Voxeliens, a game I covered back in 2012 has gone open source

Voxeliens [Official Site], a game I haven't seen much on since I wrote about it back in 2012 has officially gone open source a few days ago. It's a retro-style arcade shooter and it's essentially a 3D voxel-based version of Space Invaders.

It'll probably need porting to Qt5 and SDL 2 (from Qt4 and SDL 1.2) looks fun though and it isn't a big download

Just me asking dumb questions. But what would happen if it would not be ported? :)
