I am a bit late on this, but I couldn’t let it pass unreported here. On January 29th, the great Portuguese website Planeta Sinclair held an online event in which they announced the results of the 2021 GOTY. Last night I watched the show and was very happy to see many quality games being made for the ZX Spectrum, and I have to say, what a well-organized event!
The game of the year went to Travel Through Time, by ZOSYA Entertainment. The game snatched the best of the year and was the winner of the Best Graphics and Best Load Screen categories.
