Ludic Kitchen — Master Terms of Use
Issued by: Good Chaos Lifestyle Pvt. Ltd. (“Ludic”, “we”, “us”)
These Master Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern participation in Ludic Kitchen, a limited-time, community-powered creation model operated by Ludic. By registering, contributing, or otherwise participating in any Ludic Kitchen campaign, you (“Contributor”, “you”) confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these Terms, along with all policies referenced herein.
1. Introduction & Overview
Ludic Kitchen is a limited-time, community-powered creation initiative operated by Good Chaos Lifestyle Pvt. Ltd. ("Ludic", "we", "us"). Each Ludic Kitchen campaign invites contributors to participate in the early creation of select Ludic products through advance consumer payments.
By accessing, registering for, or contributing to any Ludic Kitchen campaign, you acknowledge that you are entering into a legally binding agreement governed by these Master Terms of Use ("Terms"). Your participation confirms your acceptance of these Terms, along with all policies referenced herein, including but not limited to the Refund Policy, Credit Policy, Privacy Policy, and Intellectual Property Policy.
These Terms apply uniformly to all Ludic Kitchen campaigns unless expressly stated otherwise in a campaign-specific addendum.
2. Nature of the Ludic Kitchen Model
2.1 Consumer Prepayment Model
Ludic Kitchen operates strictly as a consumer prepayment and pre-order model. All contributions made by participants represent advance payments toward future Ludic products, services, or store credits.
- Contributions are not investments, securities, donations, or deposits.
- Contributors do not acquire any equity, ownership interest, profit participation, revenue share, or financial return of any kind.
- No contribution creates a partnership, joint venture, fiduciary relationship, or agency relationship between the Contributor and Ludic.
Participation in Ludic Kitchen grants access to a collaborative creation experience and the receipt of products, perks, or Ludic Credits as described for each campaign, and nothing more.
2.2 Ownership Without Equity
While Ludic Kitchen is designed to be collaborative and participatory in spirit, all legal ownership remains clearly defined:
- Ludic retains sole ownership of all products, designs, tooling, processes, intellectual property, and commercial outcomes arising from any Ludic Kitchen campaign.
- Contributor participation, feedback, voting, or creative input does not confer ownership, authorship, co-inventorship, or royalty rights.
- Any recognition or attribution provided to Contributors is symbolic and non-binding, intended solely for community acknowledgment.
2.3 Emotional Participation vs Legal Rights
Ludic Kitchen emphasizes emotional participation and creative inclusion; however:
- Emotional involvement, collaboration, or recognition does not create enforceable legal rights beyond those expressly stated in these Terms.
- Contributors acknowledge that creative processes are iterative and outcomes may evolve during development.
- Ludic retains final and exclusive decision-making authority over all creative, production, and commercial matters.
2.4 Classification Under Applicable Law
For the avoidance of doubt and in accordance with applicable Indian law:
- Contributors are classified as consumers, not investors.
- Contributions are treated as advance payments or store credit consideration under taxation laws.
- Ludic Credits constitute closed-loop store credit instruments, usable only within Ludic’s ecosystem and not redeemable for cash.
These Terms are drafted to comply with the Consumer Protection Act, 2019; the Information Technology Act, 2000; applicable GST regulations; and RBI guidelines governing closed-loop prepaid instruments.

