Is there a way to decompile a game to get the resources?

HI all! (anybody left)
Several years ago I used game editor to recreate an awesome asteroids game I previously written way back in the 90's for the PC and gp2x. yesterday I found a zip of a demo exe and gp2x executable, but the game editor source is long lost. I'd like to post the demo here for posterity, but the forum rules say no posts without source and I don't have it anymore.

Is there a way to decompile a game editor executable to get the source and parts?
Here's a video of the original game. The demo I have from game editor is playable but not finished.

Looks cool, nice version of Asteroids.
Not sure how to decompile a game, but that would be interesting if there was a way.
In the Game Development section, you can post a game or link to it, without the source material.
