<\/p>\n

\n Grand Prize<\/strong>
\n \u3000 <\/div>\n
\nThe Grand Prize winner will be selected based on recommendations from the development team and scenario writer Maki Ono. A special story inspired by the winning work will be written by Maki Ono and implemented in the game.\n <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n Artist Award<\/strong>
\n \u3000<\/div>\n
\nOne or more works will be selected for the “Artist Award” through judging by the artists of Chill with You: Lo-Fi Story.
\nElements inspired by the winning illustrations, such as outfits, accessories, hairstyles, scenery, and character movements, may be implemented in the game. For this contest, at least one outfit will be implemented based on the Artist Award-winning works.<\/p><\/div>\n

Elements inspired by the winning illustration, such as outfits, accessories, and scenery, will be implemented in the game.
\nIf it is difficult to implement items that closely resemble those depicted in the winning illustration, we may instead create and implement original elements inspired by the artwork.
