Spoiler blocker❌❌❌

Dryden absolutely dominated, the visuals, music, gameplay and lore were all up to par with a fully released game

Lixian: has 1.3 million subs Dryden: has 2k subs Lixian: wins the community voting Judges: *surprised pikachu face*

Don’t get me wrong, Lixian’s game was cool, but Dryden was absolutely robbed of this win. The man literally composed his own music for this game. He made such an original and unique game and I am dying to see him expand upon it. I think it was a mistake including the community in the vote. Most average community members are not experienced with the time and effort that goes into creating these games, or what makes a good game. Plus, Lixian has a much larger audience than Dryden, so of course he is going to win the community vote. It turned into a popularity contest for people not games and that’s honestly so disappointing.

Actually insane how talented Dryden is. Props to all the devs but the amount of content he managed to get done is crazy.

PHEW, this was definitely the most intense few weeks I’ve ever done! Thanks for having me on, what an honor to compete alongside these devs 😄

nah, Dryden's game was just better, Lixian's great, but Dryden's just fit best with everything

It is genuinely offensive that Dryden didn't win... Stuck to theme, showed immense resolve in adapting to the modifiers, completely original art and music, boss fights!?!? If it wasn't for the +2 from a community vote of 1.2 million, it'd be obvious. Also crazy that that was a +2 in the first place.

Insane Dryden did not win, the game was so polished and thought out, all the mechanics together made perfect sense, the implementation of the curveballs he was thrown fit it like they were originally planned, the artstyle was absolutely gorgeous and polished, and he composed multiple pieces of music.

Dryden 100% should have won that...

I don’t see how Dryden didn’t win this. - Better Music - Better Visual - Better implementation of the themes - Better gameplay loop - Better Lore

Everybody knows Dryden is the real winner 🏆 can’t believe he didn’t get first place

There is no shot Dryden did not win

I'm surprised the judges let Lixian through to the end honestly. I feel like there was popularity bias and the community voted for their favorite person rather than their favorite game for sure. Not to mention, Lixian's bias with Markiplier and Momento Mori just felt unfair in his favor too. I mean, Lixian's game has no replayability, was unfinished, unpolished, and there were multiple complaints about it... Whereas everyone seemed to genuinely enjoy DisInherited and everyone, especially the dev, seemed stoked about that game whereas Lixian wasn't even excited or even sure if he'd finish the game...

To be honest I was surprised that zombie game survived the first round but outvoting Dryden seems a little too much.

Please don’t let the community vote for the finale again, it was definitely biased. But both games were cool to see!

Thanks for having me! this competition was super fun and the video turned out great

Having a community vote turns to a popularity contest, instead of picking the best game. Dryden definitely robbed imo.

Next time keep the names of the developers hidden in the community poll to make it less of a popularity contest. Just show the games and let people decide based on that.
