Damn! Earn to Die Rogue has won the Excellence in Mobile award at the 2024 Australian Game Developer Awards (AGDAs)! We had the pleasure of joining a handful of the Sydney-based Not Doppler team on stage to accept this award.
“Not Doppler and our new title Earn To Die Rogue was nominated for the Excellence in Mobile Award, which is reserved for the best mobile game developed within Australia in that year. Not only were we nominated... WE WON!! Us here at Not Doppler are thrilled with the award. We want to thank you the players who continue to push us to innovate and improve Earn To Die Rogue. We've got much more planned for the future of the game, this is just the beginning.”

“As the Australian Game Developer scene grows, so does the calibre of games produced by Australian studios. This year, the competition was incredibly strong again, with incredibly tight scores across many of the submitted games. Our independent judges worked hard to come up with three finalists and one ultimate winner in each category. On behalf of IGEA, congratulations to all the 2024 AGDAs winners.”
“The past year has been challenging for our local industry, but the overall attitude we are seeing across Australian studios is one of hope, support and determination. The AGDAs highlight that Australia produces games of international acclaim. We punch above our weight on a global stage and will continue to innovate and create in a way that only we know how. With more state and federal government funding available than ever before, the opportunities for Australian game developers continue to grow,”
- Ron Curry, CEO of IGEA
