Building Competitions & Community Events

Learn about the Planet Coaster Haunted House Competition 2017, including rules, winners like Tobeh's 'Demon of the Mountain', and how to participate in community events.

Hey there! So, you're curious about how to get involved in building competitions and community events in Planet Coaster? That's awesome! While the game itself doesn't have a direct 'competitions' tab, the community is super active. Let's look at an example of how these things have worked in the past, like the Haunted House Competition 2017. Frontier Developments, the brilliant minds behind Planet Coaster, announced this competition back on September 27, 2017. It was a chance for players to show off their spooky building skills, and it ran until October 9, 2017. After that, 10 amazing user blueprints were chosen as winners. There were some important rules you had to follow if you wanted to enter: * Blueprints Only: Make sure you're submitting scenery blueprints, not full rides or park files. * No Copyrighted Stuff: Keep it original; no copyrighted materials allowed. * Story Time: Your blueprint description needed to include a story that could be read out during the livestream. Get creative with your lore! * Piece Limits: Try to keep your creations manageable. For this competition, the Haunted House had to be under 4,000 pieces, and you could only use up to 5 different billboard files. This helps make sure they can be showcased properly. * Submission: You had to email a link to your blueprint to [email protected] to be considered. On October 11, 2017, the winners were revealed live by Community Manager Bo De Vries and Communications Manager Zac Antonaci. It was a fantastic showcase of the community's talent! Some of the winners included: * Demon of the Mountain by Tobeh * Haunted Doll House by Chant * Haunted Mansion - Green Hall by TheGreenBear * Haunted Skeleton Manor by Spiralguy * Highmoor Manor by Afgyhi * Spooky Villa by CaptainJelle * Haunted Mansion of the Pumpkin Witch by Anigmandra * Dr Acula's Laboratory by Calvinluttinen * The Haunted Ruins by Coastercad * Dr Winslow Emporium by Duom Keep an eye on the official Planet Coaster channels and community forums. Events like these pop up, and they're a brilliant way to get inspired and share your own creations. Happy building!
