Submission Guidelines: 

- Send an email to info@GolgiProductions.com with a description of the game and directions on how to access.

​

Rules:

- Games do NOT need to be finished products, playable prototypes are good enough.

- Must provide submission by April 1st, 2019.

- Desktop, browser, or mobile are acceptable formats.

- Golgi will retain co-branding rights on the final version of your game.

​

How do we fund you?

- Golgi Productions will provide a guaranteed minimum prize of $5,000.  Additional prize money will be contingent on our sales team, who will seek funding for your project from non-profit health and science advocacy organizations.

​

How are winners chosen?

- Four judges will rank all submissions from best to worst, highest total score wins.  

- Judges will include at least one scientist, teacher, and student.

​

Themes:

- There are no explicit criteria, a good game on a subject we care less about is worth more than a bad game on a subject we're really interested in.

​

Tips:

- We strongly discourage "fact bubbles".  Instead, facts should be programmed into game mechanics.

- To see an example of the type of thing we're looking for, see games in development.

- We want you to succeed!  Reach out to us early, we are very happy to provide feedback on whether your idea is in line with our expectations.
