Great question!
Due to the nature of copyright and trademark laws the direct use of any protected intellectual property, whether for sale or not, will be infringing on copyright laws.

I hope this helps :D
Hi! Thank you for hosting this game jam, the theme is simply great! :)
In my case, I made a little experiment about an old film using some fragments of the movie itself, but "L'Atalante" is in the public domain already so it shouldn't be a problem, right? Sadly Vigo died the same year the film was distributed, that is 1934... Thank you in advance for the advice and the attention, hope you have a wonderful day :D
