A list of finalists in each category was released today. Here’s an excerpt from the web site:
Nominations are led by Bit Blot’s dreamlike, innovatively controlled 2D underwater adventure title Aquaria, which garnered 4 nominations (out of six), including one for the Seumas McNally Grand Prize.
Other Grand Prize nominees included Queasy Games’ cleverly designed abstract shoot-em-up, Everyday Shooter, which grabbed 3 nominations in total – nominees for the top prize were rounded out by Peter Stock’s intelligently complex physics puzzle game Armadillo Run, Three Rings’ Wild West indie strategy MMO Bang! Howdy, and Naked Sky’s Xbox Live Arcade action-puzzler RoboBlitz.

Feel free to post your predictions in the comments section. Derek might be convinced to give out an Aquaria goodie to anyone who gets the most categories right!
