Check the spreadsheet. It's listed.
Oops sorry I have an old navigator. The search didn't work properly.
The spreadsheet only lists games that are eligible in the main category?

I'm honestly surprised to see The Binding of Isaac Rebirth go up as a port/remaster considering it's a complete remake with a wealth of new content. The game is far from a cursory upport.
Please ad my game: Detective Case and Clown Bot in: Murder in the Hotel Lisbon

We released on Steam in July 18th this year. We released on our website in December 2013 so it's a re-release? (or not?)

These have all been added now.
Yes, that's fine.

It seems to be DLC -- is it new content, or is it just aesthetic stuff? Basically is it playable stuff like Mario Kart DLC, or is it horse armor?
It is an entirely new campaign

Then it's eligible.
Cool, thanks.

Just my personal vendetta against the game.
Seriously though, the list isn't comprehensive. If something is clearly eligible by fitting within the rules, you can safely vote for it. The parser will still pick it up.
Awesome. If I'm going to include Tokyo New World Record: Operation Abyss (5pb/Mages, Vita), which just got announced for localization under a different title (Operation Abyss: New Tokyo Legacy), which title should I use?
If you wanted to add them to the list, the other imports on my list are Flowers (Innocent Grey, PC/Vita/PSP), and New LovePlus + (Konami, 3DS) but I don't think it has enough new content to count as a new release.

Yes. List it as Payday 2 DLC.
Generally it's easiest if you use the localized title, which makes future comparison easiest. But it shouldn't matter as we can pair them up anyway.
New LovePlus+ will be listed as a rerelease.

Liking the rules this year. Seem simplified and achieve the goal of letting people vote for the stuff that was new to them (i.e. in their region, platform, and language) this past year, while reserving the awards for the true new releases. Nice job!
In terms of missing titles: beyond the Hexcells titles, there's also Kero Blaster (PC/iOS, Studio Pixel), Monument Valley (iOS/And, Ustwo), Framed (iOS, Loveshack), and Twodots (iOS/And, BetaWorks) as prominent mobile titles that might get some attention.
All three Hexcells games are separate games that are bought individually, so I don't see any reason they'd be lumped together.

Thanks, charlequin! I really wanted to make the rules simpler and also avoid as much of the "is it eligible?" arguments, while still highlighting the new stuff of 2014. I'm glad it seems to be working so well for people.
I added the titles you listed, as well.

Thanks, we tried. I've been pleasantly surprised at the lack of complaints over cutting LTTP.

Agreed on the larger point, it's nice to have the opportunity to vote for pretty much anything released this year.
Since I didn't see my specific concern addressed, and I totally have a horse in that race, I'm still of the opinion something like BoI: Rebirth should be counted as new content considering it essentially rolls up a very large, new expansion into a remake.
Not that it will prevent my voting, obviously.
Thanks for that, I actually have 2 contenders there and hadn't noticed they were missing.
Ah okay. I thought it would be odd to have a different entry for each individual DLC. What an elegant solution
True enough, and I don't mean to belabor the point but since the mechanics and UI are identical they almost seem like level packs rather than separate games to me. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing.
Yo could I get this list? Or maybe add an extra column indicator in the spreadsheet?

Well sufficiently content-rich level packs are eligible too!
They're all in the spreadsheet already, but:

Would The Last Door: Collector's Edition be eligible to vote on? It's a collection of episodic content released between 2013 and early 2014, and features "new scenes and puzzles, enhanced graphics, unlockable bonuses, and remastered sound."
Just want to double check ahead of time.
