Montreal Tech Watch is reporting that MindHabits has just won the Telefilm Great Canadian Video Game Competition. I first posted about the competition here.

MindHabits produces computer software designed to help people reduce their stress levels and boost their self-confidence, using games that automatically retrain the way the mind responds to social stress. This patent pending technology is the result of a decade of research by scientists at McGill University, one of the world’s top medical research centers. The software – based on the emerging science of social intelligence – helps you practice the mind habit of focusing on positive social feedback, which in turn reduces stress levels and improves self-confidence.

Montreal is really showing why they are becoming the top video game hot spot in Canada. Vancouver may have more studios, but the quality of games isn’t the same as Montreal. Put another way, Montreal produces more video games that I’m interested in, both as a player and from a marketing point.
