Does the Jam let us keep the rights to games we make during the Jam and not restrict distribution after the fact?

Of course! When did that ever become a thing that you HAVE to state this. I in no way have any intention on anything but helping you all grow.

You are the creators of something that requires hard work and time. What right would I, or any game jam host have to your art / intellectual property?
Is this a thing now where I have to put this somewhere to make sure everyone knows this? I thought it went without saying lol.

Thanks for bring this up!

I don't know I just had one Jam I was going to do had it in their rules. I think it was because they were going to release the winning game on consoles but it's been a while since I saw that. I don't think it's a typical thing I think it just happened once.

Sounds like con-artistry to me lol

TechRunner - I just wanted to say how much I appreciate that your avatar icon has the T-Pride Flag in it!
Two BIG thumbs up! ;)

Yea, I made it in blender. Technically this is one of my older pfp but I like it. The flag is there on purpose since it's my flag and I like to show pride in myself.

I'm happy you have pride in who you are! I have a number of friends - including some game devs - who are represented by this flag as well. We desperately need more gender diversity in game development. It's getting better than when I started in this industry, but still...there's a reason I use gender-neutral handles. >_<