4. Eligibility, Accounts & Seat Logic
4.1 Eligibility to Participate
Participation in Ludic Kitchen is subject to the following conditions:
- Participation is open only to individuals who are eighteen (18) years of age or older at the time of contribution.
- Contributors must have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement under applicable Indian law.
- Participation may be restricted or unavailable in certain geographies due to shipping limitations, regulatory requirements, or operational constraints. Any such restrictions will be clearly disclosed on the relevant Campaign page.
- Ludic reserves the right to restrict, suspend, or refuse participation where required for legal, regulatory, risk, or platform integrity reasons.
4.2 Account Registration & Responsibility
- Participation in any Ludic Kitchen Campaign requires the creation of a registered user account on Ludic’s official platform.
- Each Contributor may maintain one registered account, identified by a unique email address.
- Contributors are solely responsible for ensuring that all account information, including name, contact details, shipping address, and sizing information, is accurate, complete, and current.
- Ludic shall not be liable for delays, fulfillment errors, failed deliveries, or loss arising from inaccurate or outdated information provided by the Contributor.
4.3 Seat-Based Participation Model
- Each Ludic Kitchen Campaign operates on a seat-based participation system.
- A Seat represents one confirmed participation slot in a Campaign and is allocated upon successful completion of a Contribution.
- One Seat is permitted per registered account.
- Seats are personal to the registered account holder and are non-transferable, non-assignable, and may not be resold, gifted, exchanged, or otherwise transferred after allocation.
4.4 Tier Structure & Seat Availability
- Seats are distributed across predefined participation tiers, each associated with specific access, benefits, and pricing.
- Seat capacity per tier is determined internally by Ludic based on production planning, campaign design, and operational considerations.
- Numerical seat limits are not publicly disclosed.
- Contributors may view live indicators such as progress bars, availability notices, or backer counts to understand Campaign momentum and tier fill status.
- Once a tier reaches its internal capacity, it may automatically close without prior notice.
4.5 Tier Closure Logic & Campaign Continuity
- Tier closures occur independently and do not signal Campaign closure.
- Closure of a lower tier does not affect the availability of higher tiers.
- Achievement of the Community Target or Activation does not result in early Campaign closure.
Post-Activation Continuity
- Upon Campaign Activation:
- Production planning and execution may begin.
- The Campaign continues for its full, predefined duration, without interruption.
- Tier 2 (Sous Chef) and Tier 3 (Head Chef) remain available for participation for the remainder of the Campaign duration, subject to internal seat availability.
Campaign Close Conditions
- A Campaign closes only when the defined Campaign duration ends.
- This continuity framework ensures sustained participation, momentum, and equitable access throughout the Campaign lifecycle.
4.6 Duplicate, Suspicious & Prohibited Activity
Ludic reserves the right to investigate and take corrective action in cases involving:
- Multiple accounts created by the same individual to bypass seat limits
- Use of bots, scripts, automated tools, or coordinated activity

Such action may include, without limitation:
- Cancellation or invalidation of affected Seats

- Restriction or permanent removal from future Ludic Kitchen participation
4.7 Right to Refuse, Suspend, or Remove Participation
- Ludic reserves the right to refuse, suspend, or terminate participation in any Campaign where a Contributor violates these Terms, applicable policies, or applicable law.
- Removal or suspension due to misconduct does not automatically entitle the Contributor to a refund, except where mandated by law.
5. Contribution, Payment & Lock-In Rules
5.1 Nature of Contributions

Duration Integrity Principle
- A Campaign does not close early due to:

This principle ensures equal opportunity for participation, sustained momentum, and transparency across the Campaign lifecycle.

- Activation may occur at any point during the Campaign once the activation threshold is met.
- Upon Activation:

- Rewards, perks, access, and benefits remain identical to standard pricing tiers.
- The Early Bird Period is:
- Time-bound, not quantity-bound

Ludic Kitchen — Campaign Terms
Project 01: Ludic Clogs
Issued by: Good Chaos Lifestyle Pvt. Ltd. (“Ludic”)
1. Introduction & Scope
These Campaign Terms describe the specific rules, mechanics, timelines, and participation details for Ludic Kitchen — Project 01: Ludic Clogs (the “Campaign”).
While Ludic Kitchen operates on a shared philosophy of transparency and co-creation, each project may have its own structure, duration, tiers, perks, and timelines. This document exists to clearly explain how this particular Campaign works.
It covers details such as:
- campaign duration and milestones
- tier structure and seat allocation
- contribution mechanics
- activation rules
- production and fulfillment timelines
- perks and rewards included in each tier
These Campaign Terms apply in addition to the following documents:
- Master Terms of Use
- Refund Policy
- Credit Policy
- Privacy Policy
By participating in this Campaign, you agree to be bound by all of the above.
If there is any conflict between these Campaign Terms and the Master Terms, these Campaign Terms will apply only to the extent of the specific Campaign mechanics described here. All other legal rights and obligations remain governed by the Master Terms & Policies.
2. About Ludic Kitchen
Ludic Kitchen is Ludic’s community-powered way of creating products.
Instead of developing products behind closed doors and launching them fully finished, we open up the process and invite our community to take part early — from idea to production.
Each Kitchen project follows a simple flow:
- We introduce a product concept
- The community backs it by choosing a tier and contributing
- Design and development happen transparently
- Once the minimum goal is reached, production begins
- Contributors receive the product and any included perks or Ludic Credit
Your contribution is not an investment or donation.
It is an advance purchase that helps bring the product to life.
If a project reaches its activation threshold, we proceed with production and fulfillment.
If it does not, contributions are refunded as described in the Refund Policy.
In short, Ludic Kitchen is built to be:
- collaborative
- transparent
- low-risk
- and community-led
You don’t just buy the final product — you help make it happen

