The Webby Awards have been running for a long time, setup to ‘honor the best of the internet’. Its categories are now pretty broad seeing as almost everything is on the internet, so they range from pop culture, to TV and a lot more besides. Quite rightly games are celebrated too, and there were plenty of Indie winners in the line-up, including some excellent titles that can be found on the Switch eShop.

Notable winners were the beautiful platformer Hoa and the smash hit Unpacking, both of which scooped three awards each. Below are all the gaming winners that can be found on the Switch.
