SYNCARNATIONSTUDIO
Your wildest build. Your fastest run. Your best moment.
Play the free demo and show us what you’ve got.
Enter one category or all four.
One entry per category. A different video for each.
Share your video with the world.
Gameplay, builds, guides, challenges, reviews, and funny moments: make a video centered on Ballistic Brews.
The eligible video with the highest verified view count at the end of the contest wins.
View-count deadline: October 26, 2026 at 10:00 AM PDT. Counts will be recorded at or around this time.
Artificial views, bots, and purchased or manipulated engagement are not permitted.
Invent something we haven’t seen before.
Combine characters, vehicles, weapons, items, and synergies into a creative, powerful, ridiculous, or unexpected build.
The strongest build isn’t necessarily the most creative. Surprise us.
Beat Difficulty 4. Then beat the clock.
Compete for the fastest verified Difficulty 4 completion time using the Ballistic Brews in-game run timer.
Record the entire run continuously, from the beginning through the D4 victory screen. Keep the final completion time visible. The in-game timer determines your official time.
Bugs and exploits are allowed if achievable in the official, unmodified public Demo without external tools that alter gameplay.
Not allowed: mods, cheat software, modified game files, developer/debug tools, memory editing, or external gameplay-altering tools.
Break our game. Just don’t modify it.
Make Ballistic Brews look absolutely ballistic.
Create an edited 15–60 second video: chaotic moments, ridiculous builds, close escapes, spectacular failures. Make it yours.
Use cuts, captions, commentary, sound effects, memes, reactions, and music to bring your moment to life.
Views don’t matter. Views, likes, followers, and subscriber counts do not affect judging.
