So i basically reverse engineered some Small 6502 Assembly Code for research as i wanna remake the entire Thing in x86 Assembly and wanted to ask as to would Licnese would be most appliceable to such Cases? >.>
Mostly due to the Fact that Public Domain Code is usealy not Good as depending where you live it can mean anything or can even be illegal from what ive read in some Country? D:
I suppose the best bet would be something like MIT-0 or maybe even LGPL considering im translatating the Code from another Language to a different one? >.>
But im still unsure if that counts a Derivative or what a Translation even can be licensed at all? >.>
Atleast the Copyrighted Assets have to be provided yourself from the Original Program so im in the Clear on that Front but the Code is the scariest Part as itd rather not get into Legal Trouble to be fair :(

    ah alright then :0
    Thanks! :D
    and yea i did refer the 6502 Assembly Code which i got via a Emulator Debugger basically so ill probably just attach the CC0-1.0-Universal License to my Translation and call it a Day :P
    I would say it is very much not a derivative due to the Way the Hardware works/differs but hm ill just have to see really >.>
