Dark Physics - licence
======================

Dark Physics is a point-and-click story game by mit-mit, made for PyWeek 36 (March 2023, theme "Dark Matter"). This
site serves the original entry from the PyWeek archive:

  https://s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/media.pyweek.org/36/mit-mit-36/dark_physics_pyweek36_v1.zip

  (entry page: https://pyweek.org/e/mit-mit-36/; retrieved 2026-11-04)

The licence sentence in the README of that zip reads, exactly:

  "Licence: All of the artwork and code for this game (excepting those listed below) is CC0 (free to use in whatever
  manner you see fit, attribution not required)"

The README also says "Game Design/Programming/Artwork/Voice: mit-mit (made during the competition)" and "No AI was
harmed (or used) in the production of this game". The exceptions it lists, reproduced in the README below, are two
music tracks under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), used unchanged:
"Theremin" by rap2h (https://freesound.org/people/rap2h/sounds/151312/) and "Escape Velocity" by Scott Buckley
(https://www.scottbuckley.com.au/library/escape-velocity/); and five CC0 sounds from freesound.org.

What this site serves: the dark-physics.pgapp built by Builds/build-dark-physics.sh from that zip, with the change
published as web.patch next to the source: the main loop became asynchronous (a pygbag requirement), Esc on the title
screen does nothing, and the game's main.py became src/dp_main.py. The game saves nothing. No artwork, sound, voice or
music was altered.

The game runs on pygame-ce (LGPL-2.1) and CPython 3.12 compiled by the pygbag project; their licences and source are
on the site's Licenses page.
