OverLit Terms of Use
Version: 3.1.1
Last updated: 2026-08-31
This Terms of Use covers every version of OverLit. Some features described here may not be present in your version of the app, may not yet be switched on for you, or may describe functionality that has not been released yet; where a feature is not available to you, the sections describing it do not apply to you until it is. Accepting this Terms of Use does not put anything into effect that the app does not actually do. Where a later version of this Terms of Use conflicts with an earlier one, the later version governs from its date onward — it does not change the terms that governed your use before then. Previous versions of this document remain publicly available in its revision history.
These Terms of Use govern your use of the OverLit app on iPhone and Android, the OverLit pages on alekjaltuszyk.xyz, support, ads, online leaderboards, and related surfaces that link to these terms.
OverLit is provided by Aleksander Jałtuszyk (“Developer”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). Country: Poland. Contact: alekgameshelp2@gmail.com. Telephone: +48 73 2099027. Mailing address: Aleksander Jałtuszyk, Skrytka Pocztowa 59, UP Warszawa 93, 02-800, Warszawa.

1. Acceptance
By using OverLit, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app or related OverLit website and support surfaces.
2. Store Terms
Your licence to use the app also runs through the store you installed it from.
- App Store. If no custom end user license agreement is provided in App Store Connect, Apple’s Standard EULA applies to the app licence.
- Google Play. The Google Play Terms of Service apply to your use of the store and to purchases made through it.
These Terms of Use govern OverLit-specific app, website, support, advertising, leaderboard, and related behavior.
3. What OverLit Is
OverLit is a short-session arcade/reflex game. A grid of cells lights up, heats toward red, and burns out; the player taps active cells before any one burns out.
Some versions of the app also offer online leaderboards, which publish a score and a randomly generated nickname on a shared board. Section 7 covers those.
The two platforms do not offer identical features. They now carry the same advertising, consent and analytics components; what differs is each platform’s own technologies — Apple’s tracking prompt and attribution on iPhone, Google’s advertising ID on Android — and the store each one purchases through. Section 3 of the OverLit Privacy Policy lists which components exist on which platform, and it is kept current. Features, visuals, copy, ad behavior, leaderboard availability, and app availability may change over time, and may change on one platform before the other.
4. Eligibility
OverLit is not directed to children under 13, and children under 13 should not use OverLit. If you are 13 or older but under the age of majority where you live, use OverLit only with parent or guardian permission where required.
In some countries the law treats everyone under 18 as a child. Where that is so, OverLit applies its more restrictive settings to every player in that country regardless of the age range they chose; section 14 of the Privacy Policy lists which countries and what changes.
5. Gameplay Safety
OverLit is a fast reflex game with flashing, color, motion, and time-pressure feedback. Stop playing if you feel uncomfortable, dizzy, strained, or otherwise unwell.
Use device accessibility settings where they are helpful for your comfort and safety.
6. Ads, Full Version, And Rewarded Unlocks
Where the app serves ads, the free experience may show Google AdMob rewarded ads, Google AdMob interstitial ads, footer banner ads, and local developer house ads for the Developer’s own apps. Rewarded ads are opt-in value trades for eligible theme unlocks or level-skip offers. Interstitial ads may appear only at safe breaks outside active gameplay, such as menu, replay, or level-advance breaks. Local developer house ads may include PlanKept and AudioChoices, and may include Voice of Self only for players treated as adults.
OverLit uses Google’s privacy messages (User Messaging Platform) where required, including European regulations messages and U.S. state privacy regulation messages. On iPhone, for players treated as adults, OverLit may show Apple’s App Tracking Transparency prompt after the legal gate is complete; if that player allows tracking, the Google advertising SDK may access the device advertising identifier for personalised advertising and advertising measurement. Players treated as minors are not shown that prompt and are configured for non-personalised ads.
The app uses Google Analytics for Firebase, on both platforms, for the small set of events listed in the Privacy Policy, and only for players treated as adults, under Google’s privacy-message and Consent Mode settings. Accepting the Terms or Privacy Policy does not itself enable analytics or advertising consent. Players treated as minors send no OverLit Firebase events.
If you decline consent or use device settings that restrict advertising technologies, ads may still be unavailable, contextual, non-personalized, limited, or replaced by local house ads according to Google, Apple, and applicable law.
Ad availability, ad loading, and rewards are not guaranteed. Rewarded unlocks may be unavailable, delayed, interrupted, or changed. Where a build serves no network ads at all, rewarded unlocks that depend on them may be unavailable on that platform.
