I have done some open source projects, but I am not a great programmer. A few weeks ago MapleStory Worlds went global, which I figured I could do some minimal help to any live open source project (slightly accelerate the clock in which it’s completed) while also learning a bit of Lua, to discover there’s not a single open source project that aims to recreate old (or even new) MapleStory

I feel like the “nostalgia” would steer someone to make an open source project, but haven’t seen a single one.

Maybe the issue is that MapleStory is just too large of a project for anybody, or even team, to try making as open source.
