Tester agreement

Beta Test Agreement v2, 10 October 2026. This is the full text of what the gate asks you to sign. The gate shows a summary; this page is the agreement itself, and it can be read, saved or printed before signing.

This text is in force as written while it is under review by counsel. If it changes, the date at the top changes with it. Testers who signed v1 are asked to sign this version once; nothing about you leaves your device.

Plain summary (not a substitute for the agreement below)

  • You get a private, unfinished copy of Nobodyssey, Book One, to play and tell us about. It stays ours.
  • Until Book One is released, keep it to yourself: no sharing the link, no streaming, recording, screenshots or posts about what is inside. The one thing you may share is the official trailer on the Book One page, unchanged.
  • Don't copy, download, pull apart or reuse any of it. Play it in your browser, that's all.
  • What you tell us (bugs, ideas, notes) we may use freely, without paying you or naming you.
  • It is a test build: it may break, change or vanish. We give no promises about it.
  • If you break the rules we can go to court to stop it and to recover our losses and legal costs.
  • You must be 13 or older. If you are under 18, a parent or guardian must read this and agree too.
  • New York law applies. Your signature is sent to us as our record; nothing else about you leaves your device unless you email us.

1. Who this agreement is between

This agreement is between AZTMM HLDGS LLC, a limited liability company ("AZTMM", "we", "us"), and the person who signs it at the gate ("you"). If you are under 18, it is also between AZTMM and the parent or legal guardian who consents for you (section 11).

2. Definitions

3. Confidentiality

3.1 Your promise. Until the relevant part of the game reaches Public Release, you will keep Confidential Information confidential. In particular you will not:

You may say that you are a Nobodyssey tester, and you may share the Trailer exactly as AZTMM published it.

3.2 What is not confidential. Information is not Confidential Information if you can show that it (a) is or becomes public through no breach by you or anyone you told, including through AZTMM's own announcements, trailers or the Public Release; (b) was already known to you without a duty of confidence before AZTMM gave it to you; (c) comes to you lawfully from someone else who owed no duty of confidence; or (d) you developed independently without using the Build. Homer's Odyssey itself, and anything in it, is never AZTMM's Confidential Information.

3.3 When the law requires it. If a court, government agency or law requires you to disclose Confidential Information, you may do so to the extent required, and you will tell AZTMM first (at the email in section 15) if the law allows, so that AZTMM can seek protection.

3.4 Reporting to authorities. Nothing in this agreement stops you from reporting a possible violation of law to a government agency or from making disclosures protected by law. Under the US Defend Trade Secrets Act (18 U.S.C. § 1833(b)), you will not be held liable under any federal or state trade secret law for disclosing a trade secret in confidence to a government official or to an attorney solely to report or investigate a suspected violation of law, or in a sealed court filing.

3.5 If something leaks. If you learn that the link or any part of the Build has got out through you or your device, tell AZTMM promptly and help us stop it.

4. Your licence to play

4.1 Grant. Subject to this agreement, AZTMM gives you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable, free licence to use the Build for Personal Use for the purpose of testing it and giving Feedback, until this agreement ends.

4.2 What you may not do. You will not, and will not help anyone else to:

4.3 The Trailer. You may share, post and embed the Trailer, unedited, with a link to aztmm.com. You may not cut it, remix it, add to it, or present it as your own or as an endorsement by you that AZTMM paid for (see section 7.3).

5. Ownership

The Build, the game, and all intellectual property rights in them (copyrights, trademarks including NOBODYSSEY and AZTMM, trade secrets and everything else) belong to AZTMM or its licensors. This agreement gives you only the licence in section 4. AZTMM reserves every right it does not expressly grant. Nothing in this agreement transfers any rights in Homer's Odyssey or any public-domain material to anyone.

6. Feedback

6.1 Licence. You grant AZTMM a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid, transferable and sublicensable licence to use, copy, modify, adapt, publish, distribute, display, perform, make derivative works of and otherwise exploit your Feedback in any way and in any medium, in the game or elsewhere, without notice to you.

6.2 Waiver. You waive, and agree not to assert against AZTMM, its licensees or its successors, any claim (including any claim for payment, credit, attribution or under moral rights, to the extent you may lawfully waive it) that arises from AZTMM's use of Feedback, or that any part of the game, now or later, was taken from or is similar to your Feedback or to any idea you share. You understand that AZTMM is developing the game on its own and may already have, or later develop, ideas like yours.

6.3 Your promises about Feedback. Your Feedback is your own or you have the right to give it, and it contains no one else's confidential information and nothing unlawful. Please don't send us anything you want to keep, sell or own.

6.4 No obligation. AZTMM need not use, review, credit or answer any Feedback. AZTMM may, if it chooses, thank testers in the credits, by name only with your separate consent.

