Little surprised by the lack of attention Max Gentlemen is getting. It's a superb and original arcade game by the makers of Organ Trail. While it's not meant to be, if you want to consider this a nomination, cow...by all means do.
Swing Copers winning Gotw over Motorsport Manager. I guess that just explains why the App Store is swamped with trash
That's just the Touch Arcade editor's pick - which is different from this forum poll; the editors are nutty sometimes often preferring more casual games. In this community pool Swing Copters only has 1 nomination so might not even make the poll while Motorsport Manager has 6+ nominations as one of the top contenders. Let's see what happens.
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.

My vote went to Motorsport Manager, really a nice management sim that I will be playing for a long time to come.
I voted for Dodo Master. It's a fun and challenging platformer with loads of charm. I love it. The last two weeks have been pretty quiet on the GOTW forum, so I'm excited to see where the votes fall after a much larger and fairly even nomination pool.
I missed the nomination portion, but there were three standouts this week for me: 44 Keys, 8-Bit War, and my pick for game of the week Deep under the Sky.
Dodo Master on iPhone just went free (no IAP), iPad edition is $0.99... for anyone who hadn't tried it yet. Thanks to AndyC83 for the notice.
