to drop this proprietary sh*t. This would be good.

Too bad pseudoform is not really free software, as it uses proprietary Newton physics engine. This drives many potential contributors away, as well as makes the game not useable on many platforms beside those Newton is available for (and latest versions of Newton SDK are only available for Windows). Open project using proprietary depends is the most unfortunate thing imaginable :(
