About

OUYA is a new kind of game console for the television that brings together an open development experience – where any creator can publish a game to the living room. They want to make gaming and game design accessibly to everyone, which got them thinking about the design elements on their console. Wanting to keep the sprit of freedom and openness going, they are working with BountyHunter to give any creative their shot to be featured on the OUYA console.

Opportunity

You will be creating a design for the background art shown on the console when gamers turn on their system and navigate through all of the different game and system menus. The winning entry will convey what OUYA stands for – openness, freedom, accessibility, and of course, gaming. See the current background and view for gamers using OUYA...
