Source ports are a different thing. Source ports: developer releases source code, fans ports game (ie Doom). Game engine recreation: fans reverse engineer/recreates the game engine. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source_port From wikipedia]: "Source ports are often created by fans after the '''original developer''' hands over the maintenance support for a game '''by releasing its source code''' to the public". We could have a separate page for source ports if there is interest in making it. --[[User:Jpx|Jpx]] ([[User talk:Jpx|talk]]) 04:31, 9 January 2019 (EST) | Source ports are a different thing.
