Little Marble

Terms of Service

1. Who we are and what this is

Little Marble is a game about waking a small planet that fell asleep: you dig through the old sheds, build machines, routes and pipes, unlock new ones as the land wakes, and water the land until it lives again. It is made by Dyxo ("we", "us"). These terms are an agreement between you and Dyxo, and they apply whenever you use the game, its website or its apps (together, "the game"). By playing, you accept them. If you don't, please don't play. How we handle your data is explained in the Privacy Policy.

2. Who can play

You must be at least 13 years old. If you are under the age at which you can agree to these terms on your own in your country, a parent or guardian must agree to them for you.

3. Your planet lives on your device

The game runs in your browser or app, and your planet is saved there, on your device. There is no account and no copy of your planet on our side. If you clear your browser's data for the game, uninstall it, switch device or lose your device, your planet is gone, and we can't bring it back.

4. Fair use

When you use the game, please don't:

Changing your own save on your own device only changes your own game: that's yours to do, though we can't help if it breaks. If you find a bug, we'd love to hear about it.

5. Our game

The game itself (its code, art, models, icons, music, sounds, name and logo) belongs to Dyxo or its licensors. We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to play it for your own non-commercial use. You're welcome to share screenshots and videos of your planet, including on channels where you earn money; please don't use the game's name or logo in a way that suggests we made or endorse what you share.

The goods and other things you gather in the game are part of the game: they have no value outside it and can't be exchanged for real money.

6. A game in progress

Little Marble is in development. We change it often: rules, numbers, machines and the look of things may change, features may come and go, and a change may make an older save behave differently or no longer open. The game is free. If we ever offer something for sale, we'll show you its price and terms before you pay, and we'll never sell an advantage.

7. Your feedback and the play log

The settings (☰) can show a log of how you played (what you built and when), for playtests. It stays on your device and only leaves it if you copy it and send it to us yourself. If you send us the log, ideas or other feedback, you let us use them, free of charge, to improve the game, without having to credit or pay you.

8. App stores

If you got the game from an app store (such as Apple's App Store or Google Play), that store's terms also apply. These terms are between you and Dyxo only, not the store, which isn't responsible for the game or its support.

9. No guarantees, and limits

We work hard to keep the game running and fun, but it is provided "as is" and "as available": we can't promise it will always be available, free of bugs, or that your planet will never be lost. To the extent the law allows, Dyxo is not liable for indirect losses, for losing a save, or for losses caused by your device or connection or by events outside our reasonable control.

Nothing in these terms limits rights you have as a consumer that the law of your country doesn't let us limit, or our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud, gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

10. Stopping

You can stop playing at any time; clearing the game's data from your browser or uninstalling the app removes everything it kept on your device. We may stop offering the game, or a version of it, at any time; if we close the game for good, we'll say so on its website in advance when we can.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the game grows, for example when friends can play together, when saves move online or if something goes on sale. We'll change the date at the top and, for important changes, tell you in the game before they apply. If you keep playing after that, the new terms apply.

12. Law and disputes

These terms are governed by French law. If you are a consumer living elsewhere, you also keep the protection of the mandatory rules of your country, and you may bring a claim in your local courts. If something goes wrong, write to us first: most problems are fixed faster that way.
