The Swedish site gameplayer.se arranged a game developing competition together with Paradox Interactive and now they have choosen Flipside of the Divine as the winner. Here’s the motivation:
Flipside of the Divine demonstrates that innovation alone is not enough, but innovation, mixed with rock-solid development is the killer formula for a high-quality compelling game. Plus the pace of Flipside constantly keeps you on your toes.
However good game mechanics is not enough you also require a high standard of technical quality to support this. Flipside is not just the best game in this competition – it is a great game, period.
Great news, try the game if you haven’t already. :)
By the way — tomorrow I’m off to the Nordic Game Jam in Copenhagen. Exciting!
Take care,
Erik
