Liability while releasing a VR game on the Meta Store
I'm working on a Meta Quest native minigame I wanted to release for free just to know how it feels to have a released game. While uploading an apk to the meta alpha release channel I had to sign the "Electronic Developer Distribution Agreement". In there in §10.3 and §11.1(b) it says something about me being liable for people getting hurt while using my software and that I have to protect Meta from lawsuits... I'm worried somebody's gonna hit their kid while flinging themselves off a platform or something and sue me for damages... Am I overthinking? I can't afford a lawsuit and don't want to deal with it for a free game.
Is there something I can do to protect myself? Do I maybe not need to worry? I already added motion sickness settings and a warning in the first game screen.
