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.

    "Your task is to come up with a great idea for an online game inspired by art, film, music, writing or dance. We're looking for a game offering about 5-10 minutes of game play. The winning game will be made using Flash. You don't need technical or illustrative skills to take part but you do need to be passionate about games."

    Wake me up when they're offering real prizes for real games made with my real skills, instead of lame teenager stereotyping.

    Don't bother. It's UK-only like everything else on the internet.
