NEO spring coding contest 2006 for NDS announcement Rev.

[Didou]

Hi,

Did I miss something  ? But I was not able to find legal rules that apply to the submitted entries. Is there some document somewhere ?

Is it possible to release the sources of the submitted entries ?

Is is possible to release the binaries of the submitted entries ?

How and where to send submissions ?

I'm a bit lost  ... Or I completly missed something 

Thanks

Hi, I think the close time is a little.. early ( there are exams in february ), what do you think to delay the compo entry until feb. 29? ( march better xD )

[Dr.neo]

sorry we can't delay because announce the close time from the beginning already:)

maybe we will change it to March for the 2007 compos:)

Here's my shot at the NDS splash.........

biker trash, that looks good, only the letters are horrible! If you could post that pic withouth the letters and allow me to fix that I think that would be a very good splash then

   I still havent seen the exact legal rules pertaining to the compo. I have read this entire thread and there is no mention of several key points.

1. Does submission to the contest in any way waive the developers rights to the submission? In other words, who retains rights of the IP?

2. Is it necessary to submit code or only a binary file?

3. Must the submission be an unreleased game/app or can it be an updated version of existing software (not entered in previous compos of course)?

3a. If the software has already been released is it acceptable to distribute the file on other sites or must it be exclusively hosted on neoflash.com? If so, for how long?

I am seriously concidering entering this contest (I've already began development) but I would like to clear these issues up, for myself and others, sooner rather than later.

which would you like posted just look at them  from top a,b,c... etc..
I have in psd  with layers as well.. what is your reccomendation on the lettering,  I have about any program or font there is .....

[Badname]

Well with photoshop make the letters better looking, now they look like its too cheap mspaintisch.
Check these some letter styles i came up with for inspiration maybe, just play around with the textlayer propertys to make something nice and not too crouded for the eye.


I oresume your able to make it, if you want any help you could post the .psd.

[biker trash]

I see what you meen, kinda cheap looking, though I was going for the cheep old  CRT feel

[Badname]

Here is my attampt

I also have a version in green, but this one looked better.
