Organizers of the 2014 Game Developers Conference have announced the eight winners of the Best in Play award program for exhibitors in the three-day GDC Play 2014 event, which allows emerging developers to show their games in a specially designed kiosk. The winners, picked from more than 50 exhibitors participating in GDC Play, include the devilishly challenging retro space shooter Enemy Mind from Schell Games and Phantom Compass' pinball puzzle fantasy RPG Rollers of the Realm. For the new Best in Play award program, all GDC Play exhibitors were judged on their in-development or complete games by a panel of veteran GDC organizers and Gamasutra editors. All Best in Play award winners will receive 2 All Access Passes to the 2015 Game Developers Conference. Winners for Best in Play will also receive special designations for their kiosks at GDC 2014, where their games will be playable by all GDC attendees. GDC All-Access Pass holders can contact all GDC Play exhibitors via the currently operating GDC Play Matchmaking Software. Best in Play 2014 Winners
