​🫧 Design The Sandbox Studio agent persona

​Every great AI sidekick needs a visual identity. Right now, The Sandbox Studio doesn't have one and we want you to design it.

​Meet the (future) companion living inside Studio: the little presence that helps you build your game, answers your questions, and cheers you on when your build finally runs. Think distinctive, expressive, and instantly recognizable. Think your design, everywhere in our product.

​$3,000 up for grab

​🎨 Design the form factor for the TSB Studio companion: 5 variations/expressions of the same character

​🎯 Keep it TSB-friendly: should feel approachable and fit a clean, modern UI (a small companion that lives in the corner of your screen) voxel or not, smooth, painterly, whatever style you want, as long as it feels like ours

​Submission Terms

​By submitting an entry, you retain ownership of your work unless selected as the winner. The winning entry's design becomes the full property of The Sandbox, including the right to modify, animate, rig, and use it commercially. No further compensation or attribution required beyond what's stated in this challenge. AI-assisted designs are welcome; you must hold the rights to any AI-generated elements you use (e.g., via the tool's terms of service or your own inputs). The Sandbox reserves the right not to select a winner if, in its judgment, no submission meets the creative, brand, or product requirements of the challenge. In that event, no prize will be awarded, and The Sandbox may extend, reopen, or run another round of the challenge.
