Announcing the Winners from the Indie Games Festival in San Francisco

Posted by Kacey Fahey, Developer Marketing, Google Play

At the Google Play Indie Games Festival over the weekend, we welcomed hundreds of attendees to try out and enjoy a diverse range of amazing games from the indie community. The competition was very tough, and in the end, we recognized three winners:

• Flipping Legend by Hiding Spot
• Slayaway Camp by Blue Wizard Digital
• Tiny Bubbles by Pine Street Codeworks (coming soon!)

We'd also like to congratulate the rest of the Top 10 developers and all of the finalists who shared their games to make for such a fun and exciting event. Check out the great collection of games on Google Play.

Here are the other seven games that rounded out the Top 10:

• Age of Rivals by Roboto Games
• Beast Brawlers - PvP Arena by V2 Games Inc.
• Covens by Raincrow Studios, LLC
• Crashy Cars by pixelbizarre
• Jigsaw Story by Happy Square Studio Inc
• Loteria Latin Bingo by Gorilla Bean Games
• Splitter Critters by RAC7

The day started with time for attendees to play the 20 finalists' games. They experienced different genres and styles of gameplay and were encouraged to talk with the developers about their work and what it's like to make mobile games for a living. The event brought together kids, adults, gaming enthusiasts and non-gamers, and was a great representation of the fun experiences mobile games create.

In the afternoon, attendees voted for their favorites and the Top 10 moved on to the presentation round. These developers had three minutes to deliver their best pitch to the panel of judges. After the judges voted, results were in and the three winners and seven runners up were named.
