The stack we actually used
Ice Breaker layers free assets to reach a commercial look: a free cartoon UI pack, CC0 impact and interface sounds, a Korean display font that is free for commercial use, and a music track from a free audio site. None of them is a problem on its own. The problem is that adding them across several months always leaves one file whose origin nobody remembers.
Not a license problem, a record problem
CC0 needs no attribution, and it still needs a record. What you have to answer at store submission is not the license terms but where this file came from. Without a record you cannot prove any terms at all.
Keep these five lines per folder.
- The address you downloaded from
- The license name
- Whether an attribution string is required
- Whether commercial use is allowed
- The date you fetched it
ThirdParty/Audio_Impacts/LICENSE.txt
source: https://example.test/impact-pack
license: CC0 1.0
attribution: not required
commercial: allowed
fetched: 2026-06-18Do not audit by eye
Scanning folders visually misses the gap. A script that lists folders without a license file costs seconds every time after you write it once.
$ find Assets/ThirdParty -mindepth 1 -maxdepth 1 -type d \
'!' -exec test -e '{}/LICENSE.txt' ';' -print
Assets/ThirdParty/Music_SummerExpected result and next step
An empty script output means this audit is done. Fonts are next: a Korean font often states embedding permission separately from its license, so read that line on its own.
