Constraints
You must design and build your game within the given constraints. The constraints are deliberately chosen to get you considering deeper designs, and to help remove the blank canvas syndrome.
- You muse create a multiplayer game
- It must have at least two players
- It can be cooperative or competitive
- It can be local or online
Advice
It can seem daunting to be given creative constraints and be mandated to create a game within them. Constraints can actually increase your creative output if utilized correctly. Lean into the constraints and think of clever ways to apply the theory.
- Cooperative - The gameplay should encourage and enforce player interactivity
- Competitive - Ensure conflict by giving limited resources and competing objectives
Rules
These rules are steadfast and unbreakable. Abide by them.

- You can only use assets that you have a license to use.
- The majority of game has to be original.
- Respect your team members' roles.
- Keep the scope of the game small - try to focus on a single feature.
