I was under the impression that in order for a game to be libre, you needed to make the source available.

To your users, yes. Not necessarily to the whole world (although your users are free to redistribute it).

Contrary to onpon4, I consider the NC and/or the ND components of some Creative Commons license OK as long as the work is not functional... but, like she wrote, there should be no software licensed under an NC or ND license! The GPL or the AGPL probably are the best choices for software you refuse to see ending up in proprietary software.

And, well, do not hope you will make (much) money first your first graphical game. It probably won't happen... but the acquired fame can help you to raise revenues with your second game.

Something else: use an existing engine or, even, consider contributing to an existing project rather than creating a small game alone.
