Cat's Dream Update

TAG Sessions extends our thanks the judge's panel for nominating Cat's Dream for Best Art and Game of the Year in the 2020 Indie Groundbreaker Awards. The nominations alone are a great honor and a recognition of the work that the team put into this game and for this. We are highly grateful.

However, due to personal reasons, we've decided to ask that Cat's Dream be withdrawn from this year's nominees. We wish all the best to the other nominees and look forward to who will win in the different categories.

Again, thank you for recognizing the work behind Cat's Dream and for continuing to support independent game designers through initiatives like the Indie Groundbreaker Awards.

And the IGDN Indie Groundbreaker Awards 2020 Nominees are in!

Tremendously proud and happy for Ivan Frani, my amazing friend and artist who helped capture the desired look, energy, and emotions on each piece for the game.  Congratulations, Ivan!

Special thanks as well to Jovan who was the reason I wrote the game in the first place.  The story behind the game's creation can be found in the book itself.  Thank you!

Congratulations and cheers to all the other nominees as well! I can see a lot of familiar names and faces among the games and I am very proud to see so many awesome games listed there.

From the site:

The Indie Groundbreaker Awards, while presented by the IGDN, are meant to recognize all indie designers across the industry. Therefore, our judging panel will be made up of five judges, 2 from within the IGDN and 3 from the greater industry. These judges will provide an unbiased group decision, as games they have worked on will not be eligible for submission this year.
Winners are announced at the IGDN Social held at Gen Con in Indianapolis each year. Given the COVID-19 Pandemic, in 2020, we’ll be holding our first online ceremony on July 29th, 2020!
