indiePub announces 2011 Independent Propeller Awards semi-finalists (and Honorable Mentions)
After several days playing and debating the entries, indiePub has narrowed the field of potential Independent Propeller Award winners to 24 semi-finalists.
All of the semi-finalists' entries are now being played by an elite panel of judges who will rate the games to help with indiePub's final selections for each category:
- Grand Prize
- Best Art
- Best Audio
- Best Design
- Technical Excellence
- Unity Development Award
- Intel Innovation Award
The finalists will be announced March 4, 2011, and winners will be announced at indiePub's first Independent Propeller Awards ceremony at 5 p.m. (CST), Sunday, March 13, 2011, at the Day Stage in the Austin Convention Center in Austin, TX (USA). It is in conjunction with the South by Southwest 2011 ScreenBurn Arcade taking place March 11 through 13, 2011.
indiePub plans to send either the developer or two representatives from each winning development team to South by Southwest to accept their prize and to demonstrate their game in the indiePub booth (so all semi-finalists should start thinking about their potential trip to Austin, TX).
I know, enough already with the blah blah. Below is the list of Semi-Finalists followed by a list of Honorable Mentions (games are listed in no particular order and developer information may not be complete).
