THE OPEN CALL FOR THE ULTIMATE INDIEMASH GAME CONTEST IS OFFICIALLY OPEN

What is the Ultimate IndieMash Game Contest?
The Ultimate IndieMash is a contest for unique playful makers of the world, to present their work to an international audience. Hosted live from Bristol, UK and Enschede, NL, and streamed all over the world, the participants get three minutes each to show their game, interactive project, immersive installation or playful performance, through an online video connection. So you don’t have to travel to participate!
The evening is for them to share their concepts and gain new fans, and at the end of the program, the viewers and a jury of professionals will vote for their favourite project. Besides receiving the Sickest Trophy, the winner of the Ultimate IndieMash will also get a spot at the Overkill Festival 2025!
What are we looking for?
Not only are we looking for the most original, extravagant and alternative playful concepts, the Ultimate IndieMash is also a celebration of diversity within the indie-game community. We strongly encourage applications from candidates who are likely to be underrepresented in the gaming world. From coding mothers to queer visual artists and indigenous storytellers, everyone is invited to show their unique project and creations to our audience online!
How will the evening look?
The Ultimate IndieMash is a two-hour online program, filled with music, playful interactions and of course the gamemakers and their projects! In the first hour, the participants show their work in a 3 minute presentation, that can be as playful as you want! They will get a chance to answer some questions from the audience as well, to explain their projects as well as possible! In the second hour, the participants together with the audience will play some exciting games in which the audience creates prompts, drawings and more for the participants to be creative with! After that, the audience ánd the jury will vote for their favourite project, and at the end of the show the winner will be announced!
When is this all happening?
The application-deadline for the participants is the 30st of March. Afterwards, the Sickhouse team will make a selection of 10 participants to present their projects! These makers will be announced on the 16th of April, and the show itself will take place on the 24th of May!
