I was also wondering if there are any DevRel awards since they weren’t listed in the post.

Well, you’ve sadly made the same mistake that the crappy mobile app game jam made:
- Intellectual Property Rights, Representations, and Warranties.
b)
To the extent the Entry is not fully assignable, Entrant irrevocably grants Roblox
and its affiliates, legal representatives, assigns, agents and licensees, the
unconditional, nonexclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free and perpetual right and
permission to reproduce, store, copy, transmit, publish, post, broadcast, distribute,
display, publicly perform, adapt, exploit, make derivative works from, exhibit
and/or otherwise use or reuse (without limitation as to when or to the number of
times used) the Entry, in any and all media without limitation as to time or
territory, and without additional compensation or approval from the entrant or any
other party. You waive any right to inspect or approve uses of the Entry. You
waive intellectual property rights, privacy/publicity rights or other legal or moral
rights that might preclude Roblox’s use of the Entry, and agree not to sue or assert
any claim against Roblox for the use of the Entry or your likeness or statements.
Except to the extent in conflict with or as otherwise provided in this Agreement,
in the course of participating in this Contest, whatever you provide to us (whether
we ask for it or not) will be considered User-Generated Content (UGC), as that
term is defined in the General Terms. For the sake of clarity, that UGC will be
subject to the General Terms, including without limitation Section 6(B) and the
royalty-free license to Roblox to reproduce and distribute your UGC on the
platform described therein
Aka: You’re giving over the game that you made, and Roblox can do anything they want with it. I can understand Roblox’s want to show the winner and advertise (even show the game on the front page), but to “reproduce, public, and post,” specifically “and without additional compensation or approval from the entrant or any
other party,” and take away their revenue from the game turns me away from this gamejam. I can understand the $1k gift card but we’re just giving our game away submitting it to you, even if we don’t win.
I completely understand, but no thank you.
Also, if you’re joining the gamejam, please for dear lord read the fine print.

All of those are extremely subjective. What does “most immersive experience” mean? Is the goal to make the game realistic graphically or to make it realistic gameplay-wise (no fantasy etc.)?
Good spot, some clarity from @Gu4rana (or other organizers of this event) would be nice as this is super sketchy.

Do you know whether this was for the Connect Challenge as well? I’m interested now.
Yeah, they did. So wait, we can’t use our own creations off platform on Steam or anything?
Apologies if I missed the answer to this earlier in the thread; is this event eligible for the DevRel Virtual Prize Series?
Probably drawn up by legal, but it’s not very nice of them to do.
Can’t wait I might convince some friends to join with me.
This is pretty standard legal stuff for Roblox. They just want to cover any legal circumstance. For example, if they want to make a video of it they’d need this kind of permission.
I’m pretty sure it just gives Roblox the right to also use your IP
(Note I’m not a lawyer and stuff)

Will there be any form of a virtual items for participating in this contest? A bit disappointing the Devrel items won’t be available here given the lack of English Gamejams, but it’d be great to have something special from this competition, which would be motivating as well. It’s a big strive to aim for the top for a lot of developers, and given how huge this competition is, I think it would be nice to commemorate.
