In its 12th year, to boost the enthusiasm of indie game developers, IGDC initiated the award ceremony.
It plays a key role in developing the Indian gaming ecosystem – helping developers gain valuable insights, pick up new skills, as well as connect with publishers and investors that they otherwise may not have had access to. The conference is followed by the awards which is the centerpiece of efforts made to recognize and promote talented Indian developers.
