Fez wins and Super T.I.M.E Force announced at IGF Awards
Some pretty huge news came out of the Independent Games Festival with a brand new game and a soon-to-be-released game winning one of the big prizes. Before we start big, Capybara Games’ Super T.I.M.E. Force won the XBLA prize which ensures publishing and funding by Microsoft for the upcoming title. The trailer looks insane with questions of 12 player co-op or the amount of enemies on screen is amazing. It looks sort of like Metal Slug in crazy space. No pricing or date announced but watch the trailer so you know what craziness to expect.
Another bunch of nominations went out for the Seumas McNally grand prize with Fez and Spelunky HD were both in the running but one came out the winner. Phil Fish accepted the award on behalf of Polytron Corporation, which wasn’t the first time since the game won an art direction award in 2008. The game is currently in certification for release later this year.
