Mighty No. 9 Robot Design Contest Return!!

Hey Mighties!

After the success of the Robot Design Contest we held during last year’s

Mighty Month (which garnered 38,225 views, 1309 comments, and 239 robot entries)
we decided to hold another contest for this year’s Mighty Month 2!

 
 

 
 
In the world of Mighty No. 9, powerful robots compete with each other, displaying their extraordinary abilities in the ruthless “Battle Colosseum”.
 
Beck and his siblings, the Mighty Numbers, are only one of the many teams vying for domination in this arena. But what about the other teams? Using the Mighty Beckers’ creative power, let’s all design new robots to enter the arena, and broaden the universe of Mighty No. 9!
 
Last year’s contest showed us that robots based on countries or areas in the world were especially popular, so this time we decided to base the contest around that theme. We have split the world into 3 different areas, and will be accepting submissions for a different area each week!


 
 

 

Show us what a robot from your hometown or home country would look like! Or show us a robot
designed based on your favorite country in the world!
The Battle Colosseum features Team Battles, so it might be a good idea to work together and design a team that represents your own country!

Once again we will be covering the walls of our office with robot designs that stand-out as the best of the best!
 
*Please keep in mind that neither Beck nor the Mighty Numbers will fight in the Battle Colosseum in the actual Mighty No. 9 game.

Design Hints
 
 
 
・Try thinking of contextual ideas: a rival for No. 1, something based off of No. 2, etc.
 ・"Fire + Gun", "Lightning + Chain"... try thinking up combinations of elements and other motifs.
 ・Just like the Mighty Numbers, try thinking up a bunch at the same time in a team!
 

Well, that should explain everything for this contest. The team is looking forward to seeing what you come up with this time!
