HELP US BUILD BORDERLAND | SUMMER 2026
December 24, 2025

We're building Borderland as a tightly curated 4-hour live game, and we need game designers, partners, volunteers, and vendors to help make it epic.

We need your help for The Beacon's first "Blockbuster" Game.

Borderland | Summer 2026

We are building Borderland as a tightly curated 4-hour live game. Learn more about Borderland.

This one is being shaped with the community.

A FEW ASKS

1) GAME DESIGNERS & GAME DEVS

How do we make this game as epic as possible?

  • You do NOT need to know how to code
  • Inspired by Alice in Borderland
  • Physical, social, strategic, chaotic, cooperative games
  • Crowd-sourced ideas > closed design

2) PARTNERS, VOLUNTEERS, & VENDORS

We need people to help make the event actually happen.

  • Game Designers
  • Vendors (Food, Drink, Merch)
  • Production Designers (Lighting, Sound, Decor…)
  • Platform Developers
  • Social Media Marketing

Our Borderland Playtest in Detroit proved this works.
