Terms of Use

Dreadmarch Terms of Use and Personal Asset License. Last updated 13 September 2026. The same text ships inside the game.

1. About these terms

Dreadmarch is developed by Haboon ("Haboon," "we," "us," or "our"). These terms describe the permissions and restrictions for using Dreadmarch, its accompanying content, and files made available through its Sound Library and Image Library.

"Game" means Dreadmarch and its updates. "Assets" means the artwork, images, characters, animations, music, voices, sound effects, text, and other content supplied with the Game. "Library Downloads" means Assets that we expressly make available through the Game's download features.

Questions, permission requests, and reports of unauthorized distribution can be sent to hello@haboonworks.com.

These terms apply when validly incorporated into your agreement with us under applicable law. They supplement the terms of the storefront or platform through which you obtain the Game. They do not replace that platform's terms or limit rights that applicable law gives you. Separate third-party licenses take priority for the material they cover.

2. Permission to play

Subject to these terms, any applicable purchase requirements, and your storefront's license, Haboon grants you a limited, nonexclusive license to install and play an authorized copy of the Game for personal entertainment.

You may use the Game on devices and through household or family-sharing features permitted by the applicable storefront. You may make personal backups to the extent permitted by applicable law and platform terms.

Buying or downloading the Game does not transfer ownership of its intellectual property or grant permission to publish, distribute, or sell your own version of it.

3. Personal use of Library Downloads

We offer Library Downloads so you can enjoy Dreadmarch's art and audio outside the Game. For material we own or are authorized to license this way, you receive a free, nonexclusive license to download and use it for your own private, noncommercial enjoyment.

Examples of permitted personal use include:

  • Listening to downloaded music, voices, or sound effects privately, including in your personal offline music collection.
  • Using downloaded images as wallpapers or lock screens on your own devices.
  • Using audio as a personal ringtone, alarm, or notification sound.
  • Printing artwork for your own private display, without selling or distributing copies.
  • Cropping, resizing, converting, or editing files for your private enjoyment.
  • Experimenting with Assets in a private, noncommercial practice project that you do not publish, distribute, or make available to others.
  • Keeping copies on your personal devices and in private backup or cloud storage accessible only to you.

No public attribution is required for these private uses, but keep any accompanying license and rights notices with retained originals. A download is permission for these uses; it is not a transfer of ownership or a general-purpose asset license.

The private-use license for lawfully obtained Library Downloads continues if you uninstall the Game, receive a refund for the Game, or if a download feature is later removed, subject to these terms and any applicable third-party license. A refund does not require you to delete those personal downloads. There is no recurring fee for this permission. This permission does not allow you to keep playing a refunded copy of the Game contrary to the applicable storefront's terms.

4. Uses that require separate permission

Unless an applicable third-party license, the creator-content permission below, or the law independently permits the use, you must obtain written permission from the relevant rights holder before doing any of the following:

  • Releasing, uploading, distributing, licensing, or selling the Game, a copied build, or an adapted version containing protected Game code or Assets. This includes renamed, rebranded, reskinned, translated, and ported versions, whether offered free or for payment.
  • Reuploading or sharing Library Downloads as standalone files, public download links, torrents, archives, asset packs, soundboards, wallpaper packs, or similar collections.
  • Publishing downloaded tracks as standalone songs, soundtrack uploads, extended loops, or music compilations on streaming, video, or music services.
  • Incorporating Assets into another published game, application, website, template, downloadable project, advertisement, or other distributed product, even if that product is free.
  • Selling merchandise, prints, digital collectibles, or other products using protected Game artwork or branding.
  • Sublicensing Assets, selling access to them, or offering them as stock content or royalty-free resources.
  • Claiming authorship or ownership of material you did not create, removing rights notices to conceal its origin, or presenting a release as official or endorsed by Haboon without authorization.

