It was another great year for the Intel® Level Up Game Dev Contest! We had a record number of submissions from around the world. It was tough taking the hundreds of exciting games and narrowing it down to the 25 finalists. Once we narrowed it down to the top 5 finalists in 5 genres. The finalists where then given to the external panel of judges for scoring and selection.
We would like to thank everyone who participated in the contest in 2017. We had some truly amazing entries this year! We would like to thank everyone for submitting their games. It was a lot of fun reviewing your games and seeing so many fun games in development across the world. A special thanks also to our contest judges for 2017 and our great sponsors, Epic Games, Razer and Green Man Gaming, we couldn’t do it without you!
