So #AmongUsVR, a game that I directed, is nominated for #TheGameAwards best VR game tonight. I wanted to get this out before we win or lose.
The show is an ad. The voting is a publicity stunt - an attempt to give the award some appearance of legitimacy.
In reality the public voting is 10% of the total score with 90% left to be given by some panel of insiders. Winning or even being nominated doesn't say that much about the quality of the game.
BUT
The game IS actually really good. AND lots of people that I worked closely with over the last year+ poured tons of effort into making this game great and they'd really like to win this award. They're really good and talented people doing really good work and they deserve all the recognition and good feels in the world.
SO
If your watching, cross your fingers for my friends who helped me make this game.
BUT
If your sad it's not your game on the stage, please don't be. If you make stuff that makes anyone happy, even you, you deserve it just as much.
