Just to be precise, only the game engine is open source. "Images are licensed under a Creative Commons License and are provided separately," and this CC license is BY-NC-SA which is neither FSF- nor OSI-compliant.

Is there a way to release an HTML5 game that isn't open source (viewable code)? Other than obfuscating the code isn't it necessarily available to the user?

Will be interesting to see if this benefits the original game any later on. Maybe people will write Android games using it and contribute back the ability to the original, etc.. Or maybe they won't, etc..

Excellent, this is great stuff. I wish they had released a separate HTML5 Game Engine. At a glance, it looks like everything is tied pretty closely to the game itself. I've been looking at engines like Isogenic and Construct 2, but here you have a large HTML5 game larger than most had been able to demonstrate. Plus, its open source, where the previously mentioned engines are closed source and require a license purchase, although Construct 2 has pretty good documentation on how to make games. I really like what Wooga did with this.
