The admin for the event at my college (New Jersey Institute of Technology) is interested in using Construct 2 for the Game Jam. We received time-limited but otherwise fully functional Game Maker HTML5 licenses, and he was wondering if there was any possibility of getting a similar sponsorship from Scirra for Construct 2. He should be sending along an email tonight; unfortunately, the event starts Friday, so it's kind of short notice...

So @Ashley, @Tom, what do you think?
All's fair in love and war, kid.

Yes, we're sponsoring some events on an individual basis and are happy to have people email us. Short notice is fine!

We would need number of attendees, location, as well as a brief overview of what he could offer us in ways of promotion (for example a tweet, a mention at the event, nothing major!).

We can't provide financial aid, but what we have been doing is giving free licenses to the event that they can use as prizes.

If he's interested he's free to drop me an email!

So can the licenses only be used as prizes, @Tom? He was interested in using them to make the games for the competition, just to be perfectly clear. Prizes are also nice, but not our primary concern.

Last question, I promise!

Questions are fine don't worry! It would be best to continue this by email though, please could you email tom@scirra.com with what he's got exactly in mind. I can't promise anything though I'm afraid.
