Rock the vote! SA game dev needs our help

29 January 2015
Blazin Aces rock the vote

Local game developer Red Dot Lab is up for the GameMaker Showcase Game of the Year 2014 award for its fantastically fun 2D retro dogfighting mobile game Blazin’ Aces.

More importantly, a MyGaming forumite and his team are up for an award for a sweet little game they made and released on the iOS, Android, and Windows Phone app stores.

Though some may know him as Duncan Bell, we know him as Terak.

Terak’s been relatively quiet on the forums lately, but since he’s been working on turning his browser game into a fully-fledged mobile game, we’ll let it slide.

Blazin’ Aces released in May 2014 and became YoYo Games’ game of the month winner in June 2014. This has put it in the running for the GameMaker Showcase Game of the Year 2014.

To vote for Blazin’ Aces (or another game you think deserves your vote more, you traitor), head to the YoYo Games website, click on the relevant vote button, enter one of your e-mail addresses, and solve the Captcha.

The winner will be announced after voting closes at 13:00 on 2 February 2015.

    I didn’t vote. In my opinion, the game sucked. After 5 minutes of which i will never get back, I uninstalled it immediately and im afraid it might have damaged my note 4.
