Gaming Like It's 1923: The Newly Public Domain Game Jam
Okay, we've got one last reminder that our Gaming Like It's 1923 public domain game jam ends in just two days. It's another chance to celebrate the fact that the US finally (years too late) has allowed works from 1923 to return to the public domain where they belong. We've already got over a dozen amazing entries in the contest with a nice mix of different types of games, all utilizing some newly public domain works, and building off of them to create something fun and new. You can check out the existing entries or come up with your own. And for those of you who have already been working on your games, don't forget to submit them by the end of the month (Pacific Time) where they'll be reviewed by our all-star panel of game developers and copyright experts...
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
