As far as the file being built, an excerpt from the build log:
VFS file was opened /tmp/guix-build-astromenace-1.4.1.drv-0/source/gamedata/models/models.pack
models/tracked/tank-07.vw3d file added to VFS.
models/earthfighter/sf-illum01.vw2d file added to VFS.
models/militarybuilding/aa-gun-01.vw3d file added to VFS.
models/earthfighter/sf-09.vw3d file added to VFS.
models/alienmothership/alm-02.vw3d file added to VFS.
<..snip..>
models/normalmap/planet_asteroids_nm.tga file added to VFS.
models/normalmap/q_class2_nm.tga file added to VFS.
models/normalmap/bomber_nm.tga file added to VFS.
models/normalmap/buildings_nm.tga file added to VFS.
lang/pl/menu/button_weaponry_in.tga file added to VFS.
lang/pl/menu/button_weaponry_out.tga file added to VFS.
VFS file was created /tmp/guix-build-astromenace-1.4.1.drv-0/build/gamedata.vfs

As for Debian placing it in non-free, it might be worth checking the
licenses and files again.
