The short version

Playing

Every build on the shelf can be played in a browser without an account. No payment is required to play, and no subscription is created. The games run from this site; we do not install anything on your device.

Adapted and original builds

24 shelf builds are adapted from open-source projects under MIT, Unlicense or a similar permissive licence. Each adapted game page names the author, the licence and the upstream repository, and those licences continue to apply to the upstream code. The other 80 builds are original work made for this site and are marked "original build" on their pages. If you reuse an adapted build, keep the copyright and permission notice that came with it.

We do not claim authorship of upstream games. We do claim the 80 original builds, their code and their theme art. Where we changed an adapted build's shell, asset paths, UI language or palette, the game page and the sources page say so.

Exports, rebuilds and custom work

Paid work is quoted by hand after we see the brief. The listed prices — $29 for an export, from $199 for a rebuild, from $299 for a custom build — are starting points, not a checkout. Nothing is charged until scope, delivery format and price are confirmed in writing.

An export is a re-skin of a hosted build, not a source-code delivery. Source handover is available on rebuild projects when agreed in advance. A custom build is a new browser game built for the brief; it is not a Unity, console or native mobile project.

If you agree to let a custom build join the public shelf, the quoted price can be reduced by $100. That discount is optional. Work kept private is priced without it.

What we do not promise

• That a build matches a brief exactly. Matching finds the closest existing loop; it does not generate one.
• That a build is bug-free or complete. We test that it loads and responds to input in a short session.
• That a build is exclusive. Upstream open-source code may be used by anyone under its licence.
• That a browser build will run on every device, browser or network.
• That a competitor's public pricing stays the same. Comparison pages record the date we checked.

Acceptable use

Do not use the site to break the law, to redistribute a build without its licence notice, or to present an upstream author's work as your own. Do not attempt to disrupt the site or the games it serves.

Changes

These terms can change as the shelf and the paid work change. The date at the top records the last revision. Questions go through the contact page.
