IGC Members Awarded at MassDIGI Game Challenge

A few members of the Collective recently participated in the MassDIGI Game Challenge. Ziba Scott of Popcannibal walked away with an Honorary Mention for Captain Astronaut’s Last Hurrah and Erik Asmussen of 82 Apps walked away with the Grand Prize.

The Game Challenge, a pitch contest, helps indie and student game development entrepreneurs hone their ideas and products for launch. Forty-four teams consisting of indie game developers and student teams from around New England competed in a sold-out event from March 1-2 at the Microsoft New England Research and Development Center showcasing the rapidly expanding game industry cluster in the region. A panel of videogame industry veterans served as judges for the competition.

A press release at Gamasutra details the event.
