The Big C

Come January up-and-coming video game developers will have an opportunity to showcase their works at The Big C (The BAWLS Independent Game Competition). Sponsored by—as you may have guessed—BAWLS (a high caffeine soda) and The Slamdance Film Festival (no, not Sundance!), indie-designers will compete for cash and prizes, judged by both jury and audience.  Entries may be submitted by disc or URL (for download). Check out Slamdance for more information.  As an aside, it's good to see events like The Big C popping up, as it's a true sign of the growing appreciation of video games as an art form.
