This End User License Agreement ("EULA") governs your use of the scripts, prims, mesh, sounds, textures, marketing materials, and media files, along with the Krabbie Crabbies game application, software, associated upgrades, patches, and updates, and related services (collectively referred to as the "Game"), provided by the creator of Krabbie Crabbies ("Creator").
Acceptance

By rezzing, purchasing, using, breeding, or otherwise interacting with any Krabbie Crabbies item, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this EULA. If you do not agree with these terms, you must not use the Game.

Beta Program Terms

If you are participating in the Krabbie Crabbies Beta Program, the following additional terms apply and supersede any conflicting terms in this EULA for the duration of the beta period.

⚠ Beta Participants

The Game is currently in a pre-release beta state. Features, mechanics, traits, and game systems are subject to change, removal, or significant alteration at any time without notice.

Data Resets

Game data including but not limited to crab traits, bond status, lineage records, egg counts, and health status may be reset, wiped, or altered during the beta period. The Creator is not liable for any loss of progress, items, or in-game status resulting from a beta reset.

Beta Item Expiration

All items issued as part of a Beta Package are temporary and issued solely for testing purposes. On or around March 30, 2026, all beta-issued items will be automatically invalidated and deleted by the game servers. Beta items confer no permanent license and cannot be retained, transferred, or carried forward into the live game. No compensation will be issued for the expiration of beta items.

Bug Reporting Obligation

Beta participants are expected to report bugs, errors, and unintended behavior to the Creator promptly upon discovery. Exploiting known bugs rather than reporting them is a violation of this EULA and grounds for immediate removal from the beta program and permanent ban from the live game.

No Compensation

Participation in the beta program is voluntary. No compensation, refund, or exchange will be issued for any loss, disruption, or change to game data or items during the beta period, including as a result of bugs, server errors, or scheduled resets.

Authentic Items & Registration

Definitions

"Registered Copy" means any Krabbie Crabbies manufactured item including potions (such as Sea Swap and Comfort Salts), Chow, Crab Homes, and Nests that are issued by the Creator (or an authorized vendor) and eligible for game server interaction.

"Authentic Crabs & Eggs" means living game entities including crabs, Starter Eggs, and Nest Eggs that were generated and recorded by the game servers through normal gameplay or official vendor delivery. This includes all crab types: standard crabs, Special Edition (SE) crabs, and Limited Edition (LE) crabs.

Any duplicate, cloned, or otherwise unrecorded item or crab is counterfeit and not licensed for use.

Condition of License

Your license to use Krabbie Crabbies items applies only to Registered Copies and Authentic Crabs & Eggs. Use of counterfeit or unregistered items is a breach of this EULA.

Ownership

All title, ownership rights, and intellectual property rights in and to the Game (including, without limitation, all scripts, 3D mesh, textures, text, graphics, sounds, trait systems, breeding mechanics, bonding mechanics, names, themes, objects, slogans, diagrams, concepts, domain names, and any other elements which are part of the Game, individually or in combination) and any copies thereof are owned exclusively by the Creator. Any reproduction or representation of these materials in any way and for any reason is prohibited without prior written permission of the Creator.

This EULA confers no title or ownership in the Game and should not be construed as a sale of any rights. Except as expressly set forth herein, all rights not granted to you are expressly reserved by the Creator.

Data Management

As part of maintaining a secure and functional game environment, the Creator implements the following data practices:

  1. Anti-Fraud Telemetry: You consent to the collection of limited anti-fraud telemetry related to Krabbie Crabbies items (e.g., object UUIDs, owner IDs, version numbers, server timestamps, and server signatures) solely to verify authenticity, investigate fraud, and enforce this EULA.
  2. Server-Side Data: The Game stores crab traits, breeding history, lineage records, bond status, health status, retirement status, and ownership data on Creator-operated servers. This data is used solely to operate the Game.
  3. No Sale of Data: Your personal data will not be sold, traded, or provided to third parties for marketing or commercial purposes.
Rights & Limitations

Limitations

You must not remove or alter any Krabbie Crabbies copyright notices, trademarks, or branding from any item.

Use of Krabbie Crabbies elements or any part thereof as part of a trademark, trade name, service mark, or logo outside of the official Game designation is strictly prohibited.

All Krabbie Crabbies items issued through officially designated vendors within the Second Life platform shall be considered Registered Copies. You may resell Registered Copies and Authentic Crabs & Eggs to third parties via secondary markets within the Second Life platform, provided they abide by this EULA.

Incorporation of Krabbie Crabbies game elements into design applications for resale — including textures, background images, template items, or any use resulting in redistribution of Game assets — is strictly prohibited.

You must comply with all applicable laws and with the Second Life Terms of Service and Community Standards regarding your use of the Game.

Restrictions

  1. You shall not modify, reverse-engineer, disassemble, or decompile the Game or any part thereof.
  2. You shall not manipulate, exploit, or otherwise use discovered vulnerabilities — whether in Krabbie Crabbies products, the Second Life viewer, or the Second Life platform itself — to circumvent game mechanics.
  3. You shall not use the Game for any illegal, unauthorized, or inappropriate purposes.
  4. You are prohibited from using the Game on any platform other than Second Life.

Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to:

  • Duplicate, clone, spoof, or attempt to reproduce any Krabbie Crabbies item or crab;
  • Use, sell, list, or transfer any counterfeit or unregistered item or crab;
  • Exploit bugs, deprecated content, or security gaps to obtain items, traits, bonds, or in-game advantages;
  • Use alternate accounts to disguise prohibited conduct or evade enforcement.
Enforcement

The Creator may, in their sole but good-faith discretion: suspend or ban accounts (including linked alts); invalidate or seize counterfeit or fraudulently obtained items; void in-game gains obtained through prohibited conduct. Grounds may include inventories inconsistent with server records, refusal to provide verification of purchase, or patterns consistent with item duplication. Decisions are final. The Creator is not obligated to provide refunds for enforcement actions related to prohibited conduct.

