Hello.
I want to officially start the first modding contest of Rogue: Genesia.
[h2]The theme of the mod creation contest is:[/h2]
[h1]challenges[/h1]
(No secrets there, I've already talked about it previously)
[h3]The contest is open until Sunday, 6th October at 6pm GMT/ 2pm EST/ 11am PDT[/h3]
[h2]To participate:[/h2]
publish your modded challenge on the workshop and fill out this google form with the link to your mod:
https://forms.gle/kBb42DDeXUxqpYM68
No limits on the number of entries.
[h2]How are the winners chosen[/h2]
The contest will have 2 categories, "Normal challenge" and "Hardmode challenge."
Normal challenge and Hardmode challenge will be judged on:
[list]
[*] How fun they are.
[*] How they push the player to change their way of playing the game.
[*] How balanced they feel (Hardmode ones should still be possible to complete).
[*] How original they are (surprise me).
[/list]
Following feedback from the previous Monthly Devblog, there won't be any cash prize to win, and the contest is there for people to have fun!

[*] I've written 2 guides about it:
