Keep the core alive.
For gameplay, audio, installation, saved progress, family safety, privacy, or adult-player leaderboard help, contact the developer directly.
Include with your request
- Core Cutter version number shown beside the game title;
- phone model and Android version;
- what you expected and what happened; and
- a screenshot if it does not contain private information.
Do not send leaderboard tokens, passwords, verification codes, or other account secrets.
Useful checks
- Sound begins only after a tap and follows the in-game sound switch.
- The full arcade game remains playable offline; global rankings require an adult profile age 18 or older and an internet connection.
- Opening Privacy, Families, or Support is an explicit system-browser action and may send an ordinary browser request to the public support site; no birth date, age category, parent PIN, local progress, Name, or gameplay is attached. Terms and deletion instructions are linked from that site.
- Pending network scores remain unranked until verification succeeds.
- Assist-mode and local-only runs do not enter the global rankings.
Under-18 mode and parent PIN
The first-use age screen accepts month, day, and year with no preset answer. It derives one local category—Junior (0–8), Child (9–12), Teen (13–17), or Adult (18 or older)—immediately discards the birth date, and never sends the date or category off the device.
Junior, Child, and Teen profiles cannot see or join the global leaderboard. A parent or guardian creates the local PIN and must enter it for any profile change. If an Adult installation receives an under-18 result, online eligibility is cleared and rankings are hidden before PIN setup. A preexisting online identity is preserved separately but paused, remains inaccessible, and causes no leaderboard requests while under-18 mode is active; use the deletion instructions if it should be removed. Do not email the PIN or a birth date to support. Read the Family Safety Guide for complete details.
Junior Mode checks
For players age 0–8, Junior Mode shows one large eight-segment ring on one layer with a 60-second uncut window, slow ring motion, fast core tracking, tap or swipe input, and a successful cut that resolves in about 0.8 seconds. It removes armor, lock guards, extra layers, pickups, Pulse, damage, game over, and energy penalties.
Junior Mode plays no background music and no imported swipe/tap sound bank; it uses soft built-in interface and success sounds. Child, Teen, and Adult use the shipped family-safe music catalog.
Privacy and deletion
Read the Privacy Policy or use the account deletion page. Privacy requests may be sent to the same support address.
Public names, reports, and hiding
For adult profiles age 18 or older, read the Terms of Use and player-name rules before saving a public leaderboard name. A name can use 2–20 letters, numbers, spaces, hyphens, or apostrophes and must follow the community rules.
Use Report name on a leaderboard row to send it for moderation review. Use Hide player to remove that player’s rows on your device immediately. If reporting fails or the concern is urgent, email garrykrey@gmail.com with the displayed name and a screenshot if safe; never include your private leaderboard token.
