Dear Whirlpool Surfers and Aquarium Caretakers, Sipho team would like to invite you take an opportunity to design Sipho Layouts and have them immortalized in the game! We have been expanding underwater world of Sipho and now the time has come to start populating it. The future non-linearly traversable areas are in need of habitant designs for all breeds. Larger Saenus Beefuorus, tiny Advenas and both big and small Buginis, Crat'han and Vagorians - all will be encounterable in future areas. We could and will design many enemy Layouts ourselves, but we would like to ask for your help first and have your creations floating in Sipho world. Forever. Layouts are data structures we use in Sipho to define what Zooids have been grown where. When you grow a new Spike or a Claw, your Layout is modified to resemble what you have grown. Something like a recipe to grow your Sipho. We can save and use Layouts to define enemies that you encounter in different areas or restore your Sipho when loading the game. Manual Layout management is possible through Aquarium game mode and that's where we will ask you to create your event entries.

How to enter:

• Using latest version of Sipho and Aquarium mode take a screenshot of Layout you would like to submit. Feel free to modify the environment keeping Layout clearly distinguishable
• Upload the screenshot to our Discord server's #event-entries channel with following formatting:**Name:** Name of the layout **Author:** Optional author name. Leave it out if you want to remain anonymous **Value:** Layout value - shown at the top of Growth mode **Description:** Optional Layout description **Layout data:** || layout data ||
• In Aquarium, export the Layout text data as shown in picture below and paste it on layout data. Please keep data between double || marks so it remains spoilered. If Layout data is too long, submit the entry without it and upload layout data as a text file in following message.
  

Layout requirements:

• Layout should not mix breeds or contain breedless Zooids. For example: Advena layout can contain Spikes and Zenoplates, but not Claws (mixing breeds) or Swarmers (breedless zooid). For this event we want only pure-breeds to fill basic environments.
• Layout value should be under 150 nutrition. You can see current Layout nutrition value at the top of Growth screen, under the Sipho name.
• Layout should be created using Growth mode of latest available version and should contain valid positions and rotations
• Layout should be created by you or the author rights have been passed to you by the original author
• Layout should not be already in game or already be a valid submission prior to yours
