This is kind of a weird request, but I recently discovered that Barotrauma’s source code is available on github. I own the game and plan to play it that way, but hypothetically could I download the files, compile the game, and play it that way?

    Yeah, according to the Contributing.md on the github it is missing some files that are included if you buy a copy of the game:

    The BarotraumaShared/Content folder, which contains Barotrauma’s art, item XMLs, sounds, and other assets, is not included in the GitHub repository. If you have a legal copy of the game, you can copy the Content folder from the game’s files to BarotraumaShared/Content.
