Some people have written to me to ask for clarification about the license. I'm going to post these questions for the benefit of all users as I understand there still may be doubts about the license. If you have a question about the license or see something which you feel isn't clear please write to me.
Can I use your graphics for my apps? I usually make free apps with advertising?
Yes of course. this is their intended purpose
Can I upload my game to, play store, app store, steam etc with your assets in?
Yes of course, As the license holder you can publish your media project on as many platforms as you wish under your name or complany name.
By saying non exclusive rights. In general does that mean I can, or cannot use an asset for commercial use?
Firstly, yes you can use assets from the site for commercial games. Non exclusive rights means that you don't own full copyright permissions over the asset, this allows me to re-license the asset to other users, but you do have permission to use asset in your commercial games or apps.
can I make and commercially release a game using just your free assets?
yes, you certainly can.
I'm using your assets for upgrades in my game, where users pay for upgrade items, e.g more powerful weapons, faster cars more gold etc. Does the license allow this?
Yes of course. you can use the assets in your game in anyway you wish.
I'm using your assets in an online game development course, can I include your assets for download so users can follow along?
No, sorry! Whilst you are allowed to use the assets in your tutorials, be they, videos, text or photographic in nature, offering the assets for download would be considered as redistribution an license duplication. In order to protect my work and in fairness for users who have rightly purchased a license, redistribution is prohibited .
Can I use the assets in an NFT game I'm creating
yes and No. You cannot allow others to publish, duplicate or sell the assets unless they hold a license. You can use the assets from this site to create your game or build your game environment for example. But they can never be released to others for sale, or publishing as NFT's on NFT market places.
