03Data and asset sources

• Names and Paldeck data: Pal names, Paldeck numbers, and public reference information were checked against paldb.cc. Public availability does not mean copyright has been waived, and this project does not claim ownership of its database or web content.
• Character images: Current runtime assets are primarily sourced from public file pages on Palworld Wiki. Individual source URLs, upstream revisions, and local hashes are recorded in the asset manifest. A small number of images were adapted through background separation and similar processing.
• Music and sound effects: Sources include Cal McEachern and BenjaTheMaker on OpenGameArt and asset packs by Kenney. They are used under CC0 / public-domain terms; file-level details are listed in the audio attribution file.
• Display font: Lilita One is bundled locally under the SIL Open Font License 1.1; see OFL.txt. Body copy uses fonts installed on the user's device.
