    Sorry for the delay, the nominations will run until early afternoon Tuesday then poll for three days.

    The winners of last week's Game of the Week poll are pending...

    Last week's GOTW thread:
    [FONT=&quot]http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=269113[/FONT]
    The first part is nomination where every member can vote up to 5 games to be included in the poll. Releases active before Saturday are eligible (even if they aren't listed in this original post), weekend releases can be nominated the following poll. 10 games with the most nominations will then be added to the poll on Sunday. Poll will remain open until next Wednesday and whichever game has the max votes, will be Touch Arcade forum's Game of the Week.

    Please note:
    1) Developers, publishing partners, or affiliates cannot vote for their own games. If your game is in the poll, you can't vote for it. 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 with some activity. If you have to ask someone to create a new account to vote, you're doing it wrong.
    3) Suspect votes may be void.
    4) Game updates, no matter how significant are not eligible for GOTW. There are enough new games to nominate that haven't been considered before.


    Notice of this poll may be given in the threads of all nominated games.


    You can see new games by looking at AppShopper.com and checking the "New"tab.

    Lara Croft GO. One of the best puzzle games i have ever played. Not so difficult but not cakewalk puzzles presented in SE's high quality visuals and sounds, with that Tomb Raider charm that actually made the game feel like an adventure game rather than a puzzle game.

    Thanks, sapphire. Did you see Tasos' review of 'Dandy'?

    I did, pretty good, although I disagree with the bit about the lack of procedural generation in enemy types. Also, he hasn't beaten even a quarter of the game yet :p He spoke about enemies in the back shooting continuously, however those enemies only shoot if you stop moving :)

    My vote went to Bullet Boy. It's the only game I've been able to play off of the list. That's not to say that it's a bad game. I'm definitely enjoying it, enough to actually vote this week. I'm a total sucker for these types of games though. =oP

    No love for Dandy either? I would have hoped shmup fans would find it interesting.

    Ah right, I know you've been limiting yourself to one purchase per week. Well, I would recommend wish-listing Dandy for a weak week :p
