Publish open source game on GitHub
Hey there,
am I allowed to publish my game open source on GitHub? If yes, which license do I have to choose and are there any other things I have to keep in mind?
Thanks in advance, Psycho
If it's your code, then it's your code. You can do whatever you want with it.
You can run into issues if your game includes something like a paid asset from the assetstore, or some other sensitive library that you do not have distribution rights to.
When people post their game's code, they sometimes just post the core logic and proprietary work as a resource to others. This way their creative works are disbursed and available to the community without damaging the property rights / monetization of another developer.
Also, large assets aren't explicitly forbidden (there's a 700$$anonymous$$B file size limit though, iirc), but they do try to keep repository size down and might send you a little email or notification if it seems like you're using their service as an external host.
