A couple of modders are currently working on an offline mod for the troubled The Day Before, which would add an offline mode.

• Modders are working on an offline mod for troubled game The Day Before.

• Development studio Fntastic has closed its doors and the game’s servers will shut down in January.

• Luci0 and fskartd are working on a crack that would allow players to play the game offline.

    Judging by screenshots, such a shame for so much hard work to go to waste. Wish they would open source it. I would suggest AGPL to protect their IP from being stolen(IANAL so don’t quote me), but I would take anything if it meant the work of talented people didn’t go to waste.

    Hopefully a modding scene can thrive and make something decent from these ashes.

        IANAL = I Am Not A Lawyer

        I can’t tell if you’re making a joke or not so there is the definition of the acronym. I added the comment because AGPL may not be the best suited license for it or any similar project. But from what I can recall, AGPL also requires forks/modifications for SaaS purposes to also make their source code available. Whereas GPL, or any others from what I can tell(again not a lawyer), does not require forks/modifications for SaaS to follow the same license.
