Introducing the Player2 AI Mod Bounty Program
$3000 cash reward for building engaging AI NPC mod
A new era of gaming is upon us—and it’s being powered by indie developers. At Player2, our mission is simple: build, play, and share AI NPC mods and games. Today, we’re thrilled to launch a special AI Mod Bounty Program in addition to our player2 Game Jams, offering cash rewards to the first creators who bring truly engaging AI NPCs to specific, community-voted games.
Why AI NPC Mods Matter
AI NPCs are more than just scripted bots—they can react, converse, and even drive emergent gameplay that keeps you coming back for more. But too often, AI characters feel like stand-alone novelties rather than fully integrated parts of the gaming experience. We believe:
AI should serve the game, not the other way around.
Indie developers—not faceless algorithms—will shape the next generation of player experiences.
Great AI NPC mods can breathe new life into beloved titles, creating fresh stories and challenges.
By incentivising creative modders, we accelerate the pace of innovation and reward those who build rich, safe, and sustainable AI-driven experiences.
Our Proven Track Record
Some of our most successful creators have already demonstrated what’s possible:
DeltaBlade (Bannerlord): ChatAi brings AI-driven conversations to Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord, enabling NPCs to respond dynamically based on their personality, traits, and in-game context.
Gerik (Rimworld): Have you ever wondered what your colonists think about their daily lives? With EchoColony, you can talk to them directly.
Conczin (Minecraft): In MCA Reborn, say goodbye to lifeless villagers—Minecraft Comes Alive Reborn turns them into chatty, marryable, and even hireable companions for a true RPG experience!
TartaricAcid (Minecraft): Touhou Little Maid added cute maids to Minecraft, who can help with battles, farming and other tasks.
Each of these mods not only crossed $100 in monthly revenue share—but far exceeded it—proving that players crave intelligent, interactive NPCs. For more details about these games and suggestions from the developers about how to build an immersive AI NPC mod, read this blog post.
The Bounty Program: How It Works
To reward and accelerate the next wave of AI NPC mods, we’re putting $3,000 on the table for the first mod that hits $100 in Player2 revenue share within any one month. Here’s the rundown:
Games List (Will be continuously updated)
Undertale
Terraria
Gmod (Garry’s Mod)
Skyrim
Fallout
Lethal Company
Sim4
Stardew Valley
Project Zomboid
Prize
$3,000 awarded to the first qualifying mod on each game.
Bounty is paid out once your mod reaches $100 in revenue share within a single month.
Qualification Criteria
Approval by Player2: We’ll verify that your mod is safe, fun, and built on our APIs.
API Integration: Must leverage Player2’s SDK for chat and in-game actions.
Developer Ownership: You retain full rights, still qualify for the existing revenue share programs from us and commit to ongoing updates.
User Interaction: NPCs must be able to chat with players and perform at least basic in-game actions, with more advanced features added over time.
First to Threshold: Bounty goes to the first qualifying mod per game. Every other mod/game still qualifies for the $500 top-up when they hit $50 in revenue share within a single month.
Launch Date
The program kicks off today, July 12, 2025.
