Deadlines
You have from now until noon PST on October 22nd, 2021 to create a spooky new world or avatar, upload it to VRChat, and submit it here so our judges can check it out.
Submission Requirements
All content submitted must make use of VRChat SDK3 to be qualified for entry. World submissions must use VRCSDK3 for Worlds and Avatar submissions must use VRCSDK3 for Avatars. While the use of more advanced features within the SDK (such as Udon and Avatars 3.0) is recommended, it is not required.
There isn’t a requirement for your content to be cross-platform compatible, but it will play a very strong role in the judgment criteria.
If you’re unfamiliar with those more advanced systems, here are some useful links to check out:
- What is Udon?
- What is Avatars 3.0?
All submissions must consist entirely of original assets and the submitter must own or otherwise have the right to use the content submitted (including all component parts). By making a submission in this contest, you are warranting that you own or have a right to use the content in your submission and that your usage of such content does not violate or infringe upon the intellectual property rights of any third party. For further information, please carefully read our Contest Terms and Conditions*.
Spookality Home
We'll be updating the VRChat Home on October 29th to showcase the winning content. So you will be able to explore and enjoy it over the Halloween weekend.
