Hello everyone!

Build a game. If it's awesome, you could win $5,000.

I'm an employee from Axonify dropping by to let you guys know about an awesome competition we're holding. We're a startup corporate eLearning company that specializes in making corporate training fun - through gamification we drive retention to the masses.

For the next two months, we're holding a competition for developers to submit small browser games that can be played in short sessions that deliver meaningful training content. There's an example video and more details on the site - which you can check out at http://games.axonify.com/

I'd like to stress that if you're in the market for building HTML5 or DOM based games and want to win some extra money - you've got nothing to lose. If you don't win a prize sum, you retain rights to your game fully.

This is great opportunity  to submit small games you may have made with Construct 2, Game Maker HTML5 or other tools, as well. As long as they implement our API and follow the guidelines - you're set!

If you have any questions - please don't hesitate to leave a post or check out the contact address on the web page.

Have a wonderful day! I look forward to seeing some awesome submissions from the brilliant minds of TIGSource.

Quite interesting. However, this paragraph from the Terms and conditions should also be noted:

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY:

Each Entrant, by participating in the Contest, irrevocably consents and agrees that all software, source code, designs, drawings and any other content or information (collectively and severally called “Materials”) that Entrant submits to the Sponsor shall be SUBJECT TO A ROYALTY-FREE, WORLD-WIDE, PERPETUAL, NON-EXCLUSIVE LICENSE (“License”) for the Sponsor to use, reproduce, edit, display, transmit, prepare derivative works of, modify, publish, and otherwise make use of Materials in any and all media, whether now known or hereinafter created, throughout the world and for any purpose, without additional compensation to Entrant of any kind.

I'm confused about this one:

Entrant consents and agrees to waive, and hereby waives, any and all moral rights in the Materials.

Would this be considered only for contest winners?

Thanks for your interest, petarov!

That only applies to contest winners as stated in the initial post and the terms and conditions you've pasted.

" Each Entrant agrees that its Software Entry and all related entry materials shall be subject to a royalty-free, world-wide, perpetual, non-exclusive license to the Sponsor"



The game is yours - you must only transfer over complete rights if you decide you wish to claim a prize. Thanks for your interest.

This is covered in:

", require a winning Entrant to transfer title to, assign ownership of or otherwise allocate all rights in such Entrant’s Software Entry and any related entry materials to the Sponsor, at which time the entry materials shall become the sole and exclusive property of the Sponsor."

Ok. Thanks for clarifying.
