In anticipation of its release, the development team is holding a fun little competition of sorts this weekend that starts today at 12:00 PM EDT. All you have to do is download the demo, or purchase the game for just $14.99 and get the Early Access versuib, and you can start participating. Check out the video announcement, a list of prizes, and how to enter below.

First off, let's talk about how to enter this thing:

It’s simple! just follow these interesting and awesome steps:

Find some friends or play alone, you can play 1, 2, 3 or 4 players. Download the demo or get the early access version of FORCED HERE Complete at least one trial in the campaign. Start streaming, it's very easy in FORCED see info here. The game will only commit scores to the tournament highscore if you are streaming (Limits cheating). Get the best possible survival time, in the survival mode. Simple right? :)
