This is great! As an indie game developer I care a great deal about game preservation. The game I'm working on requires Internet upon the first start and seamlessly syncs game state across your devices, but I pushed for open sourcing as much code as possible. We released 75% of the game's code under the MIT License[1], even before the game's full release. With the infra we built, we can publish the entire source within minutes once the game is no longer commercially viable.

FYI if I click play nothing happens. Also not clear how to get the game on iOS (I love a good advance wars-like game)

The play button should just scroll you down to the demo embedded on the website ( https://athenacrisis.com )

To play on iOS, you can install it from here: https://app.athenacrisis.com/download

You get an account either by buying it directly on athenacrisis.com or via Steam.
