Gamercamp inspires Game Prototype Challenge.

So this may be the coolest thing to come out of this year’s amazing Gamercamp event.  The Monday right after Gamercamp ended game dev Jason Kaplan started The Game Prototype Challenge and threw down its first mission on Twitter: make a game featuring ‘dreams’ and ‘collectables’ in a week.  A week later six games were submitted.  You can try them out here.

So now they want to do the same again just bigger and better! Game Prototype Challenge v2 will announce its theme Dec 13th.  It’ll be open to everyone not just Toronto folks so spread the word to game makers you know outside the city!

You can follow and submit games through their Twitter @GamePrototypeCh. If you don’t have twitter you can still take part through their webpage gameprototypechallenge.com

If you’re interested in learning more about how the challenge started, Village Gamer has a great little interview on it.
