Peter Jaworowski - Design Director & Co-Founder (TOP 10) and Karol Kolodzinski - Head of Motion (TOP 100) awarded at AdWeek’s Talent 100 List. It’s a great honor, thank you AdWeek!

AdWeek was founded in June 1978 by a trio of former magazine executives—Jack Thomas, publisher of New York magazine, Ken Fadner, a former vice president of finance at New York and Esquire, and Pen Tudor, a sales executive at Life—who joined together to purchase three regional advertising trade publications in New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles. The owners wanted to provide a regional focus on advertising industry’s creative process, account changes, and decision makers.

We are really proud to inform you that The Moonsters has been selected as an Official Honoree for the Games category in The 15th Annual Webby Awards in games/handheld devices category. We compete to the finals with such big titles as Angry Birds, Fruit Ninja and FarmVille.

Comment from Webby Jury:

Webby Honorees, Nominess and Winners truly represent the best of the Web. They  are but a small percentage of total entries and chosen by members of the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences.

In recognition of the exceptional quality of submissions received this year, the Academy has acknowledged outstanding entries as Official Honorees, alongside our Nominees and Winners. With nearly 10,000 entries received from all 50 US states and over 60 countries, the Official Honoree distinction is awarded to the top 10% of all work entered that exhibits remarkable achievement.

Important Notice:
Right now, game is taken from Appstore. But not to worry - together with Bad Juju Games & Namco Bandai as a publisher we prepare to relaunch the title under more catchy name The Mooniacs.  New game, with retina support, improved gameplay and tons of features will enter Appstore 31th of May.

Stay tuned.
