We are all familiar with the challenges of becoming successful in the highly competitive and overly saturated video game industry.  

Whether you launch an iOS or Android-based game, the challenge is not only to stand out from the crowd, but also to receive recognition and media coverage.  Without it, it is almost impossible to beat the competition and get to the top of the App Store or Google Play.  When it comes to getting publicity and recognition, industry competitions and festivals are a great way to start.
