The Grand Competition!
Forget the weekend sprint—this is an epic, multi-year challenge to develop your masterpiece. With seven years of development time, we are setting the bar for creativity, polish, and innovation.
This is a competition built on freedom, skill, and ambition. We're not giving you a theme—we're giving you a blank canvas and the time required to build a world-class game from scratch.
