Rules

Upload your mod to mod.io, and optionally to Steam Workshop
- (Uploading the mod on mod.io is required so we can contact all winners after the contest ends)
Include the #fp2modcontest tag so the jury can find it
Content limit? Only your imagination!
- (Please be mindful that mods containing harassment, sexual/erotic, or otherwise inappropriate content will not be reviewed)
Already made your mod in an earlier patch? All submissions will be judged equally. However, remember that they still need to be uploaded with a hashtag on mod.io and run with the current version of the game.
What is the jury looking for?
- Creativity, playability, and most importantly, fun! New stories and mechanics? Insane mode? Replace snow with sand? Add dinosaurs? Introduce a swamp with ogres? The Steward would rejoice!
The Jury Squad will include the development team, mod.io representatives, and experienced modders from the modding community.