- All timelines are estimates and may vary due to production or operational factors.
4. Tier Structure & Seat Allocation
Participation in Ludic Kitchen happens through a seat-based system.
Each contribution secures one “Seat” in the Campaign and determines your tier, benefits, and level of involvement.
4.1 What is a Seat?
A Seat represents:
- one confirmed participation in the Campaign
- one selected tier
- one set of associated products, perks, and benefits
Your Seat is secured once your contribution payment is successfully completed.
4.2 How Seats Are Allocated
Seats are:
- allocated on a first-come, first-served basis
- confirmed only after successful payment
Adding a tier to your cart or beginning checkout does not reserve a Seat.
Your participation is confirmed only after payment is completed.
4.3 One Seat Per Account
Each registered account may hold one Seat per tier purchase.
Seats are linked to the contributing account and cannot be shared across multiple accounts.
4.4 Non-Transferability
Seats are:
- non-transferable
- non-assignable
- cannot be resold, gifted, or exchanged
This ensures fairness and protects campaign planning and fulfillment accuracy.
4.5 Tier Availability & Closures
Each tier has limited availability.
When a tier reaches capacity:
- that tier may close automatically
- other tiers may remain open
Closure of a tier does not mean the Campaign has ended.
4.6 Campaign Duration Integrity
The Campaign runs for the full 60-day duration.
The Campaign does not close early due to:
- reaching the Community Target
- achieving Activation
- early success or overfunding
Contributions may continue until the official Campaign Close date, subject to seat availability.
4.7 Tier Changes
Once a contribution is completed:
- Tiers may be upgraded, subject to availability and applicable additional charges.
- Tier downgrades are not permitted.
This lock-in is necessary to maintain production planning and fairness for all participants.
5. Contributions & What You Receive
To participate in this Campaign, you select a tier and complete the corresponding payment.
Your contribution is treated as an advance purchase that helps fund the creation and production of the Ludic Kitchen Product.
Once payment is successful:
- your Seat in the Campaign is confirmed
- your selected tier is locked
- you become eligible to receive the product and the perks assigned to that tier
Contributions are not investments or ownership in Ludic and do not provide financial returns or profit-sharing.
Specific perks are described in the Perk Definitions section below, with a complete tier-wise breakdown in the Tier Benefits Overview.
6. Perks & Rewards (Project 01)
The following perks apply to Project 01: Ludic Clogs.
Availability varies by tier (Taster, Sous Chef, Head Chef) as indicated in the Tier Benefits Overview.
Each perk is explained below for clarity.
1. Ludic Clogs
The final production version of the product created through Project 01.
Delivered after the Campaign concludes and production is complete.
The product reflects the final outcome of the community-backed development process.
Minor changes from early visuals, prototypes, or concept images may occur due to manufacturing feasibility, material sourcing, or quality refinement.

A small printed insert included with your Project 01 delivery that documents the story behind the product.
The Recipe Card typically includes:

- A Lot More – the highest quantity and variety of inserts available in this Campaign

