If you love what Image & Form Games has done with the SteamWorld series over the years, you're no doubt keeping tabs on its next release, SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech. This Switch title - recently revealed during the Nintendo Indie Highlights presentation - is steering the series in a completely new card-based RPG direction.

With some room to shake things up a little this time around, Image & Form has now posted a tweet asking fans to create their very own background NPC for SteamWorld Quest. The best description or sketch of a robot doing something will then be added to the game. The winner will also score a free copy of SteamWorld Quest on the Switch. Unfortunately, the deadline is soon - so be quick!

Create a background NPC for SteamWorld Quest! Reply with a description or sketch of a "robot doing something" (think idle animation) to enter. One winner will get their character featured in-game and win a copy of #SWQuest for Nintendo Switch. Deadline's tomorrow, so think fast! pic.twitter.com/Cl0pmQzFQD February 6, 2019
