The Indie Game of the Year Awards committee has disqualified Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 from its Game of the Year title due to alleged use of AI tools in development. This decision was based on credible information received that violated competition rules. The game had been announced as the winner at last night’s awards ceremony but was subsequently revoked. The committee emphasized its commitment to award integrity and withdrew all related prizes. This incident has significant implications for the indie game development community, sending a clear message about AI usage. The committee has not yet announced whether a new winner will be selected.
