We're launching our first official Hytale modding contest with $100,000 in total prizes!
But this isn't just a contest. This is the start of something much bigger.
My vision for Hytale has always been that modders should be celebrated, not sidelined. The people who pour their creativity into pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the game deserve to be front and center. They deserve to be rewarded. Think of it like esports, but for modders. We want to build an ecosystem where talent rises to the top, where the community recognizes and elevates the people making incredible things. This contest is the first step. There will be many more.
For this first contest, we chose World Gen V2 and NPC as two of our three categories very intentionally. These are areas where we know extraordinary talent exists, and honestly, we're scouting. If you blow us away, don't be surprised if we reach out. We want the best modders in the world working alongside us.
And looking ahead: over the coming months, we'll be rolling out more modding tools, an in-game mod browser, and a lot more. We're also thinking deeply about how players can directly reward the modders they love, without turning the game into a shopping mall. It should be fair for players and meaningful for creators.
This is just the beginning.
I still wish someone could explain this to me. Why is it that an account with 5~6k followers can get 10k likes on a post about my game - while when *I* post about it, I am lucky to get 300 likes? And I have 50k+ followers. Are all my followers dead?
This same thing happened during the entire time we were trying to drum up public support for "Alice: Asylum" - all that art, design, and other effort was essentially lost to the void.
Why it frustrates me: In terms of the sort of response a publisher would want to see as a measure of the IP's potential, there was practically nothing.
But to this day when a random X/Insta account posts up a video montage - it blows the doors off.
What gives?
PS: No shade toward those who pull these kind of numbers. More power to you. But I do wish some of that power could have been shown in response to the effort we made trying to get a 3rd game made π€·
BALDURS GATE 3 BALDURS GATE 3 BALDURS GATE 3 (I'm obsessed for the 3rd time now since it released) BALDURS GATE 3 BALDURS GATE 3 IM GOING TO KISS @larianstudios IM KISSING THE STUDIO, BEST GAME
I'm not sure when the FFXIV Dawntrail website updated with the official static CG renders of Wuk Lamat, Erenville, Krile, and G'raha Tia, but they are indeed so beautiful π₯Ή
they add a second dye channel, yet make the second one on the latest gear...the collar instead of the big RED thing at the bottom for example? my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined, surely once they add a 3rd dye channel SE will learn how to do dyes properly x.x
so anyways guys, just a heads up, if you buy something accidentally that you thought was a diff thing and dunno how to use it, do not use it! c: i def did not fry a chip and my audio setup in one go c: teehee i guess
