The Korea Indie Game Association (Chairman Choi Hoon) announced on the 30th that it will hold the ‘3rd 2023 Indie Games’ for indie games released and serviced in 2023.
The ‘Indieple Awards’ in Korea were held for the third time this year and are hosted and organized by the Korea Indie Game Association, with Megazone Cloud (CEO Lee Joo-wan) and Seoul Economic Promotion Agency (CEO Kim Hyun-woo) participating as sponsors.
Recruitment of entries is open until midnight on Sunday, November 12, and eligible participants are small and medium-sized businesses (corporations, individuals) or development teams (individuals) located in Korea that develop indie games, regardless of platforms such as PC, mobile, and console, to be released in 2023.

This ‘Indiple Awards’ was sponsored by the Seoul Economic Promotion Agency for the first time and is evaluated as a one-step award ceremony in terms of public interest and symbolism. The selection is made by combining the fair evaluation of judges composed of professional gaming industry professionals active in various fields and the online/offline votes of game users.
Awards will be given out in a total of 6 categories: ‘Grand Prize (Korea Indie Game Association Award),’ ‘Grand Prize (Megazone Cloud Award),’ ‘Excellence Award,’ ‘Creative Award,’ ‘Popular Award (Indie Game Award),’ and ‘Special Award.’ and award awards.
In addition to recruiting game entries, we recruit offline visitors through online ‘like’ voting at the ‘Indiple’ Naver Cafe to ensure fair judging results.
