The Matter of Being is a large, commercial project produced under Weather Factory’s unusually permissive Community License.
If The Matter of Being reaches its fundraising goals, Common Logic’s team will return the code, art, and music to the community for public (and commercial) use.
The Matter of Being won 5th place, as determined by popular vote, during the Krafton-backed “Rising Tide” competition by Blue Ocean Games.
Blue Ocean Games declined to fund the project due to the communal nature of the IP.
Common Logic aspires to launch future IPs with a similarly permissive community license to help independent developers get off the ground.
Common Logic is trying a revenue share model that ties hours worked to percentage vestment to fund its team members.
The Matter of Being does not yet have a publisher, but Common Logic is open to working with one.
Concept Trailer
This early trailer was produced for Rising Tide. It will be updated with new content as art and gameplay evolves.
