At the start of the night we will announce the winning teams as voted by the judges. We will only announce the top 5 teams publicly and highlight the teams selected to continue working on their games with University incubation space provided + fully funded trip to exhibit at PAX. We are aiming to begin the presentation of awards at 6pm so please arrive on time.
We also have surprise awards outside of the main awards, where recipients will be awarded official certificates from the University. For example, we have an award for 'best game soundtrack'.
The game showcase will also run throughout the night, you may bring your own laptop or connect to one of the displays in the room. The game showcase booths will be on a first come first serve basis so please try to arrive early to select your desired location. Please ensure at least 1 member of your team is present to showcase your game on the night. You are free to showcase your game and try other games all throughout the night except during the official presentation times. Please use this oppurtunity to network with other teams and provide feedback as we hope many of you will continue to work on your games regardless of the results.
We will post further details as we receive them. For now, please let me know any questions you may have by replying to this thread of contacting me at karlos.ishac@sydney.edu.au
All the best.
