Two Adelaide-based digital content creators have told a parliamentary select committee about the alleged theft of their intellectual property by an Adelaide software company.

"In relation to the removal of the Kitty Keeper game from the App Store and [Google] Play Store, this was a result of the game not meeting performance benchmarks set out in the contract," the spokesperson said.

Labor's Kyam Maher, who was the Minister for Innovation when the grant was awarded to Mighty Kingdom, said concerns about intellectual theft should be referred to the courts.Another game creator, Shannon Cross, told the committee he was stripped of any power relating to his game "Dungeon Chop Chop" and ultimately shut out of the project before his employment was terminated.

"While the claims made by Shannon are false, we are willing to continue to work with Shannon to resolve his concerns."
