Compos
General Compo Rules
All compos allow multiple entries by the same people.
You can enter your entry in multiple compos as long as other rules apply.
The entry must be delivered in a ZIP archive, with filename artist - title.zip (even if it’s just a single file).
You can test your productions on the compo machine before the compo.
Party organizers have the right to publish the compo results, with your name/nick, and all the compo entries.
Disqualified entries and entries not shown in the compo will not be spread.
If your entry can not be run on Windows, please include a video capture. If you need assistance with a video capture the organizers can try to assist you, but please don’t leave it at the last minute before deadline.
If your entry is for a fantasy console or some other runtime, make sure to provide an executable. We will probably not have a reliable internet connection, so if we can’t show it with what’s in the zip, we won’t show it.
All entries will be released on scene.org after the party.
The main demo competition. If you don’t have a windows executable, please provide a video capture.
