Ok clarification time. The game was published by WayForward but they just licensed the Carbon Engine from Limited Run Games. LRG, however, integrated mGBA, presumably without disclosing it to WF, so WF is transitively violating the license. I don't blame them per se, but LRG is 100% absolutely in the wrong here. The game in question is Sigma Star Saga DX, and I have confirmed it uses mGBA by now.

@endrift do you want me to gift you the game on Steam so you can check?

@endrift God, again? I'm curious if the credits say anything. I remember LRG's handling of Tomba was pretty awkward - their GPL acknowledgment just listed the name of the emulator, no source release or even what commit they built from. I wonder what the relationship is to LRG. This was originally announced as an LRG release but the current version lists Mighty Rabbit, which is a company founded by LRG's founder (who's since left LRG).
