Shuttered online game Glitch gets new life in the Creative Commons

The death of massively multiplayer games, reliant on expensive infrastructure to stay alive, is more final than most. But doomed worlds can enjoy an afterlife in the Creative Commons: the developers of Glitch, shuttered only a few weeks ago, have made the game’s artwork and other components freely available. A hardcover book collecting the best of it, and a soundtrack album, are also on their way.
