I recently stumbled upon
[https://github.com/citybound/citybound](https://github.com/citybound/citybound)
which draws inspiration from SimCity and RTC among others. The project is
still in very early stages, but I thought it was very interesting.

How is the AGPL restrictive in this case?

Seconded. I can't think of any practical reason AGPL would be more restrictive
than GPL to the player of a video games.

Man what a great project, I've been only lightly following it for the last
year or so, but it gets me excited. I think I could see myself choosing this
as a first open source project to commit to.

Thinking now, I would love to see Dolphin style progress reports every now and
then from the project. I'm sure they'd catch a lot of buzz.

what are Dolphin status reports, and what about them is effective?

You can verify for yourself if you have time; the reports themselves are an
excellent resource both for their content itself and as an example to learn