7. Your conduct

7.1 Use the Build lawfully and do not use it to harass anyone.

7.2 Keep any device you use to play reasonably secure, so others cannot reach the Build through it.

7.3 Posts and endorsements. If AZTMM ever invites you to post about the game, or gives you anything of value (early access, credits, merchandise, a free copy of a paid product), any post you make must clearly disclose that connection (for example, "I'm a Nobodyssey beta tester") as the US Federal Trade Commission's endorsement guidance requires. AZTMM will never ask you for a positive review, and will never condition anything on one.

8. Term, ending and survival

8.1 Term. This agreement starts when you sign it at the gate and lasts until the earlier of (a) Public Release of Book One, and (b) the date either of us ends it. You may end it at any time by stopping play and clearing the site's data in your browser. AZTMM may end it, or your access, at any time for any reason, including by withdrawing the Build or changing the link.

8.2 On ending. Your licence ends. Stop using the Build and clear the site's data from every browser where you played (the Privacy page explains how).

8.3 Survival. Sections 3 (for any Confidential Information that has not reached Public Release, until it does), 4.2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 14 and 15 survive the end of this agreement. The release of Book One ends your confidentiality duty for Book One only; it continues for any later Book, chapter, feature or plan you saw that has not been released.

9. Remedies

9.1 Injunction. You agree that a breach of section 3 or 4 would cause AZTMM irreparable harm that money alone may not repair, and that AZTMM may ask any court of competent jurisdiction for an injunction or other equitable relief to stop or prevent it, in addition to any other remedy, without having to prove actual damages and, to the extent the law allows, without posting a bond.

9.2 Damages. AZTMM may also recover the damages the breach caused.

9.3 Legal fees. In any action to enforce this agreement, the prevailing party may recover its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs from the other.

10. No warranty; limit of liability

10.1 As is. The Build is a test build, unfinished and possibly faulty. It is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE", with no warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, accuracy, or that it will work, keep your saves or stay available. Some places do not allow some of these exclusions, so some may not apply to you.

10.2 Limit. To the fullest extent the law allows, AZTMM will not be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost data or saves, arising from the Build or this agreement, and AZTMM's total liability to you for all claims together is limited to US$50.

10.3 What the limit does not cover. Nothing in this agreement limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence where that rule applies. Section 10.2 does not limit what you owe AZTMM for a deliberate or reckless breach of section 3 or 4.

11. Age and parents' consent

11.1 You must be 13 or older to be a tester. The game is made for players 13 and up.

11.2 If you are 13 to 17, a parent or legal guardian must read this agreement and consent at the gate by entering their own full name. By doing so the parent or guardian (a) agrees to this agreement on the tester's behalf and on their own behalf, (b) agrees to supervise the tester's compliance, and (c) agrees to be responsible for any breach by the tester, as if they had committed it.

11.3 If AZTMM learns that a tester is under 13, or under 18 without a parent's consent, AZTMM may end that tester's access at once.

12. Privacy

The Build runs in your browser and sends nothing about your play to AZTMM: no account, no analytics, no tracking. Your saved game and your settings are stored only in your browser's local storage on that device. Your signature record (the name or names you type, the time, your choice of age bracket, the version you signed, a receipt code and a short description of your browser) is kept on that device and is also sent once to AZTMM, together with the internet address and country it came from, as AZTMM's record that you agreed; AZTMM keeps it for as long as this agreement can matter and uses it for nothing else. The game's Privacy Policy (aztmm.com/privacy/) describes this in full. If you email us, we keep that email to act on it, and we do not share it.

13. Signing electronically; our record

13.1 Electronic signature. You agree that typing your full name, ticking the box and pressing Sign and continue is your electronic signature, has the same effect as signing a paper copy by hand, and that this agreement may be formed electronically, under the US Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (15 U.S.C. § 7001 et seq.) and New York's Electronic Signatures and Records Act (N.Y. State Technology Law §§ 301-309).

13.2 You saw it before signing. You agree that the full agreement was shown to you, or linked from the gate where it says "Read the full agreement", before you signed; that you had the chance to read it, save it or print it; and that the version you signed is the one named at the bottom of the gate.

13.3 The receipt and our record. The gate shows you a receipt code made from your names, your age bracket, the time and the version, and sends your signature record to AZTMM (section 12). AZTMM may also keep a record of which testers it invited, when, and at which email address. You agree that the receipt, AZTMM's signature record and its invitation record are evidence of your agreement. If the record could not be sent when you signed (for example, with no signal), the gate sends it the next time you open the game.

13.4 New versions. If AZTMM changes this agreement, the gate will ask you to sign the new version before you can keep playing. A new version applies only from the time you sign it.

14. Governing law and courts

14.1 This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

14.2 Any dispute will be brought only in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York, and both of us consent to their jurisdiction. Either of us may instead bring an individual claim in a small claims court where it qualifies, and AZTMM may seek an injunction under section 9.1 in any court that has jurisdiction.

14.3 If you live in a country whose law gives you rights that a choice of law or court cannot take away, you keep those rights.

15. General
