Ubisoft Challenges You To Design A Game
Think you've got what it takes to be a game designer? Submit your best game ideas to the Design to Win contest for a chance to win a free course in game design courtesy of Ubisoft and The Next Level.
The Design to Win contest just launch. If you're an aspiring game designer then you'll have until August 11 to submit your best game ideas to the Design to Win contest for a chance to win a class in game design from The Academy of Art University. In order to win, designers must submit an overview of their game and one piece of original game concept art. Finalists will be picked by a panel of judges at PAX Prime later this year, and the winner will be announced on The Next Level Twitch page. Even if you're not a designer you can still participate in the voting on the contest's official website.

Our Take
This is cool, but if you have a great idea for a game, don't just stop at the concept phase, keep plugging away and try to actually make a game. Plenty of great indie games come out every year. Maybe yours could be one of them! Keep at it champ.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
