    Well a similar example is Andriod. They Release the source code for each andriod version as they are working on a newer and better one. There is also a game I used to play that was similar to minecraft but 2d and they would make a new game and then they would release the old source code

    Android is not a game, has an entirely different business model and is owned by one of the wealthiest companies in the world.

    You're thinking of clonk. It was not open sourced, the older games were made free and then an independent team of players decided to make an open source clone project called openclonk.

    Okay, so one project that I haven't heard of has done it. I still don't think your argument is strong and we're not likely to open source the game for a while - if we move onto another project after KAG we'll think about it because we're nice like that, but not while we're developing it.
