'Human: Fall Flat' (ALL) Kicks Off Competition With $10,000 Grand Prize

Human: Fall Flat is a quirky, open-ended, physics-based, third-person puzzle and exploration game set in surreal, floating dreamscapes.

Your goal is to escape the dreams of falling by solving puzzles with nothing but your wits and physics.

Human Fall Flat is a surreal physics puzzle game in which players are tasked with helping Bob (a builder – but not *that* one) escape his surreal dreamscapes. The world of Bob’s dreams are built on his daily experiences, hopes, fears and memories, crafted into nightmarish puzzles by the nefarious dream maker.

At its heart, it’s a game which will make you laugh. Bob is a human. No hero, no super powers. Bob’s journey is as random as it is surreal – with no fixed solutions to the obstacles he must overcome. Taking the form of open-ended sandbox levels in which players can experiment with solutions, Bob must traverse this beautiful yet deadly world in a bid to understand what’s powering his dreams.

No Brakes Games and Curve Digital are proud to announce the second-ever level-building contest for the beloved multi-platform physics-based puzzler, Human: Fall Flat. This contest is themed around 'Sports Day' with a grand prize of $10,000 USD to whoever produces the best level, judged by Human: Fall Flat’s development team.

This contest was first devised to reward the growing Human: Fall Flat community for all the inventive, imaginative and frankly jaw-dropping levels they were producing for the Unity-powered hit. To stand a chance of taking home the gold medal for the latest competition, the prospective winner will need to ensure their level offers replayability and provides opportunities for compelling local co-op and online multiplayer play.

If you’ve yet to enter the world of Human: Fall Flat's Steam Workshop, check out this handy guide which offers help to get any budding creator started on the road to victory.  The winner will not only receive $10,000, but will also see their level released in a new content update for all versions of Human: Fall Flat (PC, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch) later this year. All entries must be submitted by 1st March, 2020 via Steam Workshop.

This contest follows hot on the heels of last year’s competition won by Święty Krab and Gotcha, both of whom bagged $10,000 each for their levels ‘Thermal’ and ‘Factory’ respectively. Both levels are available for all to play on the Steam Workshop right now and will be released as part of the base game across all PC and console platforms in 2020.

"I'm surprised to see how quickly another competition is coming,” said Workshop Competition #1 winner Tyler Ehninger (Gotcha). “It will be great to see the other amazing creators who did so well in the first round have another opportunity to showcase their talents, and to see a lot of new creators join us.”

“I had no experience with 3D modeling before 2019, so really these competitions can be won by anybody! And the world of sports offers so many possibilities, I can already imagine how many amazing different level entries there are going to be," he added.

Players control Bob’s basic movement, but operate his arms independently, making his journey haphazard, hilarious and fraught with danger. Bob can pull stuff. He can push stuff. He can kick stuff. He can carry stuff. He can climb stuff. He can break stuff. And he can use stuff on other stuff to make other stuff happen.

Along the way, players will learn more about the human condition – and maybe something about themselves, too.

Will you try to open that mysterious door, or would you rather see how far you can throw a speaker set out that window?

Human: Fall Flat is currently available on Android, iOS, Switch, PS4, Xbox One and PC.