The app may also lend a cosmetic rather than sell it. Where an item can be unlocked by watching rewarded ads, OverLit may offer to let you wear it for a small number of runs — currently three — so you can see it in play before deciding. A trial is a loan and nothing else: nothing is charged, nothing is watched to start one, and when it ends the item simply goes back and your own look returns. You may run one trial at a time across all cosmetic slots, and each item may be trialled once. Items with no ad unlock path are not lent, because there would be no way to keep them. When a trial ends the app may offer to unlock that item at its ordinary price; having trialled something does not make it cheaper, and does not oblige you to unlock it.
OverLit may offer an optional one-time non-consumable in-app purchase called Full Version. It is processed by Apple through the App Store or by Google Play Billing, depending on where you installed the app. It is not a subscription and does not require a custom OverLit account.
When active, Full Version removes normal in-app ads, unlocks ad-gated themes, and lets existing level-skip offers complete without watching an ad, subject to the app’s normal daily skip limits. Full Version does not automatically unlock progression-only rewards, arcade modes, or other non-ad content that still requires normal gameplay. Full Version does not change leaderboard eligibility, ranking, or scoring in any way.
Purchases, restorations, refunds, billing, and payment methods are handled by the store you bought from, under its own terms and policies. The app may store local entitlement state and limited transaction metadata so it can remember and restore a verified purchase. A purchase made on one platform is a purchase in that store’s account, and does not transfer to the other platform.
Ads shown in or for OverLit, including local developer house ads, should be appropriate for the age range and settings that apply to the player. If you see an inappropriate or age-inappropriate ad, contact support with a short description and any useful context.
Full Version is intended to remove normal in-app ads from OverLit while the entitlement is active. It does not remove ads, promotions, or tracking that may appear on third-party websites, app stores, external ad platforms, or other destinations you open outside OverLit.
7. Online Leaderboards
What they are
Where the feature is switched on in your version of the app, and once you have completed campaign Level 5, OverLit can publish your scores to shared online leaderboards: all-time boards per level or challenge, weekly boards, and an overall rating board.
Leaderboards are free entertainment, not a service you buy. They are provided alongside the paid Full Version, and buying Full Version gives you no leaderboard advantage.
Choosing not to take part
Settings → Legal → Post my scores to leaderboards turns publication off while you keep playing, on either platform. With it off nothing about a run is sent, and you can still read the boards. For players who chose the 13-to-17 age range it starts off.
Turning it off stops future submissions. It does not remove scores you have already published; the Privacy Policy explains how to erase those.
Your board nickname
The server assigns you a nickname built from one to three words drawn at random from fixed lists written by the developer, such as Grumpy Kraken. A dice button next to it asks for a different random name, as often as you like. You cannot type, edit, or reserve a nickname, it is not a username or an account, and it is not exclusive — another player may be given the same one.
OverLit contains no text-entry field anywhere in the app, and no part of the leaderboard service accepts a nickname sent by an app. You cannot put a name, a message, a link, or anything else of your own onto a board. Impersonation, offensive names, and advertising in a display name are therefore not possible by design rather than by moderation.
The developer may change the word lists, or the nickname attached to any entry, at any time.
What gets submitted
Qualifying runs are submitted automatically at the end of the run, and only when the score beats your own previous accepted best on that board. When leaderboards first become available after campaign Level 5, OverLit may also submit eligible personal bests already stored on your device, including genuine played progress that you later import. It sends one best per eligible board under the same rules as a live run; it does not upload your progress file or run history. Nothing is submitted while publication is switched off, and tutorial runs, your first onboarding run, abandoned runs, runs played with Developer Mode enabled, skipped levels, records created by developer tools, and scores from an obsolete scoring version are never submitted.
Exactly what is sent, what is stored, how long it is kept, and how to have it erased are set out in the OverLit Privacy Policy.
Fair play
You agree not to:
- submit a score that was not achieved by playing the game normally on a genuine, unmodified copy of OverLit
- use automation, scripts, macros, input injection, emulators, memory or clock manipulation, modified builds, rooted or jailbroken-device tooling, or any other method that produces a score the game itself did not produce
- tamper with, intercept, replay, or forge requests to the leaderboard service, or attempt to bypass its authentication, attestation, rate limits, or plausibility checks
- attempt to submit on behalf of, or interfere with, another player
- flood, scrape, or otherwise place unreasonable load on the leaderboard service
The service applies plausibility ceilings, per-player rate limits, de-duplication of retried submissions, and device attestation. A submission that fails those checks is rejected.
