Bafta is taking applications for its Young Game Designers competition

Bafta is now taking applications for this year’s edition of its Young Game Designers competition.

The competition, which is designed to inspire and support *** players aged 10-18 who are passionate about creating their own video games, will announce winners later this year in a virtual awards ceremony.

Before then, however, anyone interested has until 5pm on Wednesday, March 12 to submit their entries.

There are two categories in the Young Game Designers competition – Game Making and Game Concept – each of which will have separate awards for 10-14 year olds and 15-18 year olds.

Those wishing to enter the Game Making Award have to submit an original game, either made alone or as a team of up to three people. Entries will be judged on game design, creativity and suitability for the chosen platform.

The Game Concept Award, meanwhile, challenges applicants to submit a new idea for a game (again, either alone or in a team of up to three). Bafta says good drawing skills aren’t necessary to win the competition, because it’s the idea that’s the most important thing.

“Ever thought about making games when you leave school?” Bafta’s website asks. “The competition can help you start making those dreams a reality.

“Are you an aspiring designer? Get inspiration by reading about past winning games and testing out our game idea generator. Be in with a chance of receiving a BAFTA Young Game Designers Award and access to once-in-a-lifetime experiences with top game makers and industry professionals.”
