Hi there, I'm posting here because it's more underground compared to Reddit (since I think that the dev wouldn't like it to get mainstream attention).

There is an open-source WC3 engine called Warsmash (made using LibGDX): https://github.com/Retera/WarsmashModEngine

There was even a movie made about that. It's kinda bad but entertaining, Tim Robbins as the Gates/Jobs amalgamation is the saving grace, it's worth watching for his performance alone.

The movie is called Antitrust if anyone is wondering. It's a serviceable thriller and Tim Robbins is realy the best thing about it.

It's one of thise movies thats definitely worth a watch if you catch it somewhere.