Removing entries and boards
We may, without notice:
- remove or correct any leaderboard entry we reasonably believe is not a genuine score, or that resulted from a bug, an exploit, or a scoring error
- reset, rebuild, archive, or retire a board — for example when a level’s scoring rules change, which retires the old board and starts a new one
- block a player identity from submitting further scores where fair play has been broken
- switch leaderboards off entirely, for everyone or for a region, temporarily or permanently
We will use these powers proportionately, but a public board only means anything if obviously false scores can be taken off it.
Availability, and what a board is not
Leaderboards may be unavailable, delayed, incomplete, or reset. Scores may fail to submit, and a failed submission may not be recoverable. Rankings are calculated on the server and are final as calculated there.
A leaderboard is not a backup. It stores a score, not your game. Your progress lives on your device, and deleting the app deletes it. Equally, deleting the app does not remove a score you have already published; erasure is covered in the Privacy Policy.
There is no prize, no money, no ranking-based reward, and no competition entry attached to any board. Nothing on a leaderboard is a contest, sweepstake, or game of chance.
8. Privacy
OverLit privacy practices are explained in the OverLit Privacy Policy. Deletion steps are summarised at Delete your OverLit data.
9. Local Progress
High scores, settings, unlocks, play counters, your age answer, your leaderboard publication choice, and legal acceptance state are stored locally on your device so the app can work normally and remember your choices. There is no cloud save and no cross-device sync.
Deleting the app may remove local app data from the device, subject to the platform’s normal backup, restore, and device behavior.
10. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- use OverLit, the website, the leaderboard service, or support channels unlawfully
- interfere with or disrupt the app, website, leaderboard service, ads, or support channels
- attempt unauthorized access to systems or services
- reverse engineer, decompile, or bypass protections except where allowed by law
- abuse support channels or send harmful, misleading, or abusive messages
- misuse rewards, ads, links, app behavior, leaderboard submissions, or local app state
11. Suspension, Termination, And Availability
OverLit has no user account, so there is usually no account to suspend. Where leaderboards are enabled, we may block a player identity from submitting scores and remove its entries, as described in section 7.
We may also stop providing, update, remove, block, or limit access to OverLit, related website surfaces, the leaderboard service, support channels, ad placements, or features where reasonably needed to operate the app, comply with law or platform rules, protect the app or its players, respond to misuse, or end support for a feature.
You may stop using OverLit at any time. Deleting the app may remove local app data from the device, subject to the platform’s normal backup, restore, purchase, and device behavior.
12. Intellectual Property
The app design, copy, branding, visuals, website, and related materials are owned by or licensed to the Developer except where otherwise stated.
You may not copy, reproduce, redistribute, or exploit those materials except as allowed by law or with permission.
13. Third-Party Services
OverLit and related surfaces may link to or rely on third-party services, including Apple, Google (AdMob, Firebase, Google Cloud, Google Play), email providers, website hosting, app store links, and external destinations.
Third-party services have their own terms and policies. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their content, availability, policies, or practices.
14. No Professional Advice
OverLit is a game. It is not legal, medical, therapeutic, financial, emergency, or other professional advice.
15. Disclaimers
To the fullest extent permitted by law, OverLit and related surfaces are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability, error-free operation, ad availability, rewards, scores, leaderboard availability, ranking accuracy, score persistence, compatibility, or fitness for a particular purpose.
16. Limitation Of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Developer will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of OverLit, the website, ads, leaderboards, support, or third-party services.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability for all claims arising out of or related to OverLit, the website, ads, rewarded unlocks, leaderboards, Full Version purchases, support, third-party services, or these Terms will be limited to the greater of:
- the amount you paid for OverLit or in-app purchases in the 12 months before the claim; or
- EUR 25
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any rights, warranties, remedies, or liabilities that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law, including mandatory consumer rights, liability for intentional misconduct, fraud, or other categories that applicable law does not allow contracts to limit.
17. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of Poland, except that this choice of law does not limit any mandatory consumer protection rights or other mandatory laws that apply where you live. If you are a consumer, you may bring claims in the courts and forums available under applicable law.
18. Severability
If any part of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts will continue to apply to the fullest extent permitted by law. The invalid or unenforceable part will be interpreted or replaced in the closest lawful way that matches its original purpose.
19. Assignment And Transfer
You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms unless applicable law gives you that right. We may transfer or assign these Terms, OverLit, or related rights and obligations in connection with operating the app, a business transfer, merger, acquisition, reorganization, asset sale, legal requirement, or similar event, as long as this does not remove mandatory rights you have under applicable law.
20. Changes To These Terms
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date and version above, and the app will ask you to accept the current documents before you continue playing.
