Global Terms

These terms apply to every game I (Meiri) have worked on in the past and will develop in the future. These terms are subject to change.

Do not reupload my games to other sites. The only sites you can download my projects from are itch.io, Steam, the Google Play Store, and my Tumblr (hosted on Google Drive). If you're making a translation, I'd rather you let me host it myself.

Fanworks, Commercial Products, Streams & Videos

Overall, please consider that I'm a solo hobbyist spending hundreds of hours working on free videogames for everyone. I write, code, draw, and promote my games by myself.

  • Accepting individual commissions involving my characters is okay. However, making merchandise or any monetary gain involving the game, its characters, graphics, or music, is not allowed. E.g. you can't sell keychains at conventions, but a personal commission portrait is fine.
  • If you're livestreaming or recording the games, please link it properly and do it in good faith. Let me know — I'd love to watch it!
  • Addendum: The majority of let's players who have played my games are small hobbyist creators, and I have no problem with them monetizing their videos. Unless you're getting millions of views, monetizing your playthroughs is completely fine!
  • Creating non-monetized content is accepted. Fanart and fanvideos are allowed as long as they're not monetized.
  • Ripping the games' graphical or musical assets is not permitted.
  • Using the games, its characters, or its assets to promote hate speech — against sexuality, gender identity, race, religion, or otherwise — is not allowed.

Modding (Updated 2023)

I allow some modding, but there must be a clear and concise warning that the mod is non-canonical and not made by Meiri. I will not fix bugs caused by mods.

Things you CAN do in mods:

  • Add new routes, choices, endings, or fan characters (expansions are ok)
  • Add new music and artwork made by you that does not aim to replace the original content
  • Create new scenarios featuring the game's cast (AUs, fan sequels, what-ifs)
  • Edit in memes, audio bits, or other crack-adjacent content

Things you CANNOT do in mods:

  • Rewrite the original story or replace graphics/music with the intent to "fix" or "improve" it — including replacing portraits
  • Mod in content that breaks the terms above (hateful content, bigotry, etc.)
  • Add pornography, nudity, or explicit sexual content. My games have underage characters.
  • Erase characters' sexuality, gender expression/identity, or race. No straightwashing or whitewashing. 99% of my characters are queer.

Other Topics

  • Regarding the use of HD assets packs, please read and respect those separate terms.
  • In the event games are taken down for breaching these terms, please do not reupload or share them any longer.

If you're unsure whether your content breaches these terms, message me and ask.
