College students in the United States and Canada with an interest in entering the MMO industry, this one is for you. 38 Studios -- creators of the forthcoming 'Copernicus' MMO -- are inviting aspiring game artists, designers, and programmers to enter their contest, the 2nd Annual Massachusetts Game Challenge. The contest announcement states: "If you are enrolled in college you can win thousands of dollars in prizes by developing a compelling video game featuring our company mascot, Munch. Roll solo or pool your talents into groups of two or three for ultimate game creation results." First prize in the contest brings $1500 per team member, while second prize earns $1000 per team member. Third prize winners get $500 per team member.

Beyond the prize money, the 38 Studios game challenge is a chance to get your work recognized by people in the industry. See the FAQ for the 2nd Annual Massachusetts Game Challenge for more details and take a look at last year's winning submissions for a better idea of what 38 Studios is looking for.

The next step in 38 Studios' unrelenting march towards world domination has come to fruition. They've upgraded their internet digs from the flash page that they've had since they announced the formation of the company, to a slightly more mundane, but eminently more navigable design. We were a bit sad to see that their mascot Munch was relegated to background status, and couldn't eat our cursor as he once did.

On the plus side, there appears to be a small bounty of goodies to be found on the new site. They've got some more pictures of the team, including a shot of big boss Curt Schilling getting the aforementioned Munch tattooed on his bicep. Of course, we will not be sated by shiny new websites and artistic expressions of dedication alone. We have to punctuate this post as we do with most of our other posts about 38 Studios with a demand for more information about Copernicus!
