At Berns in Stockholm FutureGames student game Unmechanical was nominated for the Game of the Year-award and Zap the Bug nominated for Best Innovation at the Swedish Game Awards.
We can now tell you that our talented students took home an honorable mention for Unmechanical and Best Innovation for Zap the Bug. We are very happy for our students and extra thrilled of course for one very special reason – when the Unmechanical team recieved their award the project managers behind SGA recieved a phone call – from no one other than Epic Games. Apparently the folks at Epic Games had seen Unmechanical and loved it – giving the students a bonus award of $1000 and their blessing. Thank you Epic Games!
The Zap the Bug-team also had a reason to be joyous with their cash price of 50.000SEK. Congratulations guys!
If you want to play the games, you could have visited the stand at the Central Station in Stockholm. There you could come and play the nominated games and meet the developers.
Again we would like to congratulate our students for their great effort: Sandra Scholz, Sofia Jakobsson, Marko Permanto, Markus Andersson, Joachim Holmér, Patrick Berglind, Victor Rathsmann and André Axrud.
Congratulations!
We're extending the application period for our Nordic programs until May 16.
Applications for International Students are open until May 16.
