The Sundance of indie gaming, the Indie Games Festival (IGF), has just announced their 9th annual festival and awards program. The festival, started in 1998, is on it’s 9th year of encouraging innovation in game design and development, and continues to offer independent game developers much-needed support and press. The IGF is currently accepting submissions for their main awards category, as well as their mods and student categories. The IGF awards ceremony takes place March 7, 2007 and is always one of the highlights of the annual game developers conference (GDC). Good luck to everyone.
