GDWC Student Competition Participation (optional, but to get the extra points, check the deadline from the page) -> +10% points

Submit your game to the GDWC Student Game Award 2022 competition.
Ensure your game satisfies the rules. For example, you have full rights to use your used assets.
Competition asks for your game's name, description, a couple of screenshots, and a short gameplay video. Work well on these!
Provide some proof (screenshot, e-mail) to us that you have submitted your game.
Doing this will boost your project points by 10% rounded down and clamped at 5p. Meaning that, if by the end of the course you get from [50, 60] points for your project, the boost is +5p, for [40, 50) points the boost is +4p, [30, 40) is +3p, etc.
This boost will be added to your team's score at the end of the course.
