Not that any of them is bad, but in my opinion if you want the game to be the (semi?) official game of jME, then I think it makes perfect sense to make it have its same license.
But GPL is problematic for commercial projects that might want to use some parts of this game
jME is under BSD
If you just want to raise awareness, show off engine capabilities etc, then leave it bsd.
If you think the game could end up making lots of money and don't want anybody actually doing so, then gpl it.
If you feel the game is going to make you lots of money, then close source it and do so.
Whatever logic was applied to make the engine bsd licensed should probably be applied to this as well.
It's part of JME… BSD is probably the winner anyways.

Money? Well, Googles Chrome is BSD, right? Money? Google? Not much, huh....;)
the source needs to be free for everyone to copy and use how ever he/she wants, as it should be a 'best practices' example on how to use jme.
Now, that the project is created, this poll is closed. Licence is BSD, the project can be found here: http://www.jmonkeyengine.com/jmeforum/index.php?topic=9507.0
