Is it true that EE is being sold to a game company?

I think it's laughable to suggest that coding the game takes the same amount of time as making the graphics. Should more development have been done by now? Absolutely. But even if the developers weren't busy in their real lives I still think it'd take them more than a year to fully develop EEU given the number of distractions there have been along the way.

The only way those distractions could have been avoided would have been if they had stopped caring about EE back in 2018 or 2019. That would have meant no more updates to EE and no fixing all the hacks and data breach. I really don't think ignoring the hacks/data breach was ever an option but there is still a criticism to be made that EE should not have been receiving any content updates and instead focus should have been on EEU. I think if they had that approach then there'd still only be about 3 or 4 months of extra development in EEU at this stage; though, to be fair, if that 3 or 4 months had meant the server rework would have been done by now then I think that would make a huge difference in terms of the current content in the game. The only other factors that would have increased development speed would have been A) if there were more developers or B) if the developers were less busy and able to devote more time to working on the game.

We need a lawyer. Oh and we need original graphics for the Grass and Metal blocks so we don't give the lawyer a heart attack.

Don't get me started on the Facebook smilies

EE is gonna die in a month, so whatever. My points are more relevant when we're talking about EEU. The game is still in its infant stages, and there haven't been any monetization systems put in place yet, besides Xeno converting gems and stuff over from EE

Will versions of Everybody Edits be released as a GitHub Repository for the sake of preservation and allow for others to make their own private servers if they wish?

Knowing that the game is gonna die soon is kind of heartbreaking, especially if you've been apart of the community for years now.
