OpenMoji: Open-source emojis

Sweet!

I'm making an android game and UTF8 emojis are great for UI icons. I'm currently using the Google Noto one but it's certainly not usable in games.

I'm waiting for Godot 4 to allow me to display android native emojis from the system font, but I'm not sure yet it will really work.

I now want to try if I can use this font for my icons, as long as godot allows me to load a font and pick UTF8 character by their codepoint.

Why is noto a no-go for games? License?

Noto uses Apache-2.0 [1] which should be fine for most stuff.

So does that mean I can publish a game using those icons, and earn money with micro transactions?

Yes, under certain conditions. In particular pay attention to the requirements for redistribution under clause 4 and the lack of trademark license specified in clause 6.
