Community guidelines

Short, because the multiplayer alpha deliberately has a small surface to misuse.

What is expected

  • Play the match. Deliberately throwing, blocking team-mates or feeding is not allowed.
  • No cheating, exploiting geometry, or modifying the client to gain an advantage.
  • Display names must not contain slurs, harassment, impersonation or sexual content.
  • Do not evade a ban with a new account or a private match code.

What we deliberately did not build

There is no voice chat and no free-form text chat in V1. Communication is limited to a fixed set of pings and quick messages. That is a moderation decision: a vocabulary that cannot express harassment does not need to be moderated for it.

Reporting and blocking

You can report a player from the scoreboard or your match history, and you can block any account. Reports carry the match id and server-side session data only — we never upload your microphone, screenshots or unrelated device information.

Only players who were actually in a match can report someone from it, which keeps report-bombing off the table.

Enforcement

Restrictions range from a temporary matchmaking suspension to a permanent multiplayer ban. Every action is recorded and auditable. A multiplayer ban does not remove episodes you have paid for — you keep your single-player content.
