Licensing questions

Hi! This jam is a cool opportunity to dive deeper into the Polymorph system, and I'm excited! However, I have some concerns I'd like clarification on, just to make sure I'm not infringing on anything...

Looking at the Free License you provide here on your website, I don't see anywhere how to state that a game has been "built with Polymorph." I know other systems often have such a clause, within the game itself and/or its description text, but couldn't find one here. Is there a template you'd like us to follow for that? Do you even require it, outside including the "Built with Polymorph" image?

On a related note, where should we obtain that image? There's a version of it in the license PDF, but I don't see a place to download a high-quality transparent version of it. (The link above has a larger image combined with your logo... except there it says "powered by," not "built with"!) Could you include the required logo with the license and/or here on the jam page?

Finally, the license asks us to email contact@9thlevel.com if we make a Polymorph game... but I'm assuming that, as you folks will see all the submissions here, that step would be redundant? 馃槄 (I know it's already optional, but I don't want to pester you if such an email will merely make you see double!)

Thanks, and hopefully these questions aren't too nitpicky! Looking forward to building with Polymorph 馃敽馃煣馃敺馃拵

Good questions.  For the image we typically email it after we are informed by someone they are using the self/free license or paid license. However, in this case, I agree that it would be redundant to just inform us of your game BUT please still do reach out to obtain the image to use "Built with Polymorph"
