    Hey everyone! Nathan here from the Made with Unity team.

This is a great opportunity to showcase your game to other developers, media, publishers, and investors. Selected developers will get 2 conference tickets, an area to showcase their game, and promotional support on social media for your game.

    If you have a playable demo available you should definitely apply! All you need to do is fill out the submission form and sign up for a profile on the newly redesigned madewith.unity.com. Let me know if you have any questions!

    What happened to the thread about winning a ticket to this when we submitted a developer story?

    I just looked at the submission page and it says the deadline is August 21st at midnight PDT, can we get an update on this? Has the date changed?

    Has anyone received an acceptance notice yet? According to the submission form acceptance notices were sent out yesterday.

    Yea, I was wondering about this as well. Tried calling the San Fransisco office, but it went straight to voicemail. Normally, I'd just wait until something got sent to my email, but there's that one line on the official page that worries me:

    I'm not sure if there are issues getting the email through or if the response date was pushed a week like the submission deadline, but some clarification on this one would be very much appreciated!

    Perhaps we didn't get selected. However, I will say none of my promo codes included in the submission have been collected. So, if I wasn't selected, then at least I know they didn't even attempt to launch the game.

    Well I'm sure that a company that stresses the importance of community would put in the minute effort required to send a mass email to all participants letting them know that the selection was complete. So I doubt that's the reason. My guess is the evaluation queue still has a few projects left in it and they're giving themselves more time to adequately vet the candidates.

    There's also the fact that it's Labor Day weekend in the US right now. So it's possible they're going to wait until they all get back to work before finishing up the selection.

    So my guess actually, is that its going to take one more week than they posted on the form. I believe they pushed back the submission date by one week so I have no doubt they will need an "extra" week to finish evaluating all the submissions as well. But its hard to say for sure.

    So any updates? Any estimate of when we will receive notification one way or another?

    I'm still in limbo with booking international flights. I'm still assuming I'm not accepted, but we just need to find someone who is accepted to find out for sure.

    @DeXoN Did you find out if any of the promo codes you included in your submission were used? It just feels really weird that they wouldn't even bother to play it before deciding.

    I sent an email to @nathaniel-ventura-unity but never got a response back. It's been well over a week now since the original date (9-1-2016) and still nothing from Unity on this.

    Yes, we're quickly approaching 2 weeks beyond the official response date. To answer your question, none of the promo codes I submitted with the application have been collected.

    Yea, we didn't make it either which is too bad, but that's always the risk of trying I guess :).

    Hope some of the others were able to make it in. See you guys at Unite 2016!
