TERMS OF SERVICE
[ THE SACRED CONTRACT OF DOOM ]
1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
By accessing and using why.games, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you don't agree, please leave immediately. This domain cost me $99 I didn't have.
2. USE OF SITE
You may use our Site and games for lawful purposes only. You agree NOT to:
- Hack, exploit, or cheat in games (they're already broken enough)
- Distribute malware or harmful code (we have enough bugs already)
- Scrape or copy our content without permission (why would you want to?)
- Use automated systems to artificially inflate scores (just git gud)
- Harass other users (there are no other users yet)
- Violate any applicable laws or regulations
3. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
All games and content on why.games are protected by copyright and sheer panic. The terminal-style interface and unique game implementations are our intellectual property.
Translation: We made this stuff at 3am fueled by energy drinks. Please don't steal it. We have nothing else.
Seriously though, we spent way too much time on this. Copying our code would be like stealing ramen from a college student. Not cool.
4. USER-GENERATED CONTENT
If you submit scores, comments, or other content, you grant us a non-exclusive license to use this content. We promise to only use it to:
- Show off that someone actually plays our games
- Prove that this project has users
- Improve and enhance our services
5. DISCLAIMER
Games are provided "as is" without warranties. We are not responsible for:
- Any loss of game progress or data
- Emotional damage from rage quitting
- Time lost that could've been productive
- The existential crisis from realizing you're playing games on a domain someone panic-bought
6. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
We shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Site. This includes but is not limited to:
- Loss of productivity
- Damaged keyboards from rage
- Strained relationships from ignoring loved ones to beat high scores
- The realization that you spent hours on browser games
Maximum liability: $99 (the cost of this domain)
7. PREMIUM SERVICES
If we ever offer premium features (unlikely, but dream big), additional terms and payment policies will apply.
8. TERMINATION
We reserve the right to terminate or suspend access to our Site for violations of these Terms. Reasons for termination may include:
- Violating these Terms of Service
- Actually expecting professional-quality games
- Trying to sell our games as NFTs (please don't)
- Making us question our life choices more than we already do
9. CHANGES TO TERMS
We may modify these Terms at any time, usually at 3am when we can't sleep. Continued use constitutes acceptance of modified Terms. We'll try to make changes obvious, but no promises - we're barely keeping this site running as is.
10. GOVERNING LAW
These Terms are governed by applicable international internet law and the laws of panic-driven development. Any disputes will be settled by playing best-of-three in our flagship sumo game.
