SAGE 2015 Announced

As one Sonic community event gets underway another one has been announced to return. SAGE.

The Sonic Amateur Games Expo will be returning in two months. From December 18th to 24th the latest in Sonic fan gaming (and much more, not just Sonic) will be showcased.

Guidelines on submitting games and streaming them were provided:

Submission Guidelines:

• Game entries must be submitted to sageentry@gmail.com.
• Each game entry must have the following:
  • A title/logo to display for its respective game, PNG format, at least 500 x 500.
  • A description of what your game submission is all about, including any links to soundtracks, websites, game credits, or miscellaneous information about your entry.
  • A zip file containing your game.
• All game entries must be submitted by December 11th. If your game will not be finished before that time, it will not be featured in the event.
• ROM Hacks are allowed, given they significantly change something about the games they are based on.
• Personal webpages that link outside of SAGE, or “booths,” are not a part of this year’s event. However, each game will have its own “booth” on the main SAGE website.
• Your submission must be a complete demonstration or full release of your game project.
• If you have multiple game projects to submit, please follow the submission guidelines for each project.
  • If you have an engine to demonstrate, it will be put under a different category differing from regular game submissions. Engines must follow the same guidelines as stated above.
