Thank you for pointing that out. That seems like it could be a profitable idea.
It seems like 2 of the 4 founders are also members ins the Godot board of directors and if I recall W4 has a strong voice in the Godot development team.
Maybe I'm just to pessimistic these days. (That speaks for Godot being a good project people care about).

I missed that.
I'm glad if Godot remains independent. VC funded OSS projects do not have a track record of remaining open-source.
I don't have any up to date information on the path W4 will go, but Juan and Remi have always been very clear that they have no plans to change anything in how Godot is licensed nor would they be able to.
I did not expect W4 to get that much funding, but at it's current trajectory I could imagine it becoming a kind of publisher of Godot games. This is completely without any evidence, just my gut feeling.
I could also see them provide the kind of SaaS backend tools one needs to publish a game ( Network backend, payments, content delivery )
