Thank you for the feedback. It was never our intention to step on any toes or misrepresent Defold. Please see this statement: https://twitter.com/defold/status/1262744466311360517

I'm glad that for the twitter statement. The website is still misleading, though; I hope that will be corrected soon. I wish you the best!

It has been corrected now. https://defold.com/2020/05/20/Some-thoughts-on-the-open-sour...

I might be missing something, but:

> The license grants you the following permissions:

> - You are free to commercialise any software created using Defold

- https://defold.com/license/

Edit (after reading other comments): Ohh, derivative works of the Editor itself cannot be commercialized. Hmm.