Editing a file, changing its format, renaming the Game, or giving credit does not itself authorize these uses. Linking people to an official Game or download page is welcome; distributing your own copy of the files requires permission.

These restrictions do not claim ownership of general tower-defense mechanics, ideas, methods, or independently created content. They apply only to the extent supported by applicable law and a valid agreement, and do not override separate license rights.

5. Gameplay videos, streams, reviews, and guides

For Game content that Haboon owns or can license for this purpose, you may record, livestream, and publish your own gameplay videos, screenshots, reviews, commentary, tutorials, and guides. You may monetize that creator content through ordinary platform advertising, subscriptions, viewer donations, or sponsorships.

This permission includes Game artwork and audio as they appear in your gameplay and reasonable excerpts used to discuss or illustrate the Game. You may use relevant Game screenshots or artwork in thumbnails for that creator content. Identify the Game as Dreadmarch where practical. You may express criticism; favorable coverage is not a condition of permission.

This permission does not extend to uploading standalone Assets, providing game downloads, using the soundtrack as background music for unrelated content, or creating a substitute soundtrack or asset library. Do not imply that Haboon endorses you, your sponsors, or your channel.

Third-party content may carry separate restrictions. We cannot grant rights we do not hold or guarantee that a platform or third party will never make a claim. Your independent rights under law, including applicable quotation and fair-use rights, remain unaffected.

6. Ownership and third-party material

Haboon and the relevant third-party rights holders retain their respective rights in protected Game content. Only the permissions expressly stated here or in a separate applicable license are granted.

The Game may include third-party software, fonts, audio, artwork, and other components. Their own licenses and required notices govern those components. Nothing here limits permissions those licenses independently give you, including applicable open-source permissions. Contact us if a needed notice is missing or unclear.

Any rights reserved by Haboon extend only to rights Haboon actually holds. These terms do not create copyright in material that is ineligible for copyright protection or give Haboon exclusive ownership of public-domain material, ideas, or material owned by someone else.

7. Purchases and virtual items

Where available, optional purchases may provide diamonds or other in-game benefits. The offer shown at checkout identifies the purchase, price, and any applicable conditions. Make purchases only with authorization from the payment-account holder. Children should involve a parent or guardian.

Virtual currency and items provide permission to use the corresponding in-game features. They are not money, have no cash-redemption value offered by Haboon, and may not be sold or transferred outside features expressly provided by the Game or platform. This does not remove any refund, reimbursement, or other right provided by law or the applicable storefront.

Haboon does not offer voluntary change-of-mind refunds for the Game or optional purchases, including delivered or spent diamond packs. Disliking the Game, deciding to stop playing, making an accidental purchase, or no longer wanting an item does not create an additional refund entitlement under this policy. This restriction applies only where applicable law and storefront or payment-provider rules allow it.

Your rights under applicable law and storefront or payment-provider policies remain unaffected. Steam purchases are subject to Steam's refund rules; this policy does not override them. Payment disputes and unauthorized-transaction claims remain subject to the relevant provider's procedures. Spending diamonds, downloading content, deleting a profile, or uninstalling does not remove any mandatory right to a remedy.

If you were charged twice, did not receive your purchase, or experienced a defective or misdescribed purchase, contact support@haboonworks.com or the relevant storefront. We will investigate and provide any remedy required by applicable law or platform rules. We do not promise additional goodwill refunds or an additional refund window.

Progress and purchased benefits are associated with local profiles. Deleting a profile or losing its save data can remove local progress and benefits. Keep your purchase records and order codes private. Available restoration tools or support may help with eligible purchases, but do not provide general recovery of lost gameplay progress. Deleting a profile or uninstalling does not itself request a refund.

8. Responsible use

Do not use the Game or related payment and support services for fraud, unauthorized purchases, malicious software distribution, impersonation, or unauthorized access to another person's payment records or systems. Do not exploit payment or restoration functions to obtain benefits you are not entitled to receive.

