Yes, since it's a zip file at the end of an executable; zip files have footers, or in other words, the part that the operating system understands a file to be a zip archive is at the end of the file, and extracting a zip file is not rocket science either.

That said, encryption is not what protects your projects, the license does; encryption will only be a deterrent for so long; if someone does want access to the contents, they will find a way, sooner or later.

(And we already had this discussion a few times on the forums, and elsewhere too...)

Also, the distribution part on the wiki does start with distributing .love files plainly, and again, those are simple zip archives, so it's very easy to decompress them and see what's inside.

Soooo. Code protection can fail but license no... Cool!

Also, stop deleting the meaningful part of your thread titles, it's bad form.

Yep, and the same goes for the thread content. It's pointless and confusing to wipe out your own threads once they've been answered. Imagine if most of the threads here were deleted messages...
