Atlus and Old School Games are currently running a “ Ways to Die” contest for their upcoming 3rd person shooter God Mode. The contest involves you coming up with new ways to “die.” While technically when you play God Mode you are already dead, this does not stop the creators from coming up with cool ways to off your character. Atlus and Old School Games are asking for your help!
The best way to win this death contest is by making the Old School Games team laugh or cringe! This is your chance to get creative people! You have to hurry though. The contest will end at 11:59 pm PT Friday January 11, 2013. Winners will be announced on January 15, 2013 on the contest page. The winning entries will be selected and recorded for inclusion in the game. Or as Atlus put it, “Submissions that make the Old School Games team laugh or cringe more than others will be selected and recorded by the hilariously annoying Spirit Guide for inclusion in the game”
Some entries already received:
“Bright skies illuminated the area around you as you happily walk downtown towards a friend’s house, having been called over for a LAN party of a new game. Little did you know that they instead had a birthday party planned for you. A birthday which was only a few days away. Too bad for you, the truck carrying your birthday cake didn’t know this fact, as you were struck and killed in a messy surprise. Coincidentally, your wife who is inside the birthday cake at this time will know you died before almost anyone else.”
“As a young man on the internet you decided to take part in the growing craze known as “No Shave November”. You dabbled in many tonics and gels to help your manly chin wig grow. Pills, Radiation, even the dark arts were all used to help your hairy cause. By the end of the month you had grown the most wondrous soup catcher the world had ever seen. Growing all the way down past your feet. As you hurried down the stairs to photograph your creation, you stepped on your beard, tripped and snapped your neck.”
If you think you can do this or that you have a chance of winning, then enter. The contest page contains full rules and legal information.
