Hello, everyone!
[url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1062090/view/4617965876718311948]Update 6 - Wonders of Water[/url] has been out for over a month now, and it seems everyone loves the new water physics, expanded verticality, and the official mod support. So why not combine all that in a new map contest? [b]Three 1000 EUR prizes[/b] and [b]Timberborn swag[/b] are on the line!
[h1]Build-a-Map Contest 4[/h1]
The goal of the contest is simple. You need to create an original, playable, and pretty map that makes good use of Update 6 features. As always, that’s open to your interpretation. Whether you stack layers of water thanks to 3D water physics, expand the initial verticality with Natural Overhangs, prepare extra flexible start options, or do something entirely different - it’s up to you.
The only formal requirement is that the map features [b]at least one Natural Overhang of any size[/b].
Once finished, add a description to your map and back it up with at least three screenshots, including one showing the entire map. This helps both us and the other players who will check out your creation.
[h1]Prizes[/h1]
There are three size categories in the contest:
[list]
[*] 128x128 and lower
[*] 129x129 through 255x255
[*] 256x256 and higher
[/list]
In each map category, the winner gets [b]1000 EUR[/b] and [b]merch[/b] (Timberborn mug and T-Shirt). Winners will also be added to in-game credits and granted an exclusive rank on our Discord.
The three honorable mentions in each category also get the merch.
