It isn't open source, it's source available. You have not licensed your source code, it is thus under copyright.

Please read the open source definition; https://opensource.org/osd.

There are other phrases that are usable, such as source first (in the case of FUTO licenses) or source available (when source is under copyright but is provided).

The engine, being actually MIT, is however open source.

Thank you for sharing, I'm just starting to dig into Lua language and Love2D game engine.

I will explore your game source too.

Thanks for sharing! Good old README.md in the repo would not hurt :)

There's nothing in that repo showing what the game actually is? And url the repo is pointing at (https://reprobate.site/) is asking for login credentials.
