BOTTOM 512 — Week 1 — Poll 5

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round Lower Bracket!

Each game in the lower bracket is still seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools! Every game in the lower bracket has already been defeated by another game in a 1-on-1 poll to get to this point. This is their chance to claw their way back into the main event... but the stakes are high. The games that lose in these polls are out of the tournament for good! The games that survive will face the next crop of upper bracket losers in the next round.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on Monday. Check back throughout the week to make sure you don't miss a vote!

HOW TO VOTE

This is easy. You only get one vote per poll. The game with the most votes wins. In the event of a tie, the higher seed advances, so don't get complacent!

Going with VVVVVV here just because VII is one of my lesser favourite entries in the RTK series. VVVVVV is a wonderful game with a wonderful soundtrack.

Agreed on VVVVVV being excellent. I think RTKX is overall better than VII.
I'll abstain here, as I don't think I can vote against either of these.

For those who enjoyed VVVVVV, I'd suggest trying Tower of Heaven (free online) if Flash isn't 100% dead now. Very similar "thinking outside the box" platforming and also has excellent chippy music.
(Although I say that as someone who very rarely plays platformers)
