[Blackthornprod]

Which TEAM wins and goes on to the finals in your opinion? Team PURPLE, or Team GREEN?

[Caiyde]

Lighthouse Dev definitely won the challenge for his team with that addition

[EvanC]

The decision to add the island with a lighthouse was inspired and totally won Team Green the challenge. It provided a visual anchor in the endless sea that was provided in the base game and also provided a focal point for the gameplay

[じゅげむ-sb]

dev 3 on each team is just, DAMN I love what they did with what they had

[MtnDewWarrior]

The simple menu on the green teams looks great, adding that light house to the game as the main defense point was a game changer.

[jaxpestTTV]

While I really like the visuals and aesthetics of Team Purple, there's a lot of lost potential there and Team Green has a massive advantage in gameplay. All in all, Team Green easily takes this one

[justinquiring]

Green had the advantage of cohesion and an early established genre. That way the later devs could focus on polish and tweaking while purple was still changing how the core mechanics worked every round. Green felt like they worked together really well and created the most functional game

[-M-]

Team purple’s game had much better mechanics, but the time acceleration and the removal of the cables to connect things to make the little particles you need to click kind of ruined it. Meanwhile, green’s game was very simple in comparison, but the third dev added and improved so much stuff he fixed that. Overall, I think I need to give the win to green team, because even if the way the energy and cash management was implemented at the beggining of purple’s game was just genious, they just ended up removing a lot of that, and the final game was mediocre, while green team started off worse but was able to fix it at the end.

[SilentRegret]

Holy crap. One of the best starts I’ve seen in a vid. The guy that set up the base did a great job with the time he was given.

[xecense]

I kinda of wish they had a round two or more time, wanted to see these games developed a bit more

[dulguun]

Next one should be 10v10 where there's only 2 teams

[michalloots]

What happened to the FINALS? It has been 9 months & the challenge was never completed?

[myrrysmiasi]

I was crushed that the second dev on Team Purple didn't get rid of the defense button even tho he didn't want to take the game in that direction 😅 there could have been so much more of a difference between these games

[Kikolek]

i loved the part where blackthornprod added his own artstyle and final boss at the end of the game

[His-Games]

To really push the limits of this format, you could do a tree structure - one person makes a prototype, two people build on that prototype, then two people develop on that game. It obviously requires a lot of people, already seven for instance with only three passes, but it could be really interesting comparing the products at each stage

[grass]

team purple could have got much potential for the gameplay, the day and night cycle is very interesting.

[Vexlith]

This series is seriously my favourite one I've ever seen it's just so great to watch people make completely random games from the others

[raptoria]

Both games look really cool, each dev did a great job! I think I’d choose Green as the winner, but Purple’s game was still really good.

[Will_Forge]

I have to say, I like this version of the show even more than the standard single line of devs. It's cool to see the base game fulfilled in different ways, and it feels nicer knowing the base dev has a higher chance of seeing their initial vision come through in the end.

[ELVS]

as plants versus zombies fan im happy the first team is leaning towards the genre more, missed opportunity to call it PANELS VS PIRATES tho. the more tidier game e is good.the other game's doesnt cut it for me, it looks messy
