The Meteoriks Awards 2025
category: general [glöplog]
Dojoe claims it is almost December, which means it is time to find the best productions of the year again.
And while we, the team, are still doubtful about this fact, your roughly 3.000 productions are a rather good motivator to call upon you to join the jury!
So: Do you love demos? Do you love celebrating them yet a little more? Have you ever commented on the nominations after the fact to let the world know who should have been nominated?
All very good reasons for finally becoming a juror!
Here is what your next couple of months would entail, if we get the honour of having you:
All in all, this will take between four and eight evenings' worth of time, mostly spread across January and February.
Visit our website to learn more and sign up for jury "duty" until January 1st, we would love to have you!

We are looking forward to working and celebrating the best productions of the year with you!

All very good reasons for finally becoming a juror!
Here is what your next couple of months would entail, if we get the honour of having you:
- Help deciding on categories with your fellow jurors
- Review a share of last year's productions
- Identify up to five nominees in a specific category
- Choose a laureate
- Represent your category live during the award show
All in all, this will take between four and eight evenings' worth of time, mostly spread across January and February.

The categories are now available
at https://2025.meteoriks.org/categories/
And with that, we also invite you to recommend your favourite productions right here on Pouet, or over on Demozoo.
Like every year, you should be able to see the recommendation feature right in the production record.
This also marks your last chance to join us as a juror - we'd love to have you joining our team of seasoned and brand-new jurors alike!