Nothing in these terms prohibits accessibility tools, private experimentation, or reverse engineering, interoperability work, security research, or other activity to the extent independently permitted by applicable law or an applicable component license. Such activity does not itself grant permission to redistribute the Game or Assets.

There is no official mod support, modding service, or promise that modifications will work with updates. You may experiment with private, noncommercial modifications to your authorized copy, subject to these terms. Publishing or distributing a mod containing protected original Game code or Assets, or distributing a modified Game build, requires written permission unless independently authorized by law or a relevant license. Independently authored tools or patches that contain no protected Game code or Assets are not prohibited merely because they modify the Game; the restrictions on fraud, unauthorized access, and misuse still apply. We do not promise technical support for modified copies, without limiting any mandatory consumer rights.

9. Privacy and support

Our separate Dreadmarch Privacy Policy explains how the Game and associated services handle information. These terms do not authorize additional data collection or replace that policy.

When contacting support@haboonworks.com, send only information relevant to your request. Never send account passwords, complete payment-card details, or Steam authentication tickets. For a purchase issue, describe the problem and include the relevant order reference when needed.

10. Updates and availability

We may release fixes, change game balance, and update features or Library Downloads. We do not promise that every feature, online service, or download will remain available indefinitely, or that the Game will work on every device or future operating system.

Changes remain subject to applicable consumer law and any commitments made at purchase. This section does not authorize removing paid entitlements without any notice, remedy, or consent required by law. An ordinary update does not revoke compliant personal use of previously obtained Library Downloads.

11. Problems and liability

We aim to provide a working and enjoyable Game, but software may contain defects or experience interruptions. Back up local saves and personal downloads where possible.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Game and free Library Downloads are supplied as available, without additional promises beyond these terms, the applicable offer, and any express commitments we make. Mandatory guarantees of quality, fitness, conformity, and other consumer rights remain in force.

To the extent permitted by law, Haboon is not responsible for losses caused by unauthorized modifications or uses outside the purposes permitted by these terms, or for business losses resulting from such uses. Nothing excludes or limits liability for fraud, intentional misconduct, gross negligence, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. This section does not prevent remedies for a defective purchase that the law or storefront provides.

12. Breach and termination

If you materially breach these terms, Haboon may require you to stop the unauthorized activity and, where legally permitted, terminate the affected permissions. Where appropriate and legally required, we will provide notice and a reasonable opportunity to correct the breach. Serious fraud or deliberate unauthorized redistribution may justify immediate action where the law permits.

If a permission is validly terminated, stop the uses covered by that permission and remove unauthorized copies within your control. Termination does not remove rights granted independently by law or third-party licenses and does not authorize remote deletion of files from your device. Refund rights and other mandatory protections remain unaffected.

13. Changes to these terms

We will identify revisions with a date and provide any notice or consent process required by law. Changes apply prospectively to the extent legally permitted. Merely replacing a document does not establish your agreement to a material change where additional agreement is required.

Changes will not retroactively turn a previously permitted use into a breach. Existing personal-use permissions for previously obtained Library Downloads continue on their original terms unless you validly agree to different terms or those permissions are lawfully terminated for a breach.

14. Legal rights and resolving concerns

These terms do not waive mandatory consumer protections, access to courts, or any other nonwaivable legal right. They do not require private arbitration or waive class-action rights. Applicable law determines the governing law and courts with jurisdiction; no exclusive location is imposed by this document.

If a provision cannot be enforced, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law. A failure to enforce a provision on one occasion does not automatically waive it for the future.

If you have a concern, contact hello@haboonworks.com so we can try to resolve it. Contacting us first is encouraged, but is not a condition of exercising legal or storefront rights.

For permission to use Assets beyond personal enjoyment or the creator-content permission above, describe the files, proposed use, distribution method, and whether money is involved. Silence is not permission. Permission from Haboon covers only rights Haboon is authorized to grant.
