[Jan 5 2026]: Made a couple of additions to both the Acceptable and Forbidden Usage Contexts.
This is how I feel regarding certain usages of my work. Also note the "Forbidden Usage Contexts" section towards the bottom of the page, as those apply to every potential medium.
If you have any additional questions about any of these things, please email me: treegravy[at]tuta[dot]com.
DO NOT SEND HARASSMENT TO OTHERS IN MY NAME UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. If you are being harassed by anyone who claims to be a fan of mine, whatever the reason may be, please know that I DID NOT SEND THEM and I DO NOT CONDONE THAT BEHAVIOR.
**NOTE: In regards to the soundtrack, these usage policies apply only to the songs that I made myself. Usage policies may differ among tracks depending on the original creator of each track.
Acceptable Usage Contexts
- Videos/Livestreams: Go for it. I also do not mind if you monetize videos/streams of the game. I only ask that you provide an easily accessible link to the game somewhere for your viewers.
- Using assets from the game itself (sprites, etc): I don't mind. Just say where you got them from.
- General creative fan content (fanart, edits, fanfic, fangames, OCs, yumeshipping, etc): I would cry my eyes out. I would be honored.
- Customizing profiles (avatars, usernames, etc): Same as above. Again, if you directly use assets from the game, please give credit.
- Fictionkin/Fictives (iykyk): I'm fine with both of these things. (I'm aware that these are two different concepts entirely, and that the existence of fictives is often completely involuntary; I just thought to address them both in one point due to their similarites/obscurity, and I wanted to clearly state my personal acceptance of fictives.)
Forbidden Usage Contexts
Applicable to any and all potential media making use of my work. Please do not:
- Use my work for your own (commercial) branding
- Re-sell my work (more specifically, profit off of non-transformative content involving my work; selling things such as prints of fanart, so long as you are the creator/have permission to redistribute said works, is acceptable)
- Use any elements of my work in child exploitative material (fictional children or not, that part doesn't matter.)
- Use any elements of my work in content that promotes hateful, harmful, and/or exploitative ideals, such as racism, xenophobia, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, antisemitism, paedophilia, zoophilia, and the like
- Depict my characters as being in incestuous relationships with each other (e.g. shipping the goddess Twins)
- Use any part of my work as data for training any generative AI algorithms
Regarding Adult Content
So long as it follows the rest of these guidelines, and so long as you're doing what you can to prevent unassuming passers-by from stumbling across it on accident, I'm fine with it existing inherently. I personally don't go searching for adult content online in general anyways, so you don't need to feel embarrassed about the prospect of me potentially seeing it, if that matters to you.
Night of Eternal Night is being solo-developed by Ev Holloway (treegravy).
