Got “Best Use of Theme”

10 04 2008

Last monday JIG announced the results for CGDC5, and (drums rolling) Pieces didn’t win but instead got the prize for “Best Use of Theme”. YAY!

As mentioned in the comments, I really really really didn’t expect to win anything, mostly due to how buggy the game was on release. But I just got an email from Jay saying that I had the most updates, or err.. “upgrades” *winkwink*, on my game than the rest of the contestants and that adds my score on the theme category. I’m not sure if that’s a good idea to do for any other competition :p. But I’m happy, and very honored.

Feedbacks were great, and even for version 1.3 I had the credits changed mentioning my thanks to the JIG audience that literally beta test my game. How embarrassing, they’re supposed to just play not beta test :( .

Congrats to the other contestants (even the ones who didn’t get to the top 10), all of the games were great!
