The Results of the Space Engineers NVIDIA Ansel Contest

Hello Engineers!

Today, we are excited to announce the winners of our NVIDIA Ansel Contest. I can say that you submitted fantastic creations and my team and I were impressed by the quality and the creativity of the submissions.

Just as a reminder, we launched the NVIDIA Ansel Contest in five different categories and we wanted you to capture the original visual styling and feeling of Space Engineers. You definitely captured it and you even added something on top of it, which made your creations special. The winners are getting 100 in-game Engineer Skin Sets in total as prizes! The contest ran until the end of May 2018, so now it’s time to award the winners!
