1. OVERVIEW
The Usage License outlines the general conditions for using all of our resources, assets, assets packs and 3D models (herein referred to as "Assets") for inclusion in non-commercial and commercial projects, which includes all individual assets and those included in packs (free or paid). These include all Assets created for RPG Developer Bakin, Smile Game Builder or other game engines.
2. GENERAL USAGE
By using the Assets in your projects, you agree to these terms for their use in your projects.
Some Assets may have separate Terms of Use and will be purchasable on the Gnome Treasure store and Itch.io. Additional license fees may apply (Section 3).
As a general rule, all Assets (whether free or paid) can be used in projects under the Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License (CC BY-ND 4.0). This means that you can copy and distribute the Assets in their unadapted form only as long as proper attribution is given (Section 4).
An asset pack that contains multiple assets, which counts as a single Asset, can be used in non-commercial and commercial games even if combined with other Assets.
3. LICENSING FEES
Depending on whether you use the Assets for non-commercial or commercial purposes, an appropriate licensing fee is required.
3.1 Non-Commercial Use
For non-commercial projects, attribution must be given (Section 5) and no additional fees apply. A minimum donation of $10, while not mandatory, is greatly appreciated (Section 4).
3.2 Commercial Use License
Use of Assets in commercial projects require a license fee.
- If you’re using the Assets in a free or freely distributed game, then the Non-Commercial Use applies.
- If you’re using the Assets in games that can be purchased or from which you are (or which you are intending on) making money, the Commercial Use applies.
3.2.1 Universal Use License
The Universal Use License grants non-exclusive rights to use the Assets in multiple commercial projects (up to 5) without needing to purchase separate Commercial Use Licenses for each project. The cost of this license is $50, which grants a $25 saving, if you get 5 single use licenses.
3.2.2 Single Use License
For individual projects, the Single Use License grants non-exclusive rights to use the Assets in one project only and costs $15 per project. If they are then used in another future project, an additional license fee is required.
If you intend to use or are planning on using the Assets in more than one project, the Universal Use License will be your best option.
