Woryurs of Woberyun by Willy Elektrix: 2.5.
Just too fast for me and the controls were totally punishing. Could work with a smoother movement engine or...some other change. Loved the graphics, sfx, and dialogue

TheSuperAmazingBlueBallGame by foreverblue2: 4
[s]So far, this is the best[/s] title taken by Jumpman, sorry. It reminds me a bit of Hexagon, but not so punishing. Very clever.

Questicle by Spoonweaver: 3
I liked that this was a distillation of the Mario RPG timed combat thing down to a single button press, but it wasn't super compelling.

Jumpman by RMSephy: 5
Loved this game to death. Wish it was a high score game so I could keep playing it. I loved the thumping rhythm of the sound effects, it reminded me of a much quieter Robotron somehow.

Double Pumping by misac: 2
Cute graphics and sfx and everything, but it's not really much of a game, eh? Could fit well in a collection of one-button competitive games though.

[s](I'll be editing in more votes later)[/s] I'll let everyone else vote on Simple, no need to kick a dead horse.

Amazing Super Blue Ball Game: 5) The right balance of fun and infuriating. I love the music.

Jumpman: 4) Great controls but the difficulty feels very uneven. It's too easy and then gets suddenly impossibly hard around level 5.

Questicle: 2) Works likes it's supposed to, but there isn't much to it.

Double Pumping: 2) Ditto my comment for Questicle. I did appreciate the 2 player component though.

Simple: 0) I wasn't amused.

For Mogri's reference, here are the restrictions for Woryurs of Woberyun.
Area: Rank 3
Resolution: Rank 1
Controls: Rank 1
Color Depth: Rank 3
Graphics: Rank 2

Warning: There will be a sequel to simple, someday. It will have more levels, as requested by foreverblue2. Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Maybe. I might toy with the idea of only going right, the only thing I can think of using that for would be timing games.

Nobody said the voting was over!

TheSuperAmazingBlueBallGame: 5
Great fun, nice polish (music fades, remembered high scores, etc), entry out of left field.
Double Pumping: 2
Multiplayer was a clever addition. I did enjoy this, for a few seconds.
Simple: 0
Failed to make the obvious Never Go West reference
Jumpman: 3.9
This is the sort of game I was hoping for out of this contest, though I didn't stick to it for that long. Maybe it was missing something.
Questicle: 2.4
I thought it was too easy, though also fun for a short while. I also kind of wish Spoon would try something more creative instead of more timing minigames.
Woryurs of Woberyun: 3.9
You need to practice for a bit before you can properly enjoy it, which definitely counts against it, but I did enjoy this one a lot. Nicely presented.

It's the 24th somewhere*.

Nevertheless, voting is over now. Put down your pencils.
