Russians at IGF!

    The other day, the main indie game festival Independent Games Festival has summed up the Student Showcase nomination .
    Last year, our country was represented by the sensational in the West HammerFall (HammerFight) authored by Konstantin Koshutin , who had already managed to go on sale and win the laurels of the best domestic indie from many players :)

    But this year there were some surprises, that is, Russians. The experimental game of Konstantin Gominyuk ( site ) under the uncomplicated name Mi ( download ) was nominated for Student Showcase, but, to my great regret, could not stand the pressure of the strongest competitors, among which there is the well-known ASCIIp0rtal in the habrasociety .

    Nevertheless, Madame Fortune did not pass our compatriot (to hell, Ukraine and Russia fraternal countries) - the game Mi was mentioned by the jury of the festival as exemplary and was included in the list of recommendations. At previous festivals, the list included indie monsters such as Portal and flOw .

    There is reason for joy, I think :)

    Well, out of 190 participants in the Student Showcase of the current IGF (against 145 games of last year's festival), only 10 projects received their awards. The list of winners is available atofficial site , with a list of finalists - in the same place .
