I�ve to ask some questions: -Can I resource (crypt) the gamefiles or must I publish them? Must it be open sourced? -Can I sell an extended version of the game or must I give all rights to conitec? Thanks, fogman no science involved

We want to learn from your scripts. 2) You can sell an extended version of your game, or even the same version of the game. Conitec has the right to post the demo on its sites (Acknex Unlimited, etc), but doesn't become the owner of your game.

Would a lemmings or frogger clone be still a casual game? thanks for hopefully not blameing me^^, ~Gurke http:\\www.cybergurke.de.vu letztes Update: 02.08.2006 ---------------------------- Aktuelle Projekte: -P.I.

I read through the explanation of the term "casual game" written down on wikipedia which shows the problems in classifying a game as casual game so I thought I should better ask instead of simply starting to work^^! Thanks for the answere. ~Gurke http:\\www.cybergurke.de.vu letztes Update: 02.08.2006 ---------------------------- Aktuelle Projekte: -P.I. Storys

Too bad because copying a casual game and releasing its clones will be so much likely,because esentially most of the games in this market are clones.We already have an entry almost signed by some big causal game portals and we could have entered the contest,but alas we would rather recover the prize money through a sequel of the same game we make using the same code.Anyway,no offence to the contest,but its a pity for us
