Games IndieCade Awards: Good, Clean Fun
Posted by The Stranger Testing Department on Wed, Oct 12, 2011 at 2:10 PM
The IndieCade 2011 awards were announced over the weekend, and Fez picked up both the Grand Jury and Story World Awards, despite not having been released yet (they're now looking at early 2012). It's an amazing 2-D/3-D mashup that pretty much makes older 3-D platformers obsolete, and we look forward to its eventual launch on Xbox LIVE Arcade.
Other winners include Deepak Fights Robots, The Swapper and The Depths to Which I Sink. The Trailblazers Award went to girl-game pioneer Megan Gaiser. Check out the Finalists list for a nice, long look at the state of indie games in 2011 (spoiler alert: it's awesome).
Something we did not know existed: the Kiss Controller. Button mashing! Tongue bowling!
The Stranger Testing Department is Rob Lightner and Paul Hughes.
