An action game following Serious Sam on his bogus detour journey north of Egypt during his First Encounter in Egypt.

Serious Sam Bogus Detour #SERIOUSMOD Competition

Modders, it's time to get serious. Mod DB have teamed up with creators of the newly released Serious Sam Bogus Detour (grab it on Steam) to give you a chance to get your mod featured in the official release of the game! That is of course - if you are serious enough and I can guarantee that isn't the last pun you will see here.

So what's the challenge? Make something seriously awesome (told you). You can make a custom campaign, a horde mode style map or even Serious Sam inspired art, whatever you want - it's entirely upto you.

So there must be some serious prizes right? Right you are. 1st place mod gets eternal fame and a whole bundle of cash, 2nd place walks away with a 1080 NVIDIA GPU and 3rd place gets some logitech gear. The next 20 best mods and art submitted take home a SERIOUS SAM digital game pack, so it's unlikely any serious competitor will leave empty handed.

Your task

We want you to create either a mod for Serious Sam Bogus Detour or art inspired by the game. What you choose to make is entirely upto you, just remember if you are creating a mod the first place to start would be the excellent Hammerwatch mod tool.

How to enter

  1. Make something seriously kickass
  2. Add it to Mod DB via the links to your right:
  3. Make sure it's tagged with #SERIOUSMOD (both mods or artwork)
  4. That's it! You can enter as many times as you want
  5. You can also tweet about your favorite entries to enter a draw to win 1 of 5 Serious Sam game packs picked at random
