Prizes
If you're still not convinced, here are some major reasons why you should participate:
$19,000 in prizes. Yes, you can turn your ideas into money.
We have three different prize tracks to cater to various types of participants:
Track 1 - Bring/Build a Game on Avalanche ($10,000)
Create a game using the Avalanche blockchain, whether it’s a brand-new project or an adaptation of something you've already developed—regardless of the game engine or programming language used. The key is to explore Avalanche's features to make your game even more engaging.
- 1st place: $5,000
- 2nd place: $2,500
- 3rd place: $1,500
- 4th to 6th place: prizes ranging from $500 to $250
Track 2 - Small Actions, Big Consequences ($4,000)
Develop a game where small actions trigger significant consequences. (This means it should be a core part of your gameplay.) It could be a dynamic economic system, a story where each choice impacts the world, or an unexpected effect in your game’s core updates.
- 1st place: $1,800
- 2nd place: $1,200
- 3rd place: $500
- 4th and 5th place: $250 each
Track 3 - Community Leaderboard ($5,000)
Here, you earn points by actively participating in the community, helping other developers, completing educational modules, and inviting friends. The more engaged you are, the higher your chances of winning, similar to any social engagement within communities.
- 1st place: $1,000
- 2nd and 3rd place: $400 each
- 4th to 7th place: $200 each
- 8th to 10th place: $100 each
- 11th to 20th place: $50 each
- Bonus for Ambassadors: $1,000
Since the announcement, many have had questions about Avalanche Blockchain Integration. Simply put, your "Web3" game just needs to perform actions on the Avalanche network, such as transactions, digital asset purchases, authorizations, and smart contract interactions. Nothing overly complicated.
Who Can Participate?
Everyone! That’s why there are different prize categories. Seriously, if you’re interested in game development, you’re in. Whether you're a veteran or just starting out, this event is for you.
Attention:
If you are under 18 years old, you need a guardian’s authorization to receive the prize in their name, but other than that, just sign up and start creating.
Bonus: Developers Coming from Hive
This is a personal prize distribution. It is not officially linked to the Game Jam organizers.
- 25 $HIVE distributed to ELIGIBLE participants.
- An additional +50 $HIVE for Tracks 1 & 2.
- More $HIVE prizes to be revealed!
To qualify, you just need to be eligible for one of the three Tracks—whether by developing on Avalanche, creating a game following the theme, or actively participating in the community.
Don't miss this chance to showcase your talent, win prizes, and become part of an incredible game developer community.
