Short DescriptionDesigning a game? Don’t skip the rules behind the rules! From copyrights to contracts, glean the legal essentials every game designer needs—from pros who know the fine print.
Long DescriptionFrom the legal team behind the original Open Gaming License (OGL) and the Open RPG Creative License (ORC), this session offers a clear, practical overview of key legal issues for game developers, publishers, authors, and creatives. We’ll walk through the essential legal foundations every creative needs, from forming your company to protecting your intellectual property (and avoiding unintentional infringement!). We’ll cover critical contracts— including independent contractor agreements, licensing deals, and partnership agreements— and briefly touch on basic privacy, funding, and advertising considerations. Get practical advice from a firm deeply rooted in the gaming industry. Whether you're scaling your studio or simply dreaming, you’ll leave with a stronger grasp of how to protect your work, your brand, and your creative future.
