Calling all aspiring game developers! We're super excited to announce the second Games Innovation Challenge sponsored by Barclays, a games development competition for university and college students across the UK to test their skills and creativity.
Starting today, 31st January, you have eight weeks to create the most innovative game and for those wanting to get competitive, submissions will be judged by a panel of industry experts with a prize pool of £5,000 for the best entries.
We want to see the most innovative games you can come up with, but we’ll be judging them on the following categories which are awarded prizes.
Prize breakdown:
Teams can be formed of students from different universities and colleges and also contain non-students. However, to take part in the challenge, the majority of the team and the project lead must be enrolled at a university or college. Any platform and prebuilt assets can be used, provided you have the permission or license to do so. We have a Games Innovation Challenge Discord channel to help you find teammates, which you can join here.
A panel of gaming and esports industry experts will be looking at the following criteria to judge the games:
A full set of rules can be found on the Games Innovation Challenge submissions page or in the participant pack.
