basically it just means I'd be able to put it on a physical disc for back up. Steam has a digital code so that you have to play it through the steam app. There isn't a way to download to put on a disc for back up. You would need the internet to play. For instance Sony is going full digital. If for some reason they decide not to host a game for some reason and take it down. You wouldn't be able to play it at all anymore. Steam is the same. If for some reason you took the page down for nymble 2. The people who bought it would no longer be able to play.
This is the email I got from them about this.
Thank you for contacting Coolmath Games and showing interest in our game jam! When you submit a game to this game jam, we DO NOT take ownership of the game. Developers will still maintain all ownership of their games. When we select our 3 winners, we intend to promote those games on our financial literacy page and there will be a conversation of getting exclusivity for it. However, games that are not selected as winners are still the property of the developers.
This portion of the rules is meant to use the games as a way to promote and celebrate the creations from the game jam. When a game is submitted and it abides by our rules, your game will be featured in the Submissions on our game page. We own the submission of the game used in the jam, but this does NOT mean the games become our property. We have no intention of retrieving the source code from the games or taking control of the game's IP in any way.
