The winners in Game Concept Challenge 2009 is Accelerando:

For a charming, unique and innovative game concept with pure mechanics, exciting online feature set and commersial possibilities, all presented in a confident and professional manner.

Accelerando is a fast-paced, 3rd person platformer where the music beat is law. Time your jumps to build up combos because the better you perform, the more intense the music gets.
The game world is played upon a cylinder where gravity always points "down", and there are no forbidden zones where you are not allowed to go; thus you are free to explore the entire world without restiction.
