So The Game Awards 2024 happened last week. With a surprising winner. Astro Bot! That delivered a powerful message: games don’t have to be massive or complex to leave an impact. Astro Bot, a charming platformer, proved that fun, polished design can beat giants like Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree and Black Myth: Wukong. Even more inspiring, Balatro, developed by a solo creator, earned its nomination alongside industry heavyweights. It’s a reminder that small games with big creativity are not just relevant, they’re worthy of Game of the Year. This only reinforces our belief in the ongoing revival of the indie scene as we head into 2025 and beyond. What were your thoughts on this year’s winners and nominees? Did you think any other title deserved the win? What do you think of Elden Ring's DLC being nominated, should DLC be allowed to win GOTY or should it have its own category? Let’s discuss! #GameAwards #IndieGames #GameDev #Studio801
