BYOND Anime

Any game found to contain content from any other game listed on the front page will be de-listed without warning. Game submissions that violate this rule will be rejected without explanation.

If you want your game to be accepted into the guild or simply to not get removed then your game must meet the following criteria for the anime guild, as well as any criteria deemed appropriate by judges.

1. Rips often do not do well in submissions, because of low quality. Make sure you have put significant work into replacing existing code AND icons AND interfaces with better versions before submitting.

2. Stealing artwork, code or interfaces is not cool. It is accepted that some source code, artwork etc. has been public for a long time, so may be accepted provided you comply with rule 1. Ultimately what is or is not acceptable use is for the judges to decide on a submission to submission basis.

3. Games that are not done and not publicly available will not be accepted. There is no way for us to possibly evaluate a game that is never hosted by you or hostable by us.

4. No game that makes use of copyrighted material such as from a manga, anime, or videogame, can make a profit or perform financial transactions for benefits. Donations to cover servers costs etc. are acceptable, but must not be tied to player benefits. Any such relationship will be seen as a transaction by us. Transparency in donations is very highly valued.
