    Voted for Space Strafer, and it is winning for now at least.

    You guys should all check this game out. It really is great.

    Space Expedition: Classic Adventure for me. A great platformer with superb graphics and a game i'm just really enjoying. Appeared from nowhere, a right little gem

    There are three games in the poll with the word 'space' in the title. I remember a few weeks back the same happened with the word 'Viking'.
    The first Dev to release 'Space Vikings' gets the win.

    I love that Space Strafer has only twelve players on Game Center and four have nominated it as their Game of the Week.

    My vote goes to Space Expedition, as I though it was a fantastic experience, but Space Strafer is definitely a great arcade game and it will stay on my device for longer than Space Expedition.

    Framed and Golfinity would also have won my vote in most other weeks, and I'm not sure what I would have done if Forgotten Shores was eligible!

    Love framed and space expedition (I mean) and hard for me to decide which one to vote, but since Framed was one of my most anticipated game. I'll vote that

    Space Expedition is a quality adventure game, and would have been my pick for GOTW if Space Strafer hadn't snuck up and bit me on the ass. I liked the empty, Metroid-esque atmosphere and enjoyed my first play through enough to do it another twice to see and collect everything. It's an easy recommendation.

    I like Framed too, although I've yet to finish the game. I don't think I've played anything quite like it.

    I voted for Space Strafer because it's a fun arcade game that like Bez mentioned will stay on my device longer than the others, it's the game I've spent most time with and because I'd hoped that getting the game some votes might get the game some much deserved attention.

    My vote went to Crystal Siege HD. It's a fun TD game but what I really like is the vast array of weapons and equipment for your hero and that the gameplay is more focused around the growth of your hero character.

    Random Heroes 3 is also a really fun game that I have been enjoying.

    Mr Particle Man won last week, and Space Strafer is winning this week. For at least this moment, all is right in the world.

    Hey, I developed space strafer and naturally voted for myself before reading the rules of the poll! Sorry! I repeal my vote and grant it to Space Expedition: Classic Adventure if possible? The graphics are pretty neat and I love a good platformer!

    Although the actual tally display cannot be altered I'll amend the count when posting the next poll.

    Thanks, I'll make sure to pay more attention to the rules next time. I guess I was over-excited :)

    About Half of all of the people on SS's GC leaderboards have voted for Space Strafer as GOTW. That says a lot about the quality of this game. If you have been lucky enough to play it - you love it.

    The poll currently only shows Space Expedition having 6 votes.


    Edit: Nevermind, I see AlexP vote was changed. I need to learn to read a little closer. Sorry.

    damn I bought Space Strafer too late and I already voted for Endless Doves which is still a great game but I like Space Strafer a bit more :/
