What sort of games do you want to see in your car? Your idea could end up in a BMW.
. The angle is that the in-car games could go a long way to keep passengers entertained during waiting periods such as EV charging which can take upwards of 30 minutes or more depending on the vehicle and station. This new in-car gaming hub keeps things simple by allowing players to join in by scanning a QR code and using their smart phones as controllers, and now you have a chance to contribute a gaming idea to it.
The AirConsole games tend to lean more toward the casual side, easy to pick up and play rather than more in-depth AAA experiences. For example, one of the games confirmed to be available on the service iswhich has two or more players working together to solve puzzles. There will be solo-player games available as well, but a full list wasn't provided at the time.
BMW announced that it, along with AirConsole, is reaching out to the global game development community and hosting a competition. Contestants will submit game ideas and concepts via thestarting today through June 8th, 2023 and judges will chose the best four. The individuals behind each winning concept will be award 5,000 euros—roughly $5,290. The funds are meant to go toward the development of prototypes for the game concepts.
It sounds like a pretty neat way to help some budding indie game developer get their start and it has our creative gears turning a bit too. What if there was a one vs. four game called"Don't Touch the Stereo" done in a cool tower defense style? Perhaps an arena style fighting game loosely based on the road trip classic"slug bug"? We have to imagine a Mario Kart style racing game would do nicely too.
