I feel compelled to say that NOLF is awesome, and it's also source-available:

Please be careful using a release distributed on a site without TLS and links to other certain well-known file sharing sites.
I mean, NOLF was way ahead of its time. A parody that also was a really good game. Like, a parody that was not sarcastic or ironic. It is hard to describe.
Pastiche, perhaps?
Ye. Humourus pastiche.
This is my number one question - how to trust the executables from here :-/
You don't have to trust them to run them. Run them in a VM or sandbox.
Don't worry about the FUD imho https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fear,_uncertainty,_and_doubt
Personally I would trust a fan-made work distributed through MediaFire and MEGA (and there is nothing wrong with these services!) more than some corporate re-release riddled with DRM and “““analytics””” (the word we've collectively agreed to pretend doesn't mean “spying” lol)
that site has been around for quite a while, it's legitimate
