“ The first-ever Cookie Run Costume Contest begins! „
The Cookie Run Costume Contest was an online contest first announced by Devsisters in October of 2019, as part of Cookie Run: OvenBreak's third anniversary celebrations. This contest focused on Cookie Costume creation, where fans of Cookie Run: OvenBreak would create a Costume of their desired Cookie, with the winning design being integrated into the game. Potential rewards also included a visit to Devsisters HQ in Seoul, $1,000,000 KRW, and in-game rewards like Jelly Sets and Crystals.
The contest unfolded in three phases: a submission period, an internal screening, and a final community vote. During the submission period, fans submitted their designed Costumes via Google Forms. Once submissions closed, the Devsisters team conducted an internal screening, selecting eight Costumes for the final round based on originality, concept, and design. After the internal screening, the contest moved to the community vote phase, where Cookie Run: OvenBreak players voted for their favorite Costume from the finalists. This voting took place in-game, with players receiving Crystals for voting.
The winner of the Cookie Run Costume Contest was the artist jeny제니, where their designed Costume for 
Sea Fairy Cookie was integrated into the game as 
Luminous Coral.

Trivia[]
Comparison image between jeny제니's rendition, and the finalized rendition for Luminous Coral.
- The original version of
Luminous Coral created by jeny제니 differs slightly from the finalized rendition by the Devsisters team for its implementation in Cookie Run: OvenBreak. These differences are minor, often involving reduced detail to better suit the game's more simplistic art style. - Cookie Run Costume Contest is the first and currently only contest relating to the creation and integration of Cookie Costumes.
- According to CM Mic Mac, this was a heavily requested contest from fans during the last year, and as such, the team decided to put it as part of the third anniversary celebrations.
- Millennial Tree Cookie has the highest amount of notable Costumes from this contest, having six Costumes in total, with one being the finalist, and five being in the honorable mentions list. Following this is Marshmallow Cookie with three notable Costumes.
