After months of development the winners of this year’s Make Something Unreal contest have been chosen by a panel of five judges – NVIDIA’s Phil Wright, UKIE CEO Jo Twist, T3 man Matt Hill, the Wellcome Trust’s Iain Dodgeon and Epic’s European territory manager Mike Gamble – with a little help from one Peter Molyneux.
First place went to the Quake-inspired Epigenesis, which Gamble described as a “potential eSport”. Creators Dead Shark Triplepunch go on to receive a license to use Epic’s Unreal Engine 4, allowing them to commercially produce games with the much-vaunted future-gen tech.