Verification Requests

The Creator may request reasonable information to verify an item, including transaction details, vendor name, and time of purchase. For beta participants, proof of beta program enrollment may be provided in lieu of purchase records. Failure to provide verification may result in enforcement action. All beta-issued items are temporary and no beta participant may claim permanent entitlement to any item received through a Beta Package.

Graphic Use & Intellectual Property

All graphics, textures, and logos used in the Game are protected under applicable copyright law and the Second Life Terms of Service. Unauthorized use, reproduction, or distribution of these assets is strictly prohibited.

Permissible

  • Taking screenshots of your Krabbie Crabbies crabs and items as they appear in-world.
  • Using Krabbie Crabbies items in personal or promotional screenshots shared in community spaces.

Prohibited

  • Extracting, copying, or redistributing unwrapped textures or mesh.
  • Purchasing or using stolen Krabbie Crabbies assets.
  • Selling or distributing (even for free) any Krabbie Crabbies textures, logos, or graphics.
Alternate Account Policy

Permitted Uses

  • Purchasing items from the Krabbie Crabbies mainstore or marketplace.
  • General gameplay, including breeding and item ownership.

Prohibited Uses

  • Using alts to participate in giveaways, contests, hunts, or limited-event distributions. These are one-per-human-participant.
  • Using alts to circumvent bans or enforcement actions.
  • Using alts to artificially inflate breeding lineage values or disrupt secondary markets.

Disclosure

Players must disclose alternate accounts upon request by the Creator. Failure to do so, where alts are being used for prohibited purposes, may result in bans across all related accounts.

Versioning & Deprecation

The Creator may deprecate vulnerable or outdated game items and disable server support for them following a posted grace period. Using deprecated items after the grace period is a breach of this EULA. The Creator reserves the right to enforce without further notice.

Game Mechanics & Special Item Terms

The following in-game mechanics and item types are subject to these additional terms:

Breeding & Bonding

Crabs may form a Bond with a partner crab, indicated in-world by the "Bonded to" status and Bond percentage. Bond accumulation, Cooldown timers, and breeding outcomes are governed entirely by game mechanics. The Creator makes no guarantee of any specific bonding or breeding outcome.

Elder Crabs

A crab that has reached its egg-laying limit is considered Elder and can no longer breed. Elder is a permanent server-side status and cannot be reversed through any means, including potions or support requests.

Forever Pearl & Forever Crabs

Applying a Forever Pearl to a crab permanently designates it as a Forever Pet on the game servers. This status is irreversible. Certain gameplay options, including but not limited to Sea Swap, are unavailable to Forever Pets. No refund or reversal will be issued once a Forever Pearl has been applied.

Special Edition (SE) & Limited Edition (LE) Crabs

Special Edition crabs are sold directly through official vendors as eggs. Limited Edition crabs are obtainable through in-game breeding during designated events. Trait inheritance for SE and LE crabs follows probabilistic game mechanics. No specific trait outcome is guaranteed.

Community Conduct

As a participant in the Krabbie Crabbies community, you are required to maintain respectful conduct across all community spaces, including in-world groups and Discord. The following are strictly prohibited:

  • Defamation or spreading false information about Krabbie Crabbies or its community.
  • Harassing, griefing, or abusing other players or the Creator.
  • Manipulating or causing disruptions in secondary markets.
  • Sending mass or unsolicited messages to group members for advertising or other purposes.

Violations may result in suspension or permanent ban from some or all Krabbie Crabbies platforms, communities, and in-world groups.

Patreon & Subscription Services

Certain Krabbie Crabbies features and items are available through Patreon subscription tiers. Participation in Patreon is governed by Patreon's own Terms of Service in addition to this EULA. Patreon-exclusive items and benefits are limited to one human subscriber per tier unless otherwise stated. The Creator reserves the right to modify, replace, or discontinue any Patreon tier or benefit at any time.

Secondary Market Sales

The Creator is not responsible for any perceived gains or losses arising from secondary market transactions. Players engage in player-to-player trading and selling at their own risk. The Creator does not govern transactions between players, except where they conflict with rules outlined in this EULA.

Krabbie Crabbies is sold and promoted as a game. Any secondary market activity is ancillary to its primary purpose as entertainment.

Third-Party Services & Continuity

The Game depends on third-party services including, but not limited to, Second Life, Heroku, Cloudflare, and PostgreSQL. The Creator does not guarantee uninterrupted service and is not liable for outages, data loss, or gameplay disruption caused by third-party service failures. The Creator reserves the right to migrate, modify, or discontinue any back-end service at any time.

Termination

This EULA is effective until terminated. You may terminate by ceasing all use of the Game and deleting all copies in your possession. The Creator may terminate your license if you fail to comply with any term herein. Upon termination, you must cease all use of the Game.

Limitation of Liability
No Warranties; All Sales Final
Governing Law

This EULA shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Creator is located, as determined by the Creator, excluding its conflict of law provisions. Any legal action or proceeding arising under this EULA will be brought exclusively in the courts located in that jurisdiction, and the parties hereby consent to personal jurisdiction and venue therein.

Severability

If any provision of this EULA is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, and the invalid provision will be deemed modified to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.

Entire Agreement

This EULA constitutes the entire agreement between you and the Creator regarding use of the Game and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings, communications, or agreements, written or oral, regarding the subject matter herein.
