IndieDB has begun voting for Indie of the Year 2018, and I'd appreciate it if you head on over to the Cogmind page and give it a click!
The voting happens in two phases, first (now) just to determine the Top 100 group, then those 100 compete for one of the Top 10 spots. It's not really worth going for a top 10 slot since there are too many games with huge following that compete for those (it's a popularity contest, after all, and Cogmind's audience is pretty niche!), but I'm pretty sure we can make the Top 100 again. Cogmind has been in the Top 100 for several years now thanks to fans helping vote it past the first round, which is pretty good considering there are well over 10,000 games on the platform. Thank you! (This is nice as a fairly easy way to get a little extra exposure when we've got as much support as we generally do.)
Registration isn't required.
I won't be posting a dedicated reminder about the next phase, but will mention it in the news assuming Cogmind makes it past round one.
(Also if you haven't done so yet, for those of you with Cogmind on Steam, leaving a review is really helpful! (We're also working towards a specific goal ;)))
(Also, on IndieDB go vote for your other favorite roguelikes that have an IndieDB page--you can vote for more than one game!)
This week I'll be posting my annual dev review, so be on the lookout for that :D
Update Dec 11
Many thanks to everyone for your votes! We made it into the Top 100 :D
Once again, from here there are a number of extremely popular games which will vie for the Top 10 spots so I don't think we stand much chance competing for those, but the voting continues... (you can vote again, and also check out all the other games that made the cut)
