This isn't just about showing off your creative flair; it's a technical challenge with strict parameters. To participate, you'll need to work within a compact 12x12 block footprint, with a height limit of either 12 or 24 blocks. The goal is to create something that feels at home in the Neon City or a distant starbase, focusing purely on block-based architecture without the help of decorations, liquids, or VFX. It’s a return to pure building fundamentals that tests how much personality you can cram into a limited space.
The stakes for this contest are high for both collectors and aspiring level designers. Beyond the 2,000 Credit prize for the top three builds, the developers have hinted that winning entries could be repurposed as biome props or decorations for Neon City. This is a rare opportunity to have your personal aesthetic become a permanent part of the Trove landscape.
How to Enter and Win
Submissions are being handled through the official Discord in the #🚀space-innovation-contest channel. If you aren't confident in taking a top spot, there is still a reason to participate: every valid entry is entered into a raffle for 500 Credits. Make sure your blueprints are finalized and submitted before the April 28, 2026, deadline to be eligible for the rewards.
