VVVVVV's source code is made available under a custom license, which states that you must not distribute any materials from the game (i.e. the game's assets) which are not included in this repo unless approved by us in writing. In general, if you're interested in creating something that falls outside the license terms, get in touch with Terry!

There is an important general exception: if you're compiling a Make and Play version of the game, then you can you freely distribute the game's assets.

The following is a list of projects which have been given permission by Terry to distribute the assets with distributions of the game, and under what conditions.
