Initium Dev Instance Competition

What is this?

We are holding a competition between Initium content devs to see who can create the best instance. To make it interesting we will be offering a prize pool. If you wish to contribute to the prize pool, just donate at the bottom of this page.

The content devs are invited to participate in a noob instance creation challenge, creating instances like Troll King. The instances will all be released at the same time in various parts of the map at which point players will be encouraged to vote for their favorites.

We will announce on Reddit when the competition begins!

Rules for the competition

The instance must be able to be done by noobs (though you may require that it cannot be soloed and require a group effort) You cannot use an instance you already started. It has to be a completely new concept you start from scratch. The timelimit is for finding art (raw) and creating the location nodes, items, and monster definitions. These are all things that one dev can do alone. Bannerifying artwork will be done after the timelimit is up. Balancing is also done after the time limit is up (but also during if papa has time). Players will be given a certain amount of time to play through the instances and judge which one they like best. There will be categories as follows:

Best Artwork

Best Monsters

Most Fun

Best Overall (perhaps not voted but based on previous categories?)
