ZDoom/Android legal question

Started by
3 comments, last by fleabay 4ย years ago

I'm making a game w/ the source port ZDoom, It & ID Tech 1 are open source, & I'm using open source textures, UI, & sounds. Would it be legal for me to make my own flavor of ZDoom on the Android store running my game? I'm going to credit all the original devs.

Moving question to the appropriate forum (Business and Law).

In principle yes, but you have to abide by all of the relevant licenses. For example, ZDoom contains GPL code, so you must make your own source code available under the GPL or a compatible license.

I don't think the monster code (AI?) can be used by just reskinning the original mobs. Not 100% sure but mostly sure.
