๐ŸŽƒ Win gaming gear from Logitech G: Community Contest reminder! ๐Ÿ’™

[hr][/hr][h3]๐ŸงŸ The Monster Mansion Community Contest ends on November 30![/h3]

You still have a chance to join the House Flipper 2 Monster Mansion Contest! As always with our contests, this one lasts for about a month, so November 30 is the last day for you to submit your entry!

One of the cool things about this contest is that you don't have to take one of the top spots to receive some epic prizes!
Logitech G sponsors those, and the guys there were nice enough to send us enough shiny gaming gear for us to award the winners, and on top of that, run a raffle for all the participants! Yay!

For all of the rules and information about hopping in, click here: https://mod.io/g/hf2/m/communitycontest



[hr][/hr][h3]๐ŸŽ So what's there to win?![/h3]

[hr][/hr][h3]โ— We also clarified some rules as our community voiced their concerns![/h3]


First of all, we wanted to specify our perspective on content of "violent nature":

"The game should be limiting enough to not let our players go ham with this, but just in case, (as we know how creative you guys can be!) we wanna point out that everything is generally okay EXCEPT bodies/body parts. If you're still worried or not sure if your contest entry might be too brutal, contact @Reczberg through our House Flipper Community Discord, and ask directly!"


Secondly, I'm super glad that we're constantly getting feedback regarding the ruleset for Community Contests.

Proud of you guys! Even though sometimes it's not easy to read through all of the feedback we're getting, we can always count on you when it comes to discussing the future of the game, and the contests as well! I feel like the contests are an awesome journey for both the devs and the community, and I'm glad that I can count on your opinions, especially considering the fact that we don't have a lot of experience with running community events of this caliber. You're awesome! โค๏ธ



[hr][/hr]On a side note, keep in mind that this month is not only the month of one of our most epic contests but also a big month for all the HF1 fans!

Dine Out DLC comes out on November 26, and we cannot wait to see you there, checking out all the fresh possibilities that this DLC brings to the original House Flipper!
