Honestly, a bit surprised by this. It wasn't even on Steam. Hopefully switching to an open source SDK will get this back up.

That's why it was taken down. Valve needs their cut.

What would they be getting a cut of when its free, is what they're saying.

And I'm saying the reason Valve took it down, was because it's a free download not on their service. So Valve isn't getting a cut.
