The Meteoriks Awards 2022 - Categories and Suggestion Feature now available!
What productions wow-ed and amazed you most this year? Whom do you think should we celebrate, when we look back at a year of awesome productions? Who was your favourite in a compo, but went way too unnoticed for your taste?
You can now flag your favourite prods on Pouet and Demozoo for consideration by the jurors, and categories are now available:
New Talent
Which group or scener had the most memorable entrance this year?
Best Soundtrack
A demo is more than just its soundtrack - but it sure helps! Which soundtrack complemented its production perfectly, or even elevated it?
Best Visuals
Which production was the most pleasing to the eye and stunned you visually?
Best Direction
Which production really immersed you in its story thanks to its atmosphere, pacing, camerawork and cohesion?
Outstanding Concept
Which production really brought something new to the table to the scene, dared to be bold in its stylistic or directional choices?
Outstanding Technical Achievement
What was the moment you yelled during a compo “But this isn’t possible!” this year?
Best Oldschool Production
Which overall production on a machine with an 8-bit or smaller bus was your favourite this year?
Best Mid-School Production
And when we go a bit up the (time)scale? Which production impressed you most, that ran on a machine with 16-bits or wider bus or on a Fantasy Console?
Best Executable Graphics
Which 4k Graphics went beyond being simply picture-perfect?
Best High-End Intro
Which overall production with a size smaller than 64k amazed you most this year?
Best High-End Demo
Which overall production dropped your jaw and all the size-limits?
New category sorting TL;DR:
We introduce two oldschool compos to do justice by the different system capabilities and what you were able to squeeze out of them. We bring back Outstanding Concept thanks to the great productions this year that fit this category perfectly; and in favour of those two, heavy-heartedly drop the Scene Spirit Award to also avoid continuous double-nomination for the great sceners keeping the spirit alive!
You are already hitting the “suggest”-button on the third production, and they are not even (all) your own?
Then you’re in luck, juror applications are still open until January 30th! Sign-up now on https://2022.meteoriks.org/taking_part/juror/
