[vazor]

On Dec 4th at 7:30pm we are happy to announce SpyHop is sponsoring volunteers and the venue for the Utah Game Developers Choice Awards 2021! Check them out at https://spyhop.org
The venue is the Spy Hop Rooftop which is at 208 W Harvey Milk Blvd, downtown SLC.

Also joining as a sponsor is UDEN https://www.utahden.org who will help out with physical awards and organizing!

We are excited to announce this year's MCs will be:

Marshall Biesinger, who some of you may know as Arrustar, and L0N3STARR, who can be found at

New this year, we will have the games on site to play, including a unique opportunity to experience Spark XR's "teleportation" pod!

We need a couple more volunteers for showcasing games, and we are still seeking after-party sponsorships and ideas for good dining locations! Let me know if you'd like to help!
