Terms of Service: Intellectual Property Rights
1. Ownership: All original content, including but not limited to games, videos, artwork, designs, characters, and code ("Content") created and shared by me, is my exclusive intellectual property. I retain all rights, title, and interest in and to the Content.
2. Restrictions on Use: Except as explicitly permitted in Section 3 (Game Modifications), you are expressly prohibited from doing the following without obtaining prior written permission from me: * Redistributing Games: Copying, distributing, sharing, selling, modifying, or making available any games developed by me. * Redistributing Videos: Copying, distributing, sharing, uploading, or publicly performing any videos created by me. * Misappropriating Artwork: Claiming authorship of, copying, modifying, distributing, selling, or otherwise using any artwork created by me. Presenting my artwork as your own is strictly forbidden.
3. Game Modifications (Mods): * Permission Granted: Notwithstanding Section 2, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to create modifications ("Mods") for games specifically designated by me as moddable. This permission applies solely to creating user-generated content that alters, enhances, or adds to the gameplay or visual elements of the designated game(s). * Ownership of Mods: While you may own the original expression of your specific contributions to a Mod, I retain full ownership of the underlying game, its code, assets, and all related intellectual property. By creating a Mod, you acknowledge that it is a derivative work based on my original Content. * Distribution: You may share your Mods freely (non-commercially). You may not sell your Mods or charge users for access to them. Any distribution must clearly label the content as an unofficial user-created Mod and state that it is not endorsed or supported by me. * Limitations: Mods must not contain malicious code, infringe on third-party rights (like using copyrighted music you don't have a license for), contain hateful, illegal, or offensive content, or attempt to circumvent copy protection or enable piracy. * No Support/Liability: Mods are user-generated. I do not provide support for Mods and am not responsible for any damage, errors, or issues they may cause to your game or system. Use Mods at your own risk. * Reservation of Rights: I reserve the right to revoke this permission to create Mods, or to use, incorporate, or feature any created Mods related to my game(s) at my discretion.
4. Requesting Other Permissions: If you wish to use any of my Content in a way not permitted by these terms (including uses beyond the scope of Section 3), you must contact me directly to request explicit written permission.
