The Sandbox, a well-known player in the gaming industry, has launched a new initiative called the Halloween Game Jam. This competition invites gamers and content creators to showcase their expertise in game experience creation using assets and music from the rock band, Avenged Sevenfold.
Dubbed ‘FallO’ween‘, this unique event intertwines the magic of autumn with the spooky vibes of Halloween, providing a 30-day escapade starting October 30. The event is inclusive, welcoming everyone from casual quest lovers to avatar and LAND owners. Participants stand a chance to win from a generous prize pool of 600,000 SAND, the platform’s native currency while navigating through 200 captivating quests.
Diverse Reward Pools and Requirements
The rewards are categorized into three pools: a 100K SAND pool open to all, a 200K SAND pool for Avatar Owners, and a 300K SAND pool exclusive for LAND Owners. To be eligible for these rewards, participants must complete all 200 quests of the FallO’ween event and have a verified account through KYC. Prospective participants are urged to register before November 12, with the full theme of the contest being unveiled on November 13.
Harnessing The Sandbox’s Game Maker Software
Contestants are required to use The Sandbox’s Game Maker software for their game creations, with a variety of prizes up for grabs. The total prize money stands at a whopping $15,000 in SAND tokens, distributed across various categories, from honorable mentions receiving $250 to the grand prize winner taking home $5,000. Avenged Sevenfold ups the ante by offering an exclusive chance for winners to have their games published directly on their virtual property within The Sandbox.
Ensuring Fair Play and Originality
To maintain a level playing field, The Sandbox has laid down clear rules and requirements. Games must be crafted using the Game Maker software, adhering to specified guidelines regarding size and duration. Originality is key, as the platform emphasizes the need for unique game experiences, steering clear of any imitations.
