It’s that time of year again! With Unite 2013 fast approaching in Vancouver, it’s time to start thinking about the 2013 Unity Awards as well. The ceremony will take place at the Vancouver Convention Centre this year on August 29. If you’re interested in nominating a project (game or otherwise) for the Unity Awards, please read the submission guidelines and then follow instructions to complete the submission process. Thanks and look forward to seeing you at the show!
The Unity Awards: What are they?
Each year, we hold awards for our global developer community in several different categories in order to recognize the most impressive games and other projects being made using Unity. The categories this year include:
Qualifications
Pretty much anyone making games with Unity can submit their projects for consideration in the Unity Awards. There are some simple rules for eligibility that all entrants will need to follow.
One thing to note about these rules is that it’s OK to submit a game for consideration even if you aren’t totally sure if it will be ready by the June 30th cut-off. We will be checking to make sure any games being considered for a finalist slot meet all of the criteria first.
What Happens After Submitting a Project for Awards Consideration?
The Awards committee at Unity Technologies will look at each submission using the judging criteria for each category. Six nominees from each category are chosen as finalists and are invited to participate in the Unity Awards ceremony taking place at Unite in Vancouver.
How are Unity Awards Winners Chosen?
Once the finalists have been chosen, all of Unity Technologies employees will be invited to cast their votes on what they consider the best of each category. This is true with the exception of the Community Choice Award, which is chosen by our developer community via a poll on Unity3d.com, which will be posted in July.
Where Do We Submit Projects for Awards Consideration?
Nomination submissions are now open. They will close on June 30 at 12:00am PDT. Simply follow directions and fill out the form located at the following the link: http://unityawards2013.unityproposals.com/
Make sure to spread the word to those you know that have released projects between July 1, 2012 and June 30, 2013!
