As a judge I just want to note that there were so many great games this time around it was hard to see what the clear winners would be. Usually, when judging, you have a general idea but not so this time! Everyone really did a wonderful job and even those who might not have scored highly had interesting takes on ideas or fun bits to them that made them worth checking out. I always love judging events like these because the influx of games into the community, the sharing of ideas and inspiration thrown around is always intoxicating.
Congrats to all the winners, but also to all of those who took part. I know I'm a grump at times during my recordings but just know that I'm proud of anyone who actually released a game for this - it takes SO MUCH to put yourself out there and into a situation where there are so many eyes on you and your creation, and you all deserve a pat on the back for taking part. Thank you so much for sharing your games with us. <3
