In a surprising move, indie developer Vedinad has withdrawn their game, Megabonk, from The Game Awards after feeling that it was incorrectly nominated for the Best Debut Indie Game category. This decision highlights a significant issue within the gaming community regarding the criteria for nominations and the definition of a debut game. Vedinad, who has previously developed games under different studio names, believes that their prior experience disqualifies Megabonk from being considered a debut title.
