🏆 AGS Awards 2024 - Awards are over!

[Sinitrena]

Congratulations to all nominees and winners!

And thanks Kastchey and Cat for the wonderful ceremony!

[Rik_Vargard]

Congratulations to all those who won an award, the nominees, and those that had that passion to finish their game!

For the Best Demo Award, I totally got confused... first by the win and also by the fact that we were two  .
So I didn't know what to do and I didn't want to encroach on Ramorama talking.

So I'll say it here:

First, congratulations to my fellow winner @Ramorama 

And :

Thank you so much for voting for my little demo.
It's a real honor!

One little quick shout-out to the Tech Forums guys:
You not only help us with our games...
You literally save our games!
So thank you for your time, kindness and patience.
Thanks to the people who made this ceremony possible.
And thank you so much, fellow AGSers for making this community what it is!

Cheers!

From my side I would like to, firstly, fire Stan, and secondly, thank Dualnames for running and co-hosting the ceremony, as well as all the people who helped us with the awards presentation for the same.

You guys don't even have an idea how much easier you make it for us just by presenting an award or two. Thank you <3

You did a great job with the awards. Also, congratulations to all the winners!

[RootBound]

Holy cow, I won in both categories??

This is so amazing. Thank you so much for everyone who played and voted for MORT and Bad to the Coral. It was an honor to be nominated alongside so many professional games, and to have my hard work on both games so appreciated.

Seriously, this is awesome. Congratulations to all the other winners, thanks again so much!

[Ramorama]

For the Best Demo Award, I totally got confused... first by the win and also by the fact that we were two  .

So I'll say it here:

First, congratulations to my fellow winner @Ramorama 

@Rik_Vargard I'm sorry again, that I talked too much on stage. I thought there was enough time for both of us to write. 
I was also confused like you by the win and by the fact we both won an award for the best demo.
Next time, I try to keep myself short so other winners also have enough time.

Here again, congratulations to my fellow winner @Rik_Vargard! 
I'll make a post about your demo on Bluesky and social media as well!

Update: aaaaaaaand... posted!

[Rik_Vargard]

@Ramorama Hey, I'm sorry if my words made you think I felt bad about anything; it wasn't my intention at all. And I didn't.

Your demo came first so you popped up on the stage and started talking, and while you were talking I got popped up on the stage, and I was in front of you while you were talking, so I moved away and again, I got totally confused.

I could have waited and then ask "Is it my turn now?", see?
And in my head I thought that we had to move on and that I'll post my thing on the forum and voilà.

This is just my second time at the AGS Awards and I guess this doesn't happen very often, and how do you organize something like that if we're not supposed to know we won? 

I do really appreciate your gesture to post about my demo on your socials. Must be why I got those new few visits and downloads, so thank you so much for that! 

So! Let's just be grateful to all those who voted for us and enjoy the fact that you and me are the Winning Team of the 2024 AGS Demo Award!

Cheers!

Hmm...I don't see any games in the site's 2024 Awards list and none of the winning and nominated games are tagged on their creators' forum profiles.
