"I saw this billboard. It seemed important.

Now that you have seen it, I know that you also agree.

The task before you now is to act on your muse. Make a video game inspired by your favorite or least favorite billboard, using its image as the title screen. From there, do what you will. 

You have 10 days."

                      - David Wolinsky
