a new sanctuary for enthusiasts of digital art

If you have strong cold symptoms (coughing, sneezing, runny nose), please wear a mask to protect the health of other visitors. Thank you for taking care of others' health!

Spirits and cigarettes prohibited for persons under the age of 18 years. This is a public institution, taken very seriously.

Smoking and electronic cigars are forbidden inside the party area. You can smoke only outside the building, at the entrance. But don't throw the cigarette butts apart, please!

No dogs, cats or other pets are allowed to enter the facility.

Your own food and drink can be consumed only outside the buffet area. We recommend to buy and eat at the buffet if possible (there will be good prices).

Alcohol consumption is allowed, but please be reasonable, overconsumption might ruin your own and others' fun as well. Any type of damage or offense caused due to that will not be tolerated and will result in the removal from the party.

Consumption and circulation of other drugs at the party place is strictly forbidden, and will result in immediate expulsion from the party. The building's immediate neighbor is the city police.

Any type of damage will be forced to be paid by the culprit! If the person is unknown, we'll have to deduct the price from the party budget, which might endanger the future parties and the cooperation with the partyplace owners! Please take this very seriously.

Connecting kitchen equipment to the power network is forbidden. If this causes a power outage, you'll be held responsible by all the unhappy people...

Organizers are not responsible for any equipment at the party, anything you bring is your responsibility. Luckily we haven't had damage or theft at parties since a while now, and we'd like that to continue so.

By attending our event, you implicitly agree to being filmed or photographed. Please note that we may also have an online stream, which could be recorded and later published on well-known video streaming platforms. In addition, many visitors take their own photos and videos, and the venue is also equipped with security cameras. Nevertheless, when taking photos or videos, please be mindful of other people’s privacy.

Productions can be entered on-location by uploading them via the party network.

By entering, you also agree on having your works uploaded to our website after the party and to various larger demoscene FTP servers (scene.org)

Remote contributions via e-mail are allowed (registration or online ticket NOT required). However we won't safe-keep your prizes, if no one picks it up during the prizegiving.

The organizers reserve the right to remove entries from competitions. These entries won't be shown, won't be spread and won't be votable. In individual competitions this usually means preselection to avoid a huge amount of entries to be presented, in other competitions it solely means quality control and eventual compatibility problems. If your entry doesn't run on the compo machine, we'll do our best to help you to get it running though.

The organizers also reserve the right to merge competitions together if there are not enough entries.

Previously released material is not allowed. Covers, remixes and derivative works can only be entered with the consent of the original author, and you must give credit to the original author in such cases.

The compo entry must be packed together with either ZIP or RAR (or the best packer on that given platform). We will not accept unpacked entries, and we will not pack your entry for you.

For every entry we'd like to ask to include a FILE_ID.DIZ (a simple text file) in the archive, containing the prod's name and author, optionally the compo and party. (Note: Traditionally FILE_ID.DIZ's are 40 characters wide at most.)

For PC compos, the latest DirectX end-user runtime will be installed on the compo machine.
