Contest Brief

The deliverable must be a 1024x1024 png image, no transparency, full square (NO rounded corners).

The game is a bundle of mini-games for 2 players on the same screen. Attaching some screenshots.

The graphics in the game are utterly minimalistic. It's intended to be so, to have the game weight less and to be able to add more minigames easily. I may change the screenshots later. I don't know if the icon should be minimalistic as well.

The icon should show that it's a game which can be played by 2 people on the same device because the game aims to catch searches like "2 player games", "games for 2 players", "games for couples", "party games" and similar requests. A single person can't really play it, and there is no online multiplayer. It's a kind of game you only play in a company of friends or with family. Most of the fun comes from the fact that the hands of other players actually get in your way, and sometimes quarrels arise and people start pushing each other away from the device or catching each other's hands - this tends to end in laughter. The icon could give a hint to that though I'm not sure.

I'm setting contest duration to 30 days so as to be able to run 2-3 days long performace tests with the game to see which version of the icon generates more downloads of the game. Every 2-3 days I'll take 4 icons which I like and put them into an "experiment" on GooglePlay, displaying each of these icons with 25% probability to Android users. I will give 1 star to the icons which I don't like (and which I won't even test) and 2 or more stars depending on how those good icons performed on Google Play. I will generally be able to give a rating only several days after you submit your icon. If you don't like this procedure and don't want your icon to be displayed on Google Play for even 2-3 days at 25% probability, don't submit anything.

Please don't include any watermarks on the file - I can't run any tests with them. It is a guaranteed contest and I only need 1 final icon, I will pay for the icon with the best performance.

Employer Feedback

“A great artist! He submitted a lot of variants of the icon, all of which were better than most of other entries in the contest. So, essentially, this was a contest just between the versions this artist submitted. I'll be delighted to hire him for more projects in the future.”

    Уважаемая Ирина, я обратил внимание на то, что в течении уже достаточно длительного времени Вы тестируете на странице своей игры одну и ту же иконку. Я понимаю, что Вы можете быть сильно заняты на основной работе, но согласитесь, что для чистоты "эксперимента" было бы неплохо пробовать разные варианты. Если Вы продолжите отсеивать неудачные работы, и выделять удачные это поможет фрилансерам создать для Вас именно то, что нужно. Успехов Вам в Вашем нелёгком деле!)

      Здравствуйте, я тестирую разные. Там с определенной вероятностью показывается одна из иконок, но один раз показав кому-то, GooglePlay сохраняет ID пользователя и всегда показывает ему уже одно и то же. Поэтому вы видите все время одну.
