It all depends how you see companies using your code, without
any kind of retribution or recognition. I see this happening
all the time in the SaaS enterprise space I work on.
For many companies open source means free beer.
I wonder how much Sony was given back to the open source
projects that make up the PS4 besides the license note, for
example.

Anyway it is your project, so it is up to you to decide what
license to use.

Ahh ok, I was worried when you said that the GPL was viral, I was
planning on a dual license, GPL for the actual engine, and maybe
boost or something for the actual assets, of course that depends
on who uses the code, as long as the engine itself is free and
redistributed intact then everything is fine.
