Prizes
This year, contest partner HTC is providing 10 of their Vive Flow VR headsets to the top winners of the 2023 Film Club. One of the lightest VR headsets currently on the market that only requires a single USB-C connection and a Bluetooth-connected smartphone to be used, the Vive Flow is one of the most portable VR options available. Once connected to the Vive app store, you can enjoy calming meditation experiences, explore virtual lands, play games, and watch movies. Although it can’t be used to explore Decentraland, it still makes a pretty cool prize! The top 3 winners will also receive MANA prizes in addition to a Vive Flow VR headset.
In addition to the above prizes, the top 10 winners will also be featured on Decentraland’s Twitter. All top submissions will appear in the special video being prepared for Decentraland’s 3rd Birthday on February 20, so be sure to create something awesome to share with the rest of the community!
