Genre Games Result! just in time too......I think everyone thought I forgot.

This year was absolutely incredible, thank you so much to everyone who participated and entered. We had an astounding 26 entries, #bigproud! It means the world to all of us that you guys keep coming back to participate.
You can watch all the entries here: here.

The judges for Genre Games 2023 were:
Locker 74 Productions
DudeBrick
AntBandit
Joebor1777

The judging process worked as follows, each judge watched every film. After watching, each judge ranked their personal top 10 films. Each of the judge's lists were then run through a system that utilizes instant run-off voting to create a top fifteen reflective of all the judges. The judges then adjusted the top 10 list as a group until they were satisfied with the outcome.
Judges considered the following when watching the films: originality, production value (animation, set design, cinematography, sound, etc.), story, and creative interpretation of the theme. While the parts of the film were considered, the most important quality the judges looked for is how the film works as a whole.
