GAME DESIGN, STOP PLAYING
The biggest names are caught in a trap…
What if their game was not “100% original”?
What if the question of copyright challenged the ownership of fundamental constituents of the game?
As a piece of software, a musical work, a cinematographic work and an artistic creation, the video game does not have its own legal regime, facilitating the attribution of intellectual property rights.
To this may be added the problem of image rights, and other issues, such as the securing of MMOG data, ownership of creations by player-creators or representation of the virtual reality environment.
Yet, according to the national video game union, more than 700 projects are under development in France.
In this hyper-competitive universe, there is little room for amateurism.
So be sure you measure the risks and put in place the provisions that will allow you to devote yourself totally to the development of your game and its marketing.
