License for go-play? #31

Hi,

What's the license for go-play? I think the dual-core implementation for Video & audio buffers is perfect for a game engine that utilizes these optimized methods. Is the license for go-play MIT?

If we decide to write an engine on top of this, we'd make it MIT like we did for our EVADE Arduboy games: https://github.com/ModusCreateOrg/evade2

Thanks :D

go-play builds on top of several existing emulators. I know NES emulator roots from nofrendo. Its license is GPLv2.

But I'm not sure the license of the modification from go-play and its porting work to ESP32.

All the individual emulators have a GPLv2 license. Since libraries are compiled and linked into a single binary, this means GPLv2 also applies to all code modifications and additions.

TL;DR = License is GPLv2
