Mega Jam 2022 and Exclusive Licence

Hello! I´ve sent my game to the MegaJam yesterday but I´m reading the terms and agreements now and it says I´m giving an exclusive licence to the partners.

I really want to know what does this means? I was planning to make a Kickstarter campaign today to fund my game and finish it to release it on Playstation and Nintendo Switch. Can I still do this? or does it means they own my game now? Also, do they own my game or just the demo? Does it mean that if I change the game a bit it won’t be covered by the licence?

I have no problem with the partners publishing my demo, or asking me to include their logos in my final release, but I just want to be sure I can still fund, finish my game and release it without any legal issue.

No response??

You should always ask
legal questions to lawyers,
medical questions to physicians,
…and so on.
NOT to laymen, as any answers from those are not only unqualified -even with their best intentions- but also be plain wrong and lead you in the false direction which may be fatal for you.

Hey @CharlieAtom,

We confirmed with our legal advice. You can continue development, seek funding and release without interference from Epic, and the standard licensing would apply in this instance.
