Organized by Bungie art director Christopher "Oryx" Barrett, who is well-known in the indie community for creating gorgeous roguelike tilesets and visuals, the competition saw participants all creating games using the same tileset.
The judging panel consisted of Wichman, Barrett and
Cardinal Quest creator Ido Yehieli. The winner was
Adventuring Company from Slothwerks, which can be downloaded for Android, or played in a browser.
