Independent Game Festival Audience Award Voting Opens in Partnership with FileShack

January 17, 2008 11:48 AM

Game Developers Conference organizer CMP Media has opened up voting for the Audience Award component of its annual Independent Game Festival. Eleven games, whittled down from 170 entries, have made it to the final round to be voted on by gamers.

All games are freely available for online play or download, with Shacknews' own FileShack serving as the IGF's exclusive official download partner. Head over to the official IGF Audience Award website to browse descriptions and download links for all entries. The winner will receive a $2,500 prize.

The winner of the Audience Award will be presented with the winners of the other IGF categories at the festival's award show just prior to the Game Developers Choice Awards on February 20 at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco. Voting is open up until the day of the ceremony.

  Yep. I enjoy playing small, well-crafted indie games as much as AAA releases. Great to see the Shack is participating in this....
