Excited for Ouya? So are the folks at Kill Screen — so much so, they’ve seen fit to host a 10-day competition to coax Ouya compatible game prototypes out of the development community. It’s calling the event CREATE, and in addition to drumming up interest for Kickstarter’s favorite game console, it aims to celebrate how Ouya and a new generation of indie game developers are making the television an open gaming platform. Starting on January 14th, Kill Screen will start accepting prototype submissions of playable (but not necessarily complete) games. Ten days later, a panel of indie veterans will cull the fat, and select finalists based on not only the game itself, but the social media efforts of its development team. This is an indie game competition, after all. The contest judges entrants on how effectively they use the Ouya platform too, including processor, sound, controller integration, in-game payments and other elements available in the console’s development kit. Winners can score anywhere between $5,000 to $20,000 in prizes, with an extra bonus if the finished game launches on Ouya. Enough incentive for you? Check out Kill Screen’s full contest rules at the source link below.Filed under: GamingCommentsSource: Kill Screen, Ouya
