A contest for heroes

Hi!

I want to show that there are still heroes and heroines out there.

Because of that, I am searching for people that can beat the game The Planet of the Vicious Creatures.

I will give 2 prizes, and the rules to win them are:

1. The game must be streamed using Steam Broadcasting and the broadcast made public. I have to witness the streaming. The date and hour will be arranged with me. I will do my best to adapt to any hour.
2. There will be 2 prizes:
2.1 If you beat the game, but you lose one or more lives, I will gift you one Steam game of your choice of no more than 30 $.
2.2 If you beat the game without losing any life, I will gift you one Steam game of your choice of no more than 60 $.
3. I will add both players to the credits in the game, as the two first people beating the game.
4. You have as many opportunities as you like, but only one each week. That is, if you broadcast one Monday, you will have to wait until the next Monday to try again.

The contest will go on until the 2 prizes are given.

We have a dedicated discussion in the game's Community Hub for this.

Thanks!
Jorge
