• You can choose up to 10 software projects.
  • Each project receives 10 years of development time as if all the programmers worked continuously for that duration, following their current working methods.
  • After choosing these 10 (or less) projects, everything else remains unchanged in the world, as if time has been frozen for 10 years.

Which projects do you choose?

    I’ve got a few that are similar to other posts in here, but what I’d really like is an open source game similar to The Sims. Specifically, one that tries to achieve the goals of Sims 3.

    Sims 3 could have been an amazing game, but EA half-assed it making mediocre content and not fixing bugs.

    If the game was open source, all those bugs would be fixed, the game would be optimized, and it would still be relevant today. But while open source is great for maintaining and improving big software projects, it’s not good for creating them in the first place. So that’s where I’d put ten years of development - creating an open source life simulation game.
