Streaming & fan art

Short version: yes. You do not need to ask, and you do not need to credit me, though it is kind when you do.

Video and streaming

Record it, stream it, put ads on it, take sponsorship for it, keep the money. This covers every game on this site, forever, including anything released later. I will not issue a takedown over a video of my own game — not for a bad review, not for a spoiler, not for a joke at my expense.

Fan art and fan projects

Draw it, write it, make a plush of it, print one for yourself. Selling your own original art of it at a convention table or online is fine too — that is your work, not mine. What is not fine is mass-producing merchandise using my art or logos, or anything that looks like official studio merch.

Mods and tinkering

The games run in a browser, so the code is in front of you. Pulling it apart, writing tools, building a tracker or a calculator — all welcome, and I will answer questions about the data formats. Please do not re-host a playable copy on your own domain: it splits the leaderboard, strands your players on an old version, and sends their bug reports nowhere.

If you are unsure

Ask: hello@hobnailgames.com. The answer is almost always yes, and it comes from one person rather than a legal department.
