• StarBreak Community Contest #1: Design a Fire Forest Monster - 17 June 2016

  https://www.crunchy.com/sites/default/files/pictures/contest/promo_contest1_web.png Welcome to the first StarBreak community contest! THE GOAL: Create your very own enemy character for the Fire Forest mission and see it come to life inside StarBreak! THE RULES: We are accepting all forms of visual media. You may send us drawings, paintings, videos, sculptures...anything! Feel free to include a brief write up as well, but your entry should be primarily visual in nature. The enemy character should be designed to fit into the Fire Forest mission. Give the mission a few runs and get a feel for the environment and enemies! What’s important is getting your idea across clearly! When judging entries, priority will be placed on the concept of your enemy character, not necessarily the quality of artwork. Nothing too vulgar; try to keep content in line with what you’ve seen in StarBreak so far. Al…
