Awards(test)

Every year, a carefully picked selection of judges from the industry distribute awards across 8 categories at the end of the last day of the show.

GRAND JURY

VERMILION GATE AWARD

One game will rise above them all, and it will surprise, delight, or amaze us with its innovation or its gracefully intuitive design.

OUTSIDE JAPAN

INTERNATIONAL AWARD

Though BitSummit's original mission was to celebrate and promote Japanese indie games, we also reward one international game every year that we think the Japanese players will love.

INNOVATION

INNOVATIVE OUTLAW AWARD

This award will go to the game that does the most to bend convention on its ear. Will we discover a new gaming paradigm at this year’s BitSummit, or will it simply be a game that does something clever and wonderful?

GAME DESIGN

EXCELLENCE IN GAME DESIGN AWARD

Concept, gameplay, flow are the master keywords behind every great game. BitSummit celebrates excellent game design that we think will keep players on their toes.

VISUAL DESIGN

VISUAL EXCELLENCE AWARD

The ‘best’ graphics aren’t always the most ‘excellent’ graphics, so this award could really go to the most unexpected game.

SOUND DESIGN

EXCELLENCE IN SOUND DESIGN AWARD

Our ears are listening to, and what isn’t shown is often heard, and to the game that tickles our eardrums with the most unique sound design, or the loveliest soundtrack, may just take home this prize.
