Quoth the TGE demo license:
Here comes the Noob question: Does that mean I cannot create an open source (As in open TourqueScript.) game and distribute it under the GNU GPL without buying TGE?
Thanks for the answers...

I couldn't see why not, it sounds like good PR for them if a free Torque script game is out there.
However, you have misunderstood one thing. You don't need a license for all ten members, unless they are all C++ programmers.
