Hotline Miami: 10 Year Anniversary Level Design Challenge Event

  / discord   Join to participate

To celebrate the ten year anniversary of Hotline Miami (2012), we are hosting this level rave from September 24rd to October 21st.

Participants are allowed to make one or more levels based in the theme of the first Hotline Miami;
using pre-prepared furniture, tiles, enemies and other assets to recreate that feel.

Submitted levels will be compiled into a campaign by the judges — all participants will be rightly credited on the Steam Workshop page.
(A folder of the campaign will also be posted for non-Steam users).


JUDGES: CastleHearth#3638, Toxic Coffee#5360, Perforator#2228.
