Hey Creators!

With the Mobile Competition submission deadline just around the corner, we want to make sure you have all the support you need to get your worlds submitted on time.

Important Reminders:

  • Submission Deadline: May 8, 2025 @ 11:45pm (PT) / 1:45am (CT) / 2:45am (ET)
  • Make sure to review the official competition rules and guidelines before submitting your world
  • If you encounter any technical issues during submission, please let us know ASAP so we can assist you

To help with any last-minute questions or concerns, we're creating this thread as a dedicated space for you to ask anything related to submitting your worlds for the competition.

💭 Whether you're wondering about:

  • Technical questions and troubleshooting
  • Submission guidelines and requirements
  • Or anything else that's on your mind

Critical Warning: Publishing a World as Non Discoverable and then switching to Discoverable Automatically Enables Members Only Option in the Desktop Editor

Please be aware that there is currently a bug in the Desktop Editor which can have implications when publishing your world. 

If you have published your world, with Discoverable set to off, setting Discoverable to on in the Publishing modal in the Desktop Editor will automatically switch Members-Only to on. 

Please make sure that you switch Members-Only to off before you publish your update, as judges will not be able to judge your world if it is set to Members-Only, and it must be available to play on mobile.

If you are impacted by this issue please alert us as soon as possible in the submission thread.

 

Good luck with your submissions, and we look forward to seeing your amazing creations!

Hi! I can't get Horizon NPCs to work?

- They both have no avoidance collision (even tried adding a capsule collider to each one) and

-if they can't get to an exact point, they don't seem to know how to stop when they are as close as they can be?

oh wow, that's quite a submission bug - just unpublished and re-published world set to public instead of beta... however, it now isn't allowing for a mobile interaction and wants to pair a headset? 

Actually I just found a mobile bug... I went with a smaller iPhone Pro than the usual Pro Plus, so... on my new phone, it doesn't allow mobile (headset pair only) due to the screen size being not pro-sized? It seems to load on the old iPhone Pro Plus

 

UI for mobile should just scale... 

running into a similar issue.. i see as mobile game on android but iOS says VR only (forces headset pair with iPhone13mini)

I notice that my  Horizon game recording videos on device have no audio though I hear it when I play... Does the Horizon iOS app block audio from being screen recorded?!

Oh No I just noticed that members only bug (I nveer set it to that) and even after unpublishing, the public option still does not appear. What can be done? 

Okay i found a quick fix for the submissions bug: set duplicate project and set to public publish (even though it is still in beta, fixing bugs as basic as Horizon NPCs not behaving properly) 

For the members only bug, I was able to resolve this by duplicating my project and republishing the new one with different settings.

Are you able to record your game audio on iPhone?
