Hi all! er... I was just wondering, what exactly would it take for an AGS developer to have his/her work displayed at the IGF?
Personally, I believe AGS has earned her right to be heard all the world over.

So, what say ye then?

Hehe I think you need to elaborate more on what is the IGF, since not all people here knew what it is (me neither). Or at least post a link to it.

Anyway, Google comes to the rescue.

There already is/are AGS game(s) listed there, near the top of the game list is this, which is an AGS game.
I'm too lazy to check further down the list to see if there're other AGS games.

It looks like anyone can submit a game, of course, the cash prize probably wouldn't be won unless it was of a very high standard A lot of IGFers seem to make their own engines and games, but as Gilbot pointed out - there are some AGS games listed.

I've been thinking about it, and if you want your game to stand out at the IGF, it must have:

1) Quality
2) Most importantly, very original and rich gameplay.

Basically, if you submit an adventure game with a great story but same old same old on the gameplay, it might be accepted but will probably not be celebrated.

I think saturday school could win, Edmundo.
You got my vote! (I'm not registered, though)
