The assets are licensed under CC-BY-SA, so that's fine. I plan to release the full assets pack with the new and modified assets anyways, and will credit the original creators properly.

I'm mainly concerned about the community's reaction.

    I am building a game using the Super Tux assets. It is NOT an asset flip, game has a totally different main concept, new mechanics, 4 new boss fights, built with a different engine.

    When I first started building the game, it was supposed to be a FOSS game. But after spending a ton of sleepless nights working on it, I would like to get compensated.

    Donations will probably not cut it, judging by what most FOSS games go through. I'm a huge fan of FOSS, so it does feel wrong releasing a commercial games where 80% of the assets are from volunteer work.

    On the other hand, the license approves of this. If they have an issue with it, they would have chosen another license, correct?

    What do you think?

    Do you train at home? I thought about getting some stuff, but I just feel it would get repetitively boring. And getting some machines is not cost effective at all. It would take years for it to pay for itself.
