Hey guys! I am making a post for Gjappy, who is super-excited to announce an all-new screenshot contest!
Gjappy the the Archangel Avatar Ambassador here - Greetings and blessings to you, adventurers! As we start off the new year, Artix Entertainment wants to venture into new adventures!
Galanoth, Alina, and I assembled in the Guardian Tower meeting room after realizing that more adventurers like you know about our awesome games and prosperous worlds!
But when Galanoth saw the "Emergency DragonSlayer Signal" and Alina had to rush off to put out a lab fire, it was up to me to assemble the /party and head into the Dungeon of Instagram.
And for that... I need YOU!
Our mission: to get the best, most action-packed screenshots from any (and all) of our games so they can be posted on Instagram!
Submission Guidelines
Submit up to 2 screenshots from any of our games, including:
AdventureQuest 3D
Any of our mobile games: BioBeasts, BattleGems, Undead Assault, AQ:Dragons
AdventureQuest Worlds
AdventureQuest, DragonFable, EpicDuel
... ANY game Artix Entertainment ever made is eligible!
The deadline to enter is February 3, 2016. Send your screenshots as an attachment or link to: screenshots@battleon.comWinning entries will be posted on the Artix Entertainment Instagram for all to see!
Tips:
Screenshots should not be edited, just a straight, unaltered picture from the game. Winning entries will be posted on the Artix Entertainment Instagram for all to see!
Minimize your in-game chat.
Do not crop your screenshot - send an image of your full game screen in the browser window.
In battlescenes, try to show class skills or monster attacks going off.
If you're taking a cutscene screenshot, appearance counts (so equip your best gear!)
Custom Avatar Rewards
Winners will receive a custom avatar made from AQWorlds art, ready to upload and use on your social media accounts! There will be winners in each game category and, as always, we will reward those entries we like the best or think are super-awesomely-cool!
How to Take a Screenshot
Some of our fellow adventurers who regularly play on their evil toasters, upgraded fridges, phones or tablets might not know how to make screenshots. Don't worry, we've got you covered! Check out my guide on how to take screenshots! or watch Cysero's "how to screenshot" video!
When I was still a noob (O_o) acolyte-angel in AQWorlds I made lots and lots of screenshots of my epic adventures in-game with my friends. I collected around 1.500 screenshots from just playing, meeting people, battling monsters and cool (rare) events! I could write a pretty lore of that in pictures. If YOU have a collection of screenshots, too, then post them on Instagram so we can all see!
If you would like to see more guides? Let me know in the comments section below!
Avatars
I love making avatars (you can see some of them on the staff pages and Lorepedia)... but now I want to branch out and make them for ALL of you to enjoy! Though the screenshot contest winners will get customized avatars, there are a lot more places in the community where we can add in updated avatars, like the official forum and Artix.com!
You can only choose 26 avatars on Artix.com (via this page) and there are mostly AQ classic-related. So why don’t we update it and add at least 10 more avatars from each game?
Let me know on Twitter or in the comments which ones you would like to see added!
PS: Lastly I wanted to say THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH for backing the AQ3D Kickstarter and DOUBLING our goal!! Our Kickstarter backers can also now reap their rewards in AQWorlds! Read here how! AND we are making progress! And we are currently testing pre-beta for members and Kickstarter backers! Just go to www.aq3d.com to play and test!

WEDNESDAY JANUARY 20, 2016
Woah! Woah! What is this Bye-Oh-Beasts? I’m glad you asked! If you don't want to read the whole FAQ, BioBeasts a challenging new free single-player action game for Android and iOS! You are a powerful mutant beast battling through a terrifying laboratory run by merciless mechanical guards. Defend yourself against endless hordes of robots, lab defenses, and hulking bosses as you claw, bite, blast, and bash your way to freedom! Unlock new beasts with unique powers, and upgrade potent mutations to experiment with for endless variety!
Meet the Team
BioBeasts was created mainly by the EpicDuel Team, but nearly everyone at Artix Entertainment had a hand in the project, whether it was contributing artwork, Unity expertise, testing, or simply helping us spread awareness!
Why BioBeasts?
BioBeasts is nearly ready to launch, but we need your help for it to succeed! When we first started BioBeasts, we wanted a way to learn the ropes in Unity and mobile development while incorporating some familiar EpicDuel elements. We knew a huge multiplayer game was out of scope for such a project so we narrowed the focus of the project to an intense, challenging action game with surprising depth.
Our goal with BioBeasts was to create a game that was a counterpoint to the current trend in mobile games that harkens back to a time when games focused on skill and reflexes. BioBeasts captures that classic feel of intense, old-school arcade games that could be understood in seconds, but took days to master. With BioBeasts, there aren’t any timers or energy systems or social gimmicks to interrupt or limit your play that have become so common in the mobile gaming generation. You can play as much as you want, whenever you want!
Bring the THUNDER!
One of the biggest challenges new mobile games face is simply getting the word out! Fortunately, we have many tools at our disposal to extend our reach as far as possible. Did you know you can dedicate your own social media reach to support the BioBeasts game launch? It's super simple and 100% FREE:
Select which social platforms you want to dedicate to the BioBeasts launch:
When the game is ready, we'll smash the GO button and our message will reach tons of players!
Join our ThunderClap campaign now:
BioBeasts? Is that a new game?
You're absolutely right! BioBeasts is a new arcade-survival mobile game from the Epicduel team, coming soon to iOS and Android devices! Control, unlock, and mutate your beasts as you battle to break out of the robot-controlled laboratory. You can keep up to date with all the release news and previews on their website here!
What is ThunderClap?
Thunderclap is a crowd-speaking platform that can help BioBeasts be discovered by thousands of people. For every person that dedicates their social reach to our campaign, when we press the GO button, ThunderClap will blast out a Twitter, Facebook, or Tumblr post from all of us, at the same time, creating a massive wave of attention!
