Ludixa writes about video games. Doing that means showing them: box art, screenshots, logos and the names of the games themselves. None of it belongs to us, and this page says where each piece comes from, how it is credited, and how to have something taken down.
Game titles, logos, box art and screenshots are the property of their publishers and developers. They appear here to identify and discuss the games they belong to — a catalogue entry, a release date, a news story — which is the purpose the publishers themselves distribute promotional artwork for.
The images are served from the stores' own servers. Cover art and screenshots come from the storefront that publishes the game — Nintendo eShop, Steam, Xbox and the App Store — and your browser loads them from those hosts, resized on the fly. Ludixa does not keep an archive of them.
Some covers, mostly for older or smaller games, come from Wikimedia. Where the licence requires it, the credit is on the page: images from Wikimedia Commons carry the author's name and the licence under the cover, linking to the file page and to the licence text. Those are free licences — usually Creative Commons or public domain — and naming the author is the condition they are used under, not a courtesy.
The per-game databases under /data are built from public APIs, official developer resources and community projects. Every dataset page names its source, links to it, states its licence where one is declared, and shows when it was last updated.
News stories are written here and credit the outlet they report from, with a link to the original. Where an article uses an image supplied for press use, it is credited in the same place.
If you hold the rights to an image, a piece of text or a dataset that appears on Ludixa and you want it gone, write to hello@ludixa.net. You do not need a lawyer and you do not need a form.
What makes it fast:
The usual answer is that it comes down. Requests are handled within a few days, and nothing here is worth an argument: if an image is a problem for the person who made it, there is another one or the page works without it. Where the item came from a source that credits it — a dataset, a Commons file — we will also tell you which, so you can take it up at the origin if you want to.
The same address works for the opposite request: if you are credited wrongly, or not credited at all where you should be, that is a mistake we want to fix.
It is not a claim that every use here is authorised by every rights holder, and it is not a legal notice. It is a description of where things come from and a working address to reach a person about them.
