PLEASE READ BELOW! Thanks for the massive participation in the polls last week! "Beat Hazard Ultra" took first place convincingly with 39 votes! "DariusBurst SP" drew second place with 23 votes, and "Eufloria HD" garnered 20 votes to claim 3rd place. No mean feat with 129 total votes counted! Congrats to all the entrants! First part is nomination where every member can vote up to 5 games to be included in the poll. 10 games with the most nominations will then be added to the poll on Saturday. Poll will remain open until next Wednesday and whichever game has the max votes, will be the GOTW. Please note: 1) Devs cannot vote for their own games. If your game is in the poll, you can't vote. You are free to ask TA forum posters in your game release thread to vote for your game... but please don't post multiple messages about it. 2) This voting is for TA members - no outsiders allowed. You cannot bring outsiders to join simply to vote and increase your ranking in this thread. Notice of this poll will be given in the threads of all nominated games. Additional games that spring up in the next few days will be added to the OP, so no worries. Please wait until Thursday to begin giving nominations - this is so that we can get the majority of games listed before making decisions. Feel free to help out and list games I haven't added yet. I'll post the pending NZ releases to alert the community to them.

A lot of platformers for me to check out. Oh and that stealth game, love those two genres. Edit: dammit, Mailman is only on iPad.
It is definitely gonna be a close GOTW poll this week. My predictions for top 3 be Beat Sneak Bandit, Pizza vs. Skeletons and LoE2 (in no particular order).
DEFIANTLY first place goes to League of Evil 2 2nd. Beat Sneak Bandit This is hard. Pizza Vs. Skeleton's, or Little Acorns? I seriously think that this is a tie. Wait no, PvS has original game-play! But wait, Little Acorns HAS A FREAKING SQUIRREL!!! So, 3rd place goes to............ 3rd. Little Acorns
It's definitely not going to be an easy week for me. I've bought most of the releases this week, and LoE 2 feels a bit lack luster compared to them. Its amazing what hype can do for a game. Hell, I'm bound to not even nominate LoE 2 for the simple fact that they left out jump confirmation sound. They could've at least made a new sound. I mean the gameplay is too quiet for me.
They said that they are going to add the jump sound into the game in a little bit. Probably the next update. EDIT: They WILL add it in the next update
Pizza Vs. Skeletons Beat Sneak Bandit Little Acorns Don't ever nominate more than 3. I'd like to put Little Acorns in there, but LoE2 just beats it out. I think LoE2 is a much better game, but the differences from the first game aren't too great. Edit: Going to go with Little Acorns. LoE2 is just too similar to the first game. Little Acorns is a gem among the three big releases this week. Seriously, check it out guys.
This week's list is looooong! I'm still checking things out. How many platformers are there this week?
Wow - this is a crazy week. So much to play I've to check out Pizza vs. Skeleton and Beat Sneak Bandit first!
Only bought two this week, do love LOE2 but ... Little Acorns gets my vote, near perfect platform game.
I bought LoE2 and Beat Sneak so far. LoE2 is a disappointment to me. It's more of the same with a new skin, which is OK, but not terribly exciting. I don't think it deserves GOTW. Beat Sneak Bandit I've just started playing, but already I think this one is a definite winner. Original, fun and great graphics/style. I may also get Pizza vs. Skeletons. I got the lite version to try, at least.
