About GameDev Toolbox
GameDev Toolbox is a small collection of free, browser-based tools for indie game developers. It starts with one tool, the RPG Stat & Balance Generator, and will grow one useful tool at a time.
Who it is for
Solo developers and small teams who need quick, dependable answers while designing a game: how a character's stats grow, whether enemies keep up, and what the numbers look like at the level cap. The tools aim to be simple to pick up and precise enough to use in real projects.
Privacy
- Calculations happen locally. Every tool runs in your browser with JavaScript. The values you enter are never uploaded, sent to a server or shared.
- No accounts or analytics. There is no sign-in and no analytics script, and the site itself sets no cookies.
- Ads are kept apart from your data. Pages show one small banner from the ad network Adsterra. It loads inside a sandboxed frame that cannot read the page, the values you enter or this site's storage, and cannot redirect the page. Adsterra may use cookies or similar technology to choose and count the ads it shows; see Adsterra's privacy policy.
- Exports stay on your device. Copied text goes to your clipboard, and CSV or JSON downloads are created in your browser and saved straight to your computer.
- One local setting. If you switch between light and dark themes, that choice is saved in your browser's local storage so the site remembers it. It never leaves your device.
- Hosting. The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes the basic information needed to deliver the pages to you, such as your IP address.
The pages also send a Content Security Policy that tells your browser to block any connection they try to make, so tool data could not be sent anywhere even by mistake. Only the isolated ad frame can load content from the ad network.
