All games submitted will become part of the Origins Awards Traveling Road Show.
The AAGAD has solicited different conventions, large and small, all over the country to provide us a room where Origins Awards submissions can be taught and played by Jurors and the public. It’s the perfect opportunity to get your new games out there in the public eye and to ensure that they will be played by the people voting on the nominees and ultimately the winners at Origins 2010.
The first opportunity will be at UCON in Ann Arbor, Michigan. They have prepared a special Origins Award Game Room nothing but Origins Awards Submissions (for games that have been produced in 2009 and submitted to the AAGAD for consideration) will be displayed and played. And it’s a great opportunity for you to get your games noticed for the upcoming Holiday gift season!
The Academy will be working with other conventions all over the country during the months of December, January, February, and right up through GAMA Trade Show in March, where there will be rooms for Origins Awards Submissions to be played.
So, download the submission form, package up your products, and get into the running. It's a great investment in your product!
