Using resources from sample games?

SixFootBlue · 2018-11-22T09:47:59+0900

I spent a while searching online for an answer, but couldn't really find one. Are we allowed to use resources from the sample games in our noncommercial games? I specifically want to use some sound effects from the KNight Blade sample game, and I've seen people on other sites use assets from it before, but I couldn't find any sort of terms of use regarding the game's assets.

To use third party resources you must check the creator's terms, not whether it comes from a sample game or not. If you can't find the creator of the resources, search for the credits in the sample game or ask online.

Don't determine whether it's okay based on whether other people have used them or not. They may not be as concerned as you are about doing the right thing and it would be terrible to have your game taken down because you followed their lead.

Not to mention sometimes creators get permission to use those resources for there sample games and you don’t have the proper permission to use them in yours.
