Fully bundled 3D game: HexGL ships from a pinned upstream source revision with all required tracks, models, textures, scripts and audio inside PLAYCHIVE. The copied runtime removes legacy analytics and remote icon requests; it does not fetch playable content from another site. Root code is MIT-licensed, while individual upstream files retain their own notices, including the non-commercial ShipControls file and the sound attributions.
