The winner will be chosen in mid December and after the submission of the game concepts on April 1, applicants will take part in workshops to help them further develop their ideas.
The Netherlands Game Award is supported by Dutch and Lebanese companies and institutions. The Royal Netherlands Embassy, Bader Young Entrepreneurs Program, Wixel Studios, IJsfontein and the Utrecht School of Arts will sit in the Advisory Board of the competition and will form the Jury to decide on the Award.
