Hey all!

Welcome to the Cobalt Workshop Challenge, a fun and lighthearted competition in which you create and share Cobalt levels with the community and win prizes!

CWC #1 - “Deathmatch” - ends February 28

Let’s start out with a fairly straight-forward and open-ended “make a deathmatch map” challenge! Make it for 2 players or make it for 8! Make it indoors or in the jungle! It’s up to you.

Objective:

  • Create a level with the “Deathmatch” game mode.
  • Share it to the Steam Workshop with the tag “CWC1”
  • You can contribute as many levels as you want

Categories:

  • Best map - The map which has the best flow and is the most fun to play
  • Most beautiful map - The map that looks the best!
  • Most memorable - The map that is the most surprising, innovative, or in some other way especially memorable

Jury:

  • Oxeye Game Studio (thewreck, Kinten, and jeb_)
  • Janeator

Prizes:

  • The winner in each category gets a redeemable Cobalt cape in Minecraft (yes, you can give it to someone else)
  • One level can win multiple categories
