@MouseByTheSea So indies are already pretty allergic to DRM, which ultimately means not worrying about piracy too much. Hard to imagine pirates getting too excited about the source code when they have the binary anyway.
So I just include the source code with the game's resources so there will always be a way to get it running on something new (or old). Also, maybe someone will benefit from seeing how I made something too. Who knows.

@slembcke Indeed, DRM is pointless in most games, esp the indie space. Still, releasing code is nice and generous. Since its GPL I won't look myself, but hopefully people can learn from it.
