Among them, for example, there is the Norse Viking simulator, the cooperative isometric horror Njorun’s Will, the three-dimensional platformer Holmgang: Memories of the Forgotten, made in the style of the classic Okami, a strategy with a combat system from the “Space Rangers” Singular Space and dozens more amazing games.
In the next stage — the semifinals — from 70 to 80 games will be held. The jury of the competition will decide who gets into it. It includes about 40 representatives of those companies that are engaged in publishing and producing games.
User voting is also taking place within the framework of the competition. Any user of the Network can leave a “like” to the game they like. At the end of the contest, the game that won the most votes will be marked as the best project according to the audience.
The names of the games that will become semi-finalists will be announced in early April. They will already have to “fight” for getting into the finals. The end of the competition is scheduled for the first of May.
