Wow, Zkeep sounds great!

 

Pas de Deux is mind-melting. It's amazing how a level seems impossible and then you clear it perfectly on the next try.

There's a few really fun ones in this category.  It's hard to pick a favorite!

This was really tough for me. Minotaur is an amazing implementation for Battle City, and another game I'm looking forward to seeing a full release for! Beyond Parsec and Space Instigators are really fun as well.

Indeed it is hard. They are all great games and one choice seems too little. This is completely opposite to parliament voting; sometimes I can't think of any electoral candidate I want to vote for, and end up picking the least worst candidate to run parliament. Whereas the AHA's are exciting; the voting I am most happy to do and meditate on making the right choice and look forward to seeing the winner. Each of our votes are important and make a difference. The AHA's are a great competition to vote for.
