 The Theme of The Contest — Miners Icy Lab

Big power demands… big cooling! ❄🧊

Hamster has found an Icy Lab in the deep North, full of amazing ice-cold mechanisms, and thought that this place should now make miners!
✨🧊 Let Them Sparkle! Get inspired by the beauty of ice! Frozen landscapes 💎 and shining crystals… Do you hear the Winter bells calling? ❄

Technical Requirements

Now that you have a clear idea of your miner design, you need to understand the technical criteria for creating a miner!

These requirements are quite simple, check out our Technical Guide for all the necessary information 👇

Style Guidelines

We’ve got all the technical details sorted, but how do you bring that picture-perfect design to life?
Here are the main points you need to follow to make your work of art become a part of RollerCoin forever! 👁👇

Design a Miner!

Literally, your design should take the form of a miner 📼 with a touch of rolling fun.

🔹 Show Your Originality

Your artwork MUST be uniquely yours © – not copied from anywhere else! 🖼️
Avoid imitating past contest winners or borrowing style elements. We want your own creative vision! 🌟

🔹 Keep it Simple and Clear

Make a solid and polished miner design.

🔹 Animation:

Seamless and relevant animations. Each frame should naturally flow from the previous one. And let’s skip the disclaimers – no need to warn about blinking lights. ✨🚫

Here are some winners of the previous Contests, as an example of great design and cool animation, just to get you inspired 😉👇

You can find out more about the criteria by which your miner will be evaluated in our guide here 👇
