BAFTA Young Game Designer Awards 2021 Winners
BAFTA Young Game Designer Awards 2021 Winners. By Paul Bisconti.
Computer game designers are awarded the Young Game Designer Award each year for a decade with the aim of giving young game creators the means to get a foot in the industry. This year it was awarded to the BAFTA team for its work on the award-winning game The Last of Us.
Developed by The Last of Us’s team lead Peter Dinklage, The Last of Us is a survival horror based on the real life experiences of the survivors of the 2015 Las Vegas shooting. With this year’s winners, we are looking at a group of award-winning young game designers who have worked on blockbuster titles in the past year.
All five of the judges on The Last of Us were surprised by the quality of their work on the mobile platformer “For Honor,” the first in the award-winning Firewatch series by the Obsession Games team (pictured).
“On a team of such extraordinary talent and commitment, the award is very much deserved. I can’t believe the level of commitment from everyone involved is unsurpassed.
“I just wanted to express how humbled I am by the accolades and awards you are receiving. While the success of The Last of Us is the product of a team that is so diverse, the real story is in the individuals, who show what true grit and tenacity, and their belief in each other, can mean.
“The Last of Us is the game that we’ve been working on for the last three years that we’ve managed to create something amazing. To not only get this award for our achievements but also for the people behind it and the community that has grown around it is really fantastic.
“I’m proud of my team. I think it’s rare nowadays to have a group of talented game developers. I think you can really see the work that you all do in a project like this. It really is a special game.

Article Title: Winners of the 2021 Young Game Designers Competition | Computer Games. Full Article Text: The winners of the prestigious award, developed by the British game design association Young Game Designers, have been announced for the 2021 competition. The contest, which ran from April 2016 to January 2017, was won by the team of students at the prestigious university of Sheffield in the UK. Congratulations to the students.
The award, which is usually presented to students who have achieved their first job as game designers, gives them a sense of recognition, which was achieved by them in this case. The winning young game designers also got together with the winners of awards such as the GAD Award and the GAMBIT Award, to give them the opportunity to receive recognition as well.
The award was officially revealed on 28 March 2017 by Young Game Designer Ben O’Hare and will be given annually to a student who has achieved the greatest achievement in his or her game industry career or to a student who has shown creativity, innovation and leadership in his or her team.
The Young Game Designers Award is awarded annually to the winners of the best game creation, as well as students that have displayed their talents and skills in the fields of computer games and game design.
The award was devised in collaboration with the British game design society YGD and the game development community Game Developer UK. The winners were selected by judges from the community, which included game development professionals from companies such as Bigben Interactive, Wargaming, Paradox Interactive, Blizzard Entertainment Inc. , Blizzard Entertainment Asia and Blizzard Entertainment Singapore.
The prize will also be provided by Wargaming, which is a large organization of game developers based in Austria.
Why was the winning game so much different from the 50 or so games entered in previous games competitions? Why were all the games of the winner of the YGL Award built on Unity? Why did the winner of the YGL Award build his or her game solely with Unity? Where is the winner of the YGL Award going to get this award, since Unity is no longer being used by the YGL Awards? If I’m not mistaken, the winning game has nothing to do with Unity, but I’m not sure.
Game Concept Award: Rewind
It’s very rare to find a developer with so much experience in developing for PlayStation and Xbox consoles as Sony’s Shuhei Yoshida. This was the first time I saw Yoshida at an I. event, but the first time I heard his voice. I didn’t have to wait long to be amazed.
“Well, we already had a lot of games,” Yoshida began when the first speaker named Yoshihiro Hoshino introduced the event, speaking about the ‘Rewind’ and the ‘Reality Revolver’, referring to the PlayStation 2 and Xbox game consoles. Yoshida’s voice, though, was clear and filled with such strength that it was hard to believe he didn’t have a video game in some way.
It has been said that the original PlayStation was a game console. The game console was basically just the console with a mouse and a keyboard. The idea behind it was that it’s just like an arcade machine and the more you can play, the better. Unfortunately, the console was already out; it was like an arcade machine but with a keyboard and a mouse; and in order to play, you had to look down at the screen so that the controls are visible. As soon as you had the console, you couldn’t play, so people weren’t really playing games.
The original console was pretty rare, so its inventor was a little bit famous, such as the story of the man who invented the first PlayStation and the man who invented the first computer.
There were other consoles in its time, though. The original PlayStation is what I would call a game console. It’s a console, and I would definitely want to own one of these consoles. The reason for that is that they were very cheap and everyone knew that playing games was important. It took more money to make a game that the average person couldn’t play.
That might not seem like a big difference, but as I think about it, the original PlayStation wasn’t that much better than an arcade machine. So it was that game developers at the time had no need for a console.
BAFTA Young Game Designers Mentor Award
In line with the BAFTA Young Game Designers Award’s vision, the organisation has developed a mentoring programme for young game designers. The programme is based on the ideas that a young designer need to be a lifelong learner, a lifelong consumer, and an optimist. The programme is designed to build the young designers’ confidence in their art and the ability to challenge themselves. The programme’s three main pillars are as follows: (a) “creative thinking”, (b) “sociability” and (c) “self-reflection”. The programme aims to give a young game designer the necessary opportunity to develop these three elements, as well as to encourage the young designer to develop as a lifelong game designer.
The initiative will foster the young game designer in the following ways: (1) The programme aims at enhancing the learning experience of the new young game designer by providing the young designer with a structured learning programme and a forum to support them, (2) the programme gives the young game designer the opportunity to develop their creativity in a way which is appropriate for the future of the industry and which respects the value of freedom, (3) the programme provides the young designer the opportunity to develop as a lifelong player, and (4) the programme provides opportunities for the young designer to develop his or her skills to be able to work across multiple platforms and genres.
Developmental activities – The young designer will participate in the development of interactive projects on the website. For example, they could design game concepts. They could also develop interactive games, for example, with the help of the website.
The young designer will be involved in the development of a website promoting their game concept, a game tutorial which aims at teaching younger game designers, and various web resources.
The young designer will develop his/her skills by participating in online courses and projects. The courses must be based on projects in which the young designer will develop their ability to deliver effective gameplay.
Developers and designers who use a platform will receive a certificate of participation which validates the level of participation the young designer has demonstrated.
Tips of the Day in Computer Games
Steam is like a car – the most important thing is that it goes where you tell it to go, and it doesn’t stop until you tell it to. There were a few moments in the early days of PC games where I couldn’t play a game for more than 5 minutes because I couldn’t get my PC to work, and sometimes I couldn’t even get my Internet connection working, and I didn’t know what happened.
We can still call the Internet “the car,” but it’s really just “the Internet,” which is why it can still drive your car to a strange and inconvenient place. Steam has a system called Steam Connection, which works basically like having a local network connection on a PC. It monitors all of your Steam library, and when you have an update to an update you downloaded, you simply reboot the computer, and you’re good to go.
