Here’s your chance to submit your games or apps to the Windows Phone Store and Windows Store and win up to USD$10,000 in the Windows Game Developer contest.

Home – Windows offer for Unity developers

Have you recently developed apps for the Windows Phone or Windows ecosystems? Do you have a great app that needs additional exposure? Would you like an opportunity to get technical consultation sessions from experts?

If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then take part in the Windows Game Developer contest.

All you need to do is publish your best apps and games in the Windows Phone Store or the Windows Store before March 20. The submissions can be original games or existing games ported from other platforms.

A Microsoft panel will judge your submissions on quality, creativity and technical excellence. The first-prize winner will receive USD$10,000. The second-prize winner will receive USD$5,000 and the third winner up will get USD$3,000. In addition, 10 people will be awarded “honorable mentions and receive USD$1,000 each.

The fun doesn’t end there. A partnership with Global Game Jam, a popular worldwide game hackathon, offers you a chance to win even more rewards. If you haven’t participated in the Jam before, click here to find an event near you.

As a developer, you can also enter your Game Jam project in the Windows Game Developer Contest and earn extra bonuses to redeem at DVLUP.com or devcenterbenefits.windows.com.
