Won the "GDCA Audience Award" at GDC 2026 — the Academy Awards of gaming!
The interactive novel "and Roger" has won the "Audience Award" at the Game Developers Choice Awards (GDCA), one of the world's most prestigious gaming awards. This marks the first time in history that a Japanese indie title has won an award at the GDCA.
The GDCA is a major award presented at the Game Developers Conference 2026, one of the world's largest game developer conferences, held in San Francisco in March 2026. Chosen by votes from game developers around the world, it is considered one of the "Big Three" game awards and is sometimes called the "Academy Awards of gaming." The "Audience Award" that the game received this time is a category presented to the most supported game of the year, as determined by a public vote from players around the world. Additionally, the title was selected as a finalist for the "Social Impact Award," which honors games that promote equality, diversity, and sustainability, and have had a positive impact on players' lives.
We hope you will continue to support "and Roger."
