Why are we including World of Goo, then? Whatever.
How about a Best Spoof, then? We just had a demakes competition, I figure at least one of the entries should get a place.

IWBTG 1.0 came out this year. Probably takes the first place in "most challenging".

Bakley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden should be in best humor games.
Megaman Roguelike is one of the best roguelikes this year, and Fatherhood seems good to but I haven't played it enough.

Iji isn't really a platformer, it falls into the more obscure category of Run 'n Gun. I disagree. Formally, it's a platformer - run'n'guns always have strictly linear progression through the stages afaik, Iji seems to be inspired by some platformers but no run'n'guns, Iji is not even an arcade game. But it probably does fall into the obscure category of cinematic platformer.  |

Was Everyone Loves Active 2 made in 2008? If so, I'd say that belongs in the Best Shoot 'em Up category.

Maybe you guys should include this years compo winners to the list, at least as runner ups in their respective categories.
Especially stuff like Gang Garrison 2 and Soundless Mountain 2 seemed to have gained quite a bit of outside reputation.
In fact, maybe just a general link to the competitions in the list. Seeing that the 2007 list is the most viewed thread on TIGSource (by far) mentioning the compo games (which were all good) would give them the attention they deserve.
Just my two cent though :D

Best Roguelike: Legerdemain, Mage Guild...
I don't know any more that have come out this year, but those two are recent and quite good. And yes, there needs to be a category for this, they're different from other games at least in people's perceptions.

I'm not dead everyone! I hope you all forgive me for the year-long absence! I will try to keep it up this year! It'd be nice for some catching up... high schools a bitch! It's been keeping me busy!

Oh, awesome! Wondered where you'd gone vanished to. I missed your daily updates. You must be hella dedicated to put that much focus into high school. Either that or your procrastination has gone TO THE NEXT LEVEL.  But whatever. Good to have you back. |
