Rev Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Just about 3 months left of 21, time sure is flying. ? There had been digital releases and likely more. (Before they make it into CIB) What say the masses on having two categories to vote on? 1. Physical CIB 2. Digital Maybe more? 3. Best artwork (box cover) 4. Best music 5???? Look at what ZeroPage Homebrew is doing with Atari. https://atariage.com/forums/forum/203-atari-homebrew-awards/ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmadruga Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 I’m all for more categories. I think it’s pretty cool what happens on the Atari side. Maybe we could take a step in that direction, without over-engineering too much. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinjinhawke Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 They even had a live video streaming of the awards show. Cannot wait to see you folks on the red carpet. Were there many digital only released games? Super Pro Gammon, Norsemen ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+intellivotion Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 I would definitely do two separate polls for physical and digital releases. As a collector I would also like to give a vote for the best packaging as well. Just to be clear, the nudes Rev usually tosses in my packages won't influence my vote. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vprette Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I'm still aiming for only CIB releases, but 2 separate categories are ok should ve start collecting titles for a list? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinjinhawke Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 This year has been such a hazy blur. I cannot even remember what came out this year as there some were digital first and others CIB first so may overlap the this and last year. Rocketeer, Papi Commando. Oops, too soon? I think these are 2021 CIB I Got X-Ray Super Pro King of the Mountain GORF GOONiNUFF Death Race Fantasy Puzzle CIB I Missed Some Pony Game Ni Felter DIGITAL Super Pro King of the Mountain Super Pro Backgammon Super Pro Boxing Bank Panic Norseman The Sorrow of Gadhlan' Thur Pumpkin Mischief Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oops, I thought H.E.L.I., Intellivania and Antarctic Tales were 2020 because I ordered them around same time as Rick Dynamite. Definitely games that need recognition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share Posted November 24, 2021 Multiple sections for new digital games vs ones in the CIB (heli and AT) or ones already released in CIB (jr pac man). Not sure, this is uncharted territory in Intv voting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darn, should have played some H.E.L.I. Friday... I guess. Should SP BnJ be on the list? How about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cmadruga Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 If folks would be up for a 3rd category, maybe what could be "Best WIP". This could be a way to build visibility and anticipation about upcoming titles, and hopefully encourage their completion and release. Sample entries: (If most of those look unfamiliar... that is exactly why this category matters ? - Sasuke vs Commander - Robot Army - Rags to Riches - Fast Food - Keystone Kapers - Pitfall II - Wing War - Asphalt - Akalabeth - Ghostbusters+ - Infiltrator - The Pandora Incident Anyway, just an idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Best WIP for me sounds like one of those "give every kid a ribbon for showing up" prizes. *shrug* 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antarctic Tales Jr Pac Man I know Little Man Computer was free, but it should definitely make the list as a Digital release. Maybe have a category for Technical Honorable Mentions, since it's a Tutorvision title. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 WIPs that supposedly already have publishing deals probably are not much to vote for, though I have noticed that the Atari people have such categories. Perhaps they need more motivation to get things done? Also I believe in order to vote for WIP, there needs to be a playable demo, not just a YouTube video or screenshots. However if there is a show / streaming planned together with presenting the winner(s) of the GOTY, it might be useful if those WIPs that developers/publishers want to bring attention to could contribute them for exposure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see how everyone is getting a ribbon. Anyway, the point of this category would not be the prize, but the visibility and encouragement.

See the link also in my first post. Yeah, but look at how many games were completed and in progress for the 2600 this year! It makes sense for that group. A WIP award seems unnecessary to me, but there needs to be a downloadable, playable ROM to evaluate if there's going to be a winner declared in that category. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intelligentleman Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 As I play through the game, I am continually gobsmacked by the tunes (and other assets) in Legend of Ghatlan Thur (sic). It’s by Kai magazine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lathe26 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Considering how much can change between a WIP and when a game is finally released, I would be fine with skipping the WIP category. Things would get more complicated for games that take more than 1 year to be completed (could a game compete in the WIP category in multiple years, what about just the losing games be allowed to compete in multiple years). I appreciate the sentiment of adding the category (heart is in the right place), though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
