It's pretty simple: vote for the best game released in 2017.

There are also separate votes for best graphics and best sound in 2017. A poll on best loading screen will follow later.

Just a thought - could we do this with 3 votes?

The winner is going to be obvious!

I have just changed it so everyone has UP TO THREE VOTES.

Unfortunately this means [mention]Juan F. Ramirez[/mention]'s vote has been wiped off, so you'll have to revote.

Sword of Ianna, Crystal Kingdom Dizzy and the game I spent the most time on in 2017 - Pixel Quest 2000.

Thanks to whoever voted for Break/Space. :)

Sword of Ianna and remake of Crystal Kingdom Dizzy. They definitely stand out of the crowd. Didn't use my 3rd vote.

And I honestly didn't vote for my own games :)

It's probably time to call a result on this and the parallel polls soon. I"ll close them in about a week to allow for any further votes.

The results of the best-of-2017 polls are as follows:

Best game... The Sword of Ianna
Best graphics... The Sword of Ianna
Best sound... The Sword of Ianna

So a clean sweep for The Sword of Ianna - not exactly a shock result.

The top 3 in each category were as follows:

Best game
1st The Sword of Ianna
2nd Crystal Kingdom Dizzy 2017
3rd= Ooze
3rd= Pixel Quest 2000

Best graphics
1st The Sword of Ianna
2nd Crystal Kingdom Dizzy 2017
3rd Vallation 128K

Best sound
1st The Sword of Ianna
2nd= Crystal Kingdom Dizzy 2017
2nd= Horace and the Robots

Unfortunately I do not seem to be able to close the polls. Could one of the mods do that?

Also I had planned to do a poll for best loading screen, but am now not going to get round to it. If someone else would like to do it, I have already drawn up a list of loading screens from 2017 (both new games and loading screen remakes), but really it would also be necessary to post images of the screens. If anyone is interested in setting that up, let me know and I'll post the list I have.
