Legal
End User License Agreement
The "Plain English" Summary
The Deal: We license our games to you for personal fun. You don’t own the game, but you get to play it as long as you follow the rules.
Don’t Cheat: No hacks, bots, memory readers, or reverse engineering. Our games may check for cheat programs while you play, and if they find one, we can ban the account.
Updates: Online games change. We push updates, and sometimes you need to install one to keep playing.
Buying Stuff: Purchases go through the store you play on (Steam, PlayStation, Xbox, Apple, or Google) under that store’s payment and refund rules.
The Rest: Our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy also apply. If they say something different from this Agreement about a specific topic, the more specific rule wins.
Carbon Games End User License Agreement
This End User License Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between you and Carbon Games Inc. (“Carbon Games,” “we,” or “us”) and governs your use of our games, including AirMech and Fat Princess, together with their software, updates, and related content (the “Game”). By installing, copying, or playing the Game, you agree to this Agreement, to our Terms of Service, and to our Privacy Policy, both of which are part of this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not install or play the Game.
1. Limited Use License
The Game is licensed to you, not sold. Subject to this Agreement, Carbon Games grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install the Game on devices you own or control and to play it for your personal, non-commercial entertainment. Streaming, recording, and sharing videos of your play is allowed and encouraged.
Except as we expressly permit, you agree not to: (a) sell, rent, lease, lend, or transfer the Game or your account to anyone else; (b) copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or create derivative works of the Game, except where the law expressly allows it despite this restriction; (c) use the Game for any commercial purpose; (d) use or distribute cheats, hacks, bots, scripts, trainers, automation, or any program that reads the Game’s memory, intercepts or emulates its communication with our servers, or otherwise gives an unfair advantage; or (e) remove or hide any copyright, trademark, or other notice in the Game.
2. Ownership
All rights, title, and interest in the Game, including its code, art, characters, names, stories, music, sounds, and designs, are owned or licensed by Carbon Games and protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. This Agreement gives you no ownership interest in the Game or in any Virtual Goods, which are governed by our Terms of Service.
3. Accounts and Age
Playing online requires an account, either a Carbon Games account or a platform account. You must provide accurate information, keep your credentials secret, and tell us promptly at support@carbongames.com if you believe your account has been compromised. You are responsible for activity on your account.
You must be at least 13 years old, or at least 16 if you live in the European Union or the United Kingdom, to play. If you are under 18, you need a parent or legal guardian’s permission. If you allow your child to play using your account, you accept this Agreement on their behalf and are responsible for their use of the account, including any purchases.
4. Your Conduct
Our Terms of Service Code of Conduct applies in the Game. In particular, you agree not to harass or threaten other players, post their personal information, impersonate anyone, exploit bugs to gain an unfair advantage or defraud players, upload content that is unlawful or infringes others’ rights, interfere with the Game or its servers, or access parts of the Game or our systems that are not made available to players.
5. Anti-Cheat Monitoring
While you play, the Game may scan your device’s memory and running processes for unauthorized programs that interact with the Game. If one is detected, the Game may report it to us without notice, including your account, IP address, details of the program, and the time of detection. We use this information only to keep the Game fair, as described in our Privacy Policy. Detected cheating may result in restrictions or a permanent ban.
6. Updates
We may release updates to the Game at any time, and some updates must be installed to keep playing online. By launching the Game you allow it to download and install updates on your device. Updates may add, change, rebalance, or remove features and content.
7. Purchases
Our games may be free to play or paid, and may offer optional content and Virtual Goods for purchase. Purchases are made through the platform store you play on (such as Steam, PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store, the Apple App Store, or Google Play) under that store’s payment terms and refund policy. We do not process payments ourselves and never see your full payment details. Virtual Goods are a limited license, have no real-world value, and are otherwise governed by our Terms of Service.
8. Termination
You can end this Agreement at any time by uninstalling the Game. We may suspend or terminate your license and account if you breach this Agreement or our Terms of Service, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Game. Our games are online services that depend on our servers; we may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Game or any feature at any time, and we will give reasonable advance notice when practical. When your license ends you must stop playing and uninstall the Game.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability
The Game is provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, and we do not promise that the Game will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. Our liability to you is limited as set out in the Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability section of our Terms of Service. Nothing in this Agreement limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including under mandatory consumer protection laws where you live.
10. Indemnification
If a third party brings a claim against Carbon Games because you broke this Agreement, infringed someone’s rights, or misused the Game, you agree to cover the reasonable costs, including attorney fees, that we incur as a result.
11. Export Controls
The Game is subject to US export laws. You may not use or export it in violation of those laws, and you confirm that you are not located in an embargoed country or on a US government restricted-party list.
12. Governing Law and Disputes
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Washington. Disputes are handled as described in the Governing Law & Arbitration section of our Terms of Service, including its arbitration opt-out and the protections for EU and UK residents.
13. Changes to This Agreement
We may update this Agreement as the Game and the law evolve. Changes are not retroactive. When we make material changes we will post the updated Agreement with a new "Last Updated" date and, where practical, notify you in the Game, on our website, or by email. Continuing to play after a change means you accept the updated Agreement.
14. General
You may not assign this Agreement without our written consent. If any part of this Agreement is found unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. This Agreement, together with our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, is the entire agreement between you and Carbon Games about the Game. Notices to you may be sent by email, in the Game, or on our website; notices to us go to legal@carbongames.com.
