May be of interest to some. The leaker has included everything else needed to build the game in an accompanying Mega upload.

I've heard about this for quite some time, first hearing about it around August 21, 2021 (the original TAR archive it comes from seems to be dated around that period, although when extracted the folder says it's from 2015). I find it interesting to see someone include everything required to build it (along with a compiled build of the game,) it kind of reminds me when someone did the same thing with 'SpongeBob SquarePants: SuperSponge' for the PlayStation 1.

I remember back when this leaked, I thought “oh wow imagine all the cool stuff we’re gonna get from this” yet surprisingly very little if not anything at all was done with this.

I personally think the reason for this is the dubious legality. Considering this isn't an official release, or even a cleanroom reverse engineer for that matter, creating and distributing modifications to this source code is a very gray area legally and it's probably not a headache a lot of people want to go through. That being said, it would be still cool if someone else did stuff with this in due time.
