But the jurisprudence made it clear that source code is considered as ok as soon as it does not contain copyrighted materials (original 3d models, music, etc). That why I’d prefer to link directly to the source code.
And if they have a direct link to the playable version of that game on said repository, that’s not our problem anymore 😅.
