1. The agreement
These terms are an agreement between you and Vivek Kumar, trading as BlueBurp Studio ("BlueBurp", "we"), an independent developer based in India. They cover the website blueburp.com and every game we publish on Google Play under the BlueBurp Studio name (currently 2048 Tilewick, Gembao, Cretopia). By using the website or installing a game you accept these terms and our privacy policy.
Games are distributed through Google Play. Google's Play Terms of Service also apply to your download; they are between you and Google. Where these terms and Google's terms differ in relation to the store, Google's terms govern the store and ours govern the game.
2. Age and eligibility
Our games are intended for players aged 13 and above. If you are under 18 (or the age of majority where you live), play only with a parent or guardian's permission, and have them contact us on your behalf. The website's contact form is meant for adults.
3. Using the website
You may browse the website, play the in-browser demo and send genuine enquiries. Do not send spam or unlawful content, probe or overload the site or its contact endpoint, scrape it for commercial use, misrepresent who you are, or try to access anything not meant for you.
4. Using our games
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and play our games on Android devices you own or control, for your own entertainment and in line with these terms. The games are licensed, not sold. We may end the licence if you breach these terms; otherwise it lasts as long as the game is available.
Progress, scores and settings are stored on your device. We cannot restore them if you uninstall the game, change phones or clear the app's data.
5. Advertising
Our games are free and supported by ads served through Google AdMob. Ads are selected and delivered by Google and its partners, not by us, and we do not endorse what they advertise. We do not place ads in ways that mislead you, block gameplay unfairly or imitate game controls. If an ad looks wrong, report it through the contact form. How ads use data is explained in the privacy policy.
6. No purchases
Our games contain no in-app purchases, subscriptions, virtual currency or loot boxes. If that ever changes for a game, its Google Play listing and these terms will say so clearly before the change is released, and consumer-protection rules for refunds will apply.
7. What you agree not to do
- Copy, modify, decompile, reverse-engineer or create derivative works from a game, except where the law expressly allows it.
- Distribute, sell, rent or sublicense a game, or remove or alter any notices in it.
- Use bots, cheats, modified clients or ad-blocking tools that interfere with a game or its ads.
- Use a game or the website to break the law or to harm, harass or deceive anyone.
- Interfere with the operation or security of the website, the games or Google Play.
8. Ownership and feedback
The games, the website, the BlueBurp name, the Burpy panda character, logos, artwork, code, text and design are owned by Vivek Kumar and protected by copyright and other laws of India and international treaties. You may share screenshots and videos of our games for personal, non-commercial purposes, including on social media and video platforms, as long as you do not suggest we endorse you.
"2048" refers to a widely known puzzle concept; our implementation, puzzles, art and name "2048 Tilewick" are our own work. The name Gembao, the Bao character and the Gembao stages are our own work. Gembao also uses free art, sound and music from other creators. The Credits screen in the game names them and their licences. Google Play and the Google Play logo are trademarks of Google LLC.
If you send us ideas, suggestions or feedback, you agree we may use them freely without owing you anything. We will not use your name without asking.
9. Updates and availability
We may update, change or discontinue a game or any feature at any time, including to comply with Google Play policies. Updates may be installed automatically through Google Play. We try to keep the website and games available but do not promise uninterrupted service.
10. Disclaimers
The website and games are provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent permitted by law we make no warranties, express or implied, about their accuracy, reliability, fitness for a particular purpose or freedom from bugs. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 (India) or other laws that cannot be excluded.
11. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, BlueBurp and Vivek Kumar are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential losses, lost data, lost progress or lost profits arising from your use of the website or games. Because our games are free, our total liability to you for any claim connected with them is limited to INR 1,000 (one thousand rupees). This limitation does not apply to liability that cannot be limited under law, including liability for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence.
12. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of India. Subject to any non-excludable consumer rights in your country, the courts of India have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from these terms, the website or the games. Before going to court, please write to us; most issues are fixed in one email exchange.
If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest still applies. Our not enforcing a term is not a waiver of it.
13. Changes and contact
We may revise these terms. The "last updated" date shows the current version; continued use after a change means you accept it. Questions go through the contact form. Developer: Vivek Kumar, BlueBurp Studio, India.
