Harris Rothaermel has put the source code of StarlightLabsCo projects on GitHub. That's quite a rare case. Most game studios don't release their source code after they shut down.

Foreword That's not the first time I write about "OOP in real-life cases" — it's literally the title of one of my past articles (I partially touched on the topic here as well). There, I focused on how to use behavioral patterns.
