We are organizing a new Builders Contest! The best world will win a digital Steam Gift Card worth 100, and the next spots will win 50 / 25 / 15 / 10, respectively. We are planning to use these worlds to film a new main trailer and to make new screenshots for the Steam Storepage. This leads to a bunch of specific needs and preferences:

[h3]What are we looking for?[/h3]

• Worlds showcasing many of the features in the game, especially newer features like the rails, roofs, gliders, outposts, traps etcetera
  
• Houses for colonists to work/sleep in
  
• Visually appealing colonies that form a coherent whole, like a village, castle or city.
  
• Functionality of what's built - it should be actively used by colonists and serve a purpose beyond the visual
  
• Visible infrastructure between colonies and outposts, with rails / paths / bridges / gliders
  
• Colonies that do "the whole game"; they should be approximately self-sufficient in the way it ends up when you naturally play the game, they should look "lived in".
  
• Worlds that have depth, that you can get lost in, with outposts in the distance and plenty of small streets and alleys

• Huge fields of tightly packed beds
  
• Giant warehouses
  
• "Car park farming"
  
• Worlds that look like they were built with cheats, where it is obvious that the player always used the flight-cheat to move between colonies, that many resources appeared without the required production facilities
  
• Worlds visibly using mods
• Purely decorative builds

• Upload your world to the Steam Workshop from Colony Survival (Main Menu > Mod Manager > Create Item)
  
• Navigate towards the Colony Survival Workshop in Steam, acces "Your Workshop Files" and click on the world you just uploaded
  
• Put 2024 Builders Contest at the start of the description
  
• Add at least one screenshot to showcase your colony
  
• Fully publish your world to the Steam Workshop
  
• Do this before January the 5th 2024, 8AM Amsterdam time
  
• Its fine to use worlds that youve started before the start of the contest
  
• It should be a world of your own creation, youre not allowed to download a strangers world and upload that
  
• Youre allowed to upload multiple worlds
  
• We operate according to the spirit of the rules, not the letter of the rules. We might adjust the rules to better fit the goals of the contest.
