You can't even post it to your own website, AND they want a Splashscreen?

What's GBADev's swearing policy?

Does it mean unfinished games posted on the development forum from this site is disqualified?

Nice to see contests like this!

The development of the game/app should have been started AFTER Oct. 1? Or it's ok even if the development started long ago? ;)

The main issue with comps is usually that you can't have it posted on the web already to enter. After the comp you can post on your own website etc. So I think you can enter your game sverx ;)