8. Activation & Production Framework
Project 01 follows a community-backed activation model.
This means production begins only if the Campaign reaches the required funding threshold.
8.1 Funding Structure
The funding structure for Project 01 is as follows:
- Total Project Cost: ₹75,00,000
- Ludic Contribution (Brand Pledge): ₹15,00,000
- Community Target: ₹60,00,000
The Community Target represents the amount required from contributors to activate production.
8.2 Activation Threshold
The Campaign is considered Activated once 75% of the Community Target is reached.
For Project 01:
- 75% of ₹60,00,000 = ₹45,00,000
Once this threshold is met:
- The project is approved for production
- Manufacturing and sourcing processes begin
- Contributors remain eligible for all selected perks
Activation does not end the Campaign.
The Campaign continues for the full 60-day duration.
8.3 Brand Top-Up Window (70–74%)
If the Campaign reaches between 70% and 74% of the Community Target, Ludic may, at its sole discretion, choose to top up the remaining amount to activate the project.
This decision is based on:
- operational feasibility
- production viability
- strategic considerations
Brand top-up is not guaranteed.
8.4 Non-Activation
If the Campaign closes below 70% of the Community Target:
- The project will not proceed to production.
- Contributions will be handled as per the Refund Policy.
No product will be manufactured in this case.
8.5 Production Start & Timeline
Production begins only after Activation.
Estimated fulfillment timeline:
- 8–10 weeks after Campaign Close
Timelines are estimates and may vary due to:
- manufacturing constraints
- material sourcing
- logistics
- unforeseen operational factors
Contributors will receive updates through the Kitchen Ledger and official communication channels.
9. Production, Fulfillment & Delivery
Once the Campaign is Activated, Ludic begins production and fulfillment of the Ludic Kitchen Product and associated perks.
9.1 Production Timeline
Production starts only after Activation and after the Campaign closes.
For Project 01:
- Estimated fulfillment timeline: 8–10 weeks after Campaign Close
This includes:
- manufacturing
- quality checks
- packaging
- perk assembly
- dispatch preparation
All timelines are estimates and may vary depending on operational or supply chain factors.
9.2 Order Processing
Each confirmed Seat is treated as one fulfillment unit.
Your shipment may include:
- the Ludic Kitchen Product
- physical inserts and collectibles
- any applicable tier-specific physical perks
Digital perks (such as certificates, ledger access, archive access, credits, or discounts) may be delivered separately via email or account access and may not be part of the physical shipment.
9.3 Dispatch & Delivery
Orders will be dispatched once ready.
Delivery timelines after dispatch depend on:
- shipping partner
- serviceability of your location
- local logistics conditions
Tracking details will be shared where available.
9.4 Batch Fulfillment
Orders may be fulfilled in batches rather than all at once.
This means:
- different contributors may receive shipments at different times
- higher tiers or specific variants may ship earlier or later depending on packaging and inventory readiness
Batch dispatch helps ensure smoother operations and faster overall fulfillment.
9.5 Delays
While Ludic aims to meet estimated timelines, delays may occur due to factors outside our direct control, including:
- manufacturing or vendor delays
- material shortages
- quality issues
- customs or logistics disruptions
- force majeure events
Such delays do not qualify for refunds, cancellations, or compensation.
Contributors will be kept informed through official updates.
9.6 Address Accuracy
Contributors are responsible for providing accurate shipping details.
Ludic is not responsible for failed deliveries caused by:
- incorrect or incomplete addresses
- unreachable recipients
- repeated delivery failures
Additional shipping charges may apply for re-dispatch where required.
9.7 Multiple Shipments
In some cases:
- physical perks and product may ship separately, or
- digital perks may be issued at different times
This does not affect your eligibility for any included benefits.
9.8 Nature of Estimates
All delivery and production timelines shared during the Campaign are estimates, not guaranteed dates.
By participating, contributors acknowledge that Ludic Kitchen follows a build-after-backing model, and timelines may shift as the product is created.
10. Campaign Changes & Operational Adjustments
Ludic Kitchen is a build-in-public, evolving creation process.
Because products and perks are developed after the Campaign begins, certain operational or logistical adjustments may be required during the lifecycle of the project.
10.1 Nature of the Process
Contributors acknowledge that:
- designs evolve
- prototypes improve
- materials may change
- production decisions may be refined
These changes are part of the normal development process and are made to improve quality, feasibility, or delivery.
Final products and perks may differ slightly from early visuals, mock-ups, or descriptions shared during the Campaign.
10.2 Permitted Adjustments
Ludic may make reasonable operational changes, including but not limited to:
- packaging or insert updates
- substitutions of freebies or minor perks
- vendor or manufacturing changes
- timeline adjustments
- sequencing of dispatch
- format changes (digital vs physical)
- event rescheduling or cancellation
- design refinements that do not materially alter core functionality
Such changes are made to ensure smooth execution and overall project quality.
10.3 Perk Substitutions
If a specific perk, insert, or component becomes unavailable due to production or supply constraints, Ludic may:
- modify the design, or
- replace it with a similar item of comparable intent or value
This does not affect your eligibility for the main product or core tier benefits.
10.4 No Material Reduction
Any adjustments will not materially reduce:
- the primary product promised
- the core value of the selected tier
Ludic will make reasonable efforts to maintain the overall experience and benefit of participation.
10.5 Communication
Where meaningful changes occur, Ludic will share updates through:
- official email communication
- the Kitchen Ledger
so contributors remain informed.
