Game Repo Leak Scanner
Create a repository scanning tool that detects sensitive assets, build-ready content, and commercially important files before a game project is made public. This serves solo developers and indies who want automated confidence checks instead of manual review.
Por qué es importante
You have a game project that mixes code, imported assets, placeholders, paid content, and build configuration. When you prepare a public repo or open-source release, it is hard to know what can safely remain. The common workaround is to remove assets manually, split content into separate repos, or trust your own memory. That is risky because game projects are messy and often include engine-specific folders that are easy to overlook. A scanner built for game repositories could act like a publishing safety net, warning you before you expose files that make the project too easy to repackage or that create licensing problems.

Alcance del MVP · 1-2 semanas
- Define risky file and folder rules for Unity and Godot projects
- Build local and cloud scanning service that returns flagged paths and issue categories
- Create simple web dashboard to upload or connect a repository
- Add report output with severity, explanation, and suggested action
- Publish a free checklist lead magnet to capture early users
- Add GitHub app integration for pull request checks
- Implement custom rules so users can mark files as safe or blocked
- Add detection for common secret patterns and third-party package credentials
- Ship one-click generation of a sanitized export manifest
- Collect scan results from beta users to refine rule accuracy
Diferenciación
Por qué esto podría fallar
Autorrefutación: la señal de confianza más importante
- 1Developers may feel that cloning risk is overstated and choose not to pay for preventive tooling.
- 2Generic DevSecOps and secret-scanning tools may expand into this area faster than a niche product can differentiate.
- 3The product must be highly accurate; if it misses one sensitive folder, trust can collapse quickly.
Resumen de evidencia
Cómo la IA sintetizó esta información: sin citas textuales
Several participants described practical safeguards such as excluding art assets, keeping production repositories private, and moving only isolated mechanics into public demos. That pattern reveals repeated manual effort around deciding what should never be exposed. The opportunity is strongest where automation can reduce accidental leakage and simplify release preparation for game-specific repository structures.
