14th Snapmaking Contest - Games that are made with Snapmaker

Do you remember those games that you grew up playing? Do you remember those impressive and exciting projects that you ever made?

In this round, we encourage users to make any game in any form with the help of 3D printing, laser, or CNC. A game can be anything you can have fun with! The game doesn't need to be a game in a common sense. For example, something you make yourself happy, a toy you made for yourself or your family, or an old game you recreate or repair by 3D printing. As many as you can make! Also, as the 7th anniversary theme says, "Growing Together. Making Forever." New project is not a must. Any projects that fit the theme are valid for entry, including old projects.

JUN 1 - JUL 1, 2023
