1st prize $100,000 Ad spend APP INSTALL CAMPAIGN

What does this mean?

If only it was easier to port to UWS :confused: so much of the code needs to be changed, even to test the builds is harder. The whole process is so annoying.

Already applied. Game is ported too, waiting for submission. Can I submit my game to Windows Store before I get an answer from you about if my “Step 1” application is accepted?

6

Did you try IL2CPP? We use exact same class libraries as any other Unity platform in that case, so you wouldn’t have to change all your code.

Would have been better if this counted also for new games and developers only needed a previous game with 10.000 (or more) downloads.

Also i do not really understand why Unity and Microsoft are doing so often promotions like this, but support for UWS is still lacking a lot, e.g. no Unity Ads Support.

Btw, it’s possible to apply for “Step 2” on the site. Is this intended?

Can I please get an answer if I can applly for Step 2 without getting an answer from Step 1 application?

10

The page says you must have passed Step 1 first.

11

Yes but the site also lets you apply for Step 2. I’m confused because of that.

Hi, this means if you win 1st place Microsoft will give you $100K worth of advertising spend to help you get installs.

Please submit form 1 too before submitting to form 2. We will then confirm if you can continue onto step 2 if you qualify for the challenge. many thanks

16

No, Please submit form 1 too before submitting to form 2. many thanks

The submission deadline is Feb 2017, so if we can manage to get more than 10000 downloads before the deadline, maybe we can to submit the game then… Or can’t we?
