Game Design Contest For Teens

Posted by Zonk on from the the-next-tetris dept.

Via the Guardian's gameblog, a BBC "Blast" sponsored game design contest for teenagers. They're looking for new ideas from folks ages 13 - 19, and the winning design will be made into a game for the Blast site. They also have a nifty (though flash based) Game Quiz which covers not only the history of games but also game design issues as well.

    YOU can be the winner of a temporary and unpaid pre-internship*, where you sign away the rights to your award winning** idea. After that, you can even write your own post mortem. SWEET!

    Or It Perhaps could be regular secrets / the element of surprise.

    And fear. And a fanatical devotion to the Pope.
