Disney has thrown down the jewel-laden gauntlet to its players prior to the release of the life-sim Dreamlight Valley. The developers are running a competition in the Stardew Valley-inspired game, asking people to send in-game selfies of their avatar, with the winners being the absolute epitome of creativity and originality.
Dreamlight Valley releases on PC on 6 September, but Disney has released an Avatar Designer Tool prior to this, so people can give some real thought about who they want to be in this fantastical universe. With that tool, players are able to create their persona, take a selfie, and hopefully win some prizes.

There will also be 15 runners-up that can compete by completing tasks on Gleam. They will be picked at random and will each receive a key for Disney Dreamlight Valley Founder’s pack – Ultimate Edition on the platform of their choosing.
The prizes on offer are decent, and while the criteria for winning are a little vague (Disney just state they’re looking for creativity and originality), it might be worth unleashing your inner Disney Princess and giving it a go. You can find the avatar design tool on Steam. For the full details of the selfie competition, see the full post by Disney.

Don’t forget that friends are the family you choose. That’s the saying, isn’t it?
