Make some homebrew, win some Datel goodies
You know these guys, right? Datel has made everything from the Max Media Player for the DS to a 4 GB hard drive, and are probably most well-known for the Action Replay cheat device. To celebrate the success of their Max Media Dock, they’ve got a little contest going on for all the players in the homebrew scene today, and the prizes look pretty good for DS users.
The contest is pretty simple: make the best homebrew game you possibly can! Of course, if you think you’ve already made the best darned homebrew game you can, you can actually send that in too. Here’s their statement on what happens when you send in your games:
They don’t have to be new games – if you’ve already released a game onto the homebrew scene, feel free to submit it for the competition. We’re not after exclusive publication rights either. If your game’s one of the lucky winners, you can still distribute it on the net and issue updated releases. In fact, if you’ve already written a game, entering the competition will be no effort at all!
Now, if you’re wondering about the prizes for this game-making competition, the company is giving away 50 DS Datel goodie packs for the winners, each one worth £ 100 /US $ 180. There’s also a possibility that they might bundle your game in with future versions of their products, helping to spread your name among homebrewers and fans of Datel products alike. Looks like a good promo for free stuff.
If you’re thinking of entering, feel free to check out the source link for instructions on sending in your game. Good luck, homebrewers!
