Slamdance Guerilla Gamemaker Finalists
The 2007 Slamdance Guerilla Gamemaker Competition, which runs alongside the Slamdance Film Festival, has announced this year’s finalists across “three broad categories” including a $5,000 Grand Jury prize for the top developer. Slamdance’s GGC will take a look at 14 independently designed games – some of which may be familiar, like flOw and Plasma Pong. Check out the site for links to the other choices, some of which are playable right now. The festival takes place in Park City, Utah, from January 18-27, and sounds like a great booster shot to the over-marketed, suit-infested world of mainstream game development:
“The type and standard of creativity we are seeing at Slamdance Games is akin to the trail blazing days of independent filmmaking, a time that artists reacted with more imagination and against the generic fare of the movie studio.”
Imagination FTW, y’all!
