Well,time to vote =)
-Most addictive complete flash game:
-Heli Attack 2 (3points)
Not only is it one of the best coded flash shooters (if not the
best one),but its also
great fun in almost each coffee break =)
-2 Kingdoms (2 points)
no other flash rpg game features such an incerdible one man
effort,such nice graphics and solid gameplay as this one
-Jammed again (1 point)
Thanks to my job i don´t have much time to play,so i mainly play
games which are ideal for a coffee break and this is a great one
for need =)

-Most innovative complete flash game
-samorost (3 points)
technically its not impressive but there are few games which try to
be something else than the every day action games and also do it
that well
-Kart Racer (2 points)
i´d be doing somehing wrong if i wouldn´t like my own game
-Twiddlestix (1 point)
yep,i know this game concept existed in several ways on consoles
but i haven´t seen it done in flash before and its also done good
=)

-most impressive game engine:
-Strille´s game engine (3 points)
I love everything Strille shows here and especially this thingy,by
far the best jump´n´run engine done in flash i´ve ever seen
-Marmotte´s Fight game engine (2 points)
it just has about everything a fighting game could have,i wish he´d
do a game with it featuring his own great graphics style
-Krill M´s OBJ engine (1 point)
there are so many gta2 clones tried in flash but i think this one is the best


-best graphic artist
-daydream (3 points)
he deserves it for each and every pixel which he fills with a color
in a genuine way like noone else here
-marmotte (2 points)
too bad most here haven´t seen his shooter yet,its wicked,another
great example are his jump´n´run graphics,can´t wait to see it
finished =)
-squize (1 point)
whose games look more like the real arcade and console classics than
squize´s (no answer expected )

-best flash game development team
-kazoowee (3 points)
i know,pitty to vote for my own team,but well,i´m proud of it =)
-squarecircleco (2 points)
who coded game of the year on miniclip?
right,pred did
-1coin1play (1 point)
and who published more great games in the last year than anyone else on
the board?
right,1coin1play did

-best flash game programmer
-tomsamson (3 points)
sorry,but well..
-strille (2 points)
if he creates a game with one of his engines and it only rocks half
as much as the stuff he shows here every now and then,he´s got a
blockbuster =)
-pred (1 point)
hes working on several things right now which are too sweet to be
flash
(too bad having to pick 3,i could vote for each one in this
category )

-best flash game development related application:
-Screenweaver (3 points)
its incredible what you can do with this app,only flash studio pro comes close (which has more commands but is harder to use)
-mappy (2 points)
just the best tilemap ed right now
-swift 3d xpress (1 point)
its sweet to turn your drawings into 3d objects inside flash

[PeterJJ]

i vote 3 points for heli attack in most addicting flash game as its the only game i played long on miniclip.
then i vote 2 points for 2Kingdoms as i´ve seen it the other day and i didn´t thnk that could be done in flash

Kart Racer rocks,i give it 3 point for most innovative gae.

most impressive game engine goes to space control,that game is sex i love space games

i don´t know any of the graphic artists but i´ve seen alot of daydream´s stuff on the board and that was cool,so i vote 3 points to daydream for best graphic artist

i also don´t know much about the gamedevelopment teams listed but i liked kart racer so i give kazoowee 3 point and heli attack was cool ,it gets 2points

tomsamson was in nearly all posts here and he seems to help a lot of people with code,i give him 3 points

Im not going to vote for the best single coder, i dont really think that there is one, everyone has strengths and weaknesses... and not everyone is permitted / inclined to post all of their work here on FK.

[marmotte]

ok, it's my turn, better late than never i guess ^_^
sorry, but i never liked to vote, and give notes or whatever to people, but this time i really don't have the choice i'm afraid

-----------------------
best graphic artist
-----------------------

1. ferry halim
-----------------------
# though i hesitated with daydream, i simply love some of the universes of ferry halim... so light, cute, peacefull, and constant.

2. daydream
-----------------------
# he's simply great. i love all his backgrounds, tiles... extremely well done... i put it second also because his characters/sprites are not the greatest... i don't know, it's like if they are missing a little something...

3. squize
-----------------------
# again, his characters are not the greatest, but his respect with retro style (he even create the fonts by himself!) is simply great... disadvantage though: maybe too oriented in shooting games, JBJ being the exception probably

> additional note
-----------------------
# blinkOk. i really like his swift experience, though i don't really like his designs; it's simply not my style. now it's maybe a little bit harsh not to vote for him simply because his design doesn't please me (since it has almost nothing to do with best graphic artist), but let me say the competition was rude anyway

-----------------------
best flash development team
-----------------------

1. 1coin1play
-----------------------
# i know how squize works... (hello babe ). and let me say that he never gives up before finishing his current project. never... plus he will never start a new one before the old one is finished... really, i have to learn from him .

2. 3.
-----------------------
sorry, i really cannot vote further for this one since i'm not too familiar with the other teams, which is probably lame... and i really don't want to vote for xxx because it's the most voted here...

-----------------------
Most addicting complete flash game
-----------------------

1. twiddlestix
-----------------------
# i spent a lot of time on this one, really... maybe something lacking is a replay value... it didn't stop me from being totally addicted when it came out

2. zoo keeper
-----------------------
# i don't think it has been nominated before, but it's hell addictive!!! it's replay value is really great. it's one of these flash games adapted in GBA format...

3. cave racer
-----------------------
# very little game, and lot of potential... repetitive, but addictive... how ironic...

> additional note
-----------------------
# what? i'm surely the only one that hasn't voted for heli attack 2...?
i'm really sorry for this one, but i'll be honest: i tried to play HA2 at several occasions (separated by several days and weeks), but... for me it was not addictive at all... i'm not talking about gfx or the engine here, just the game...

-----------------------
Most innovative complete flash game
-----------------------

1. fast froots
-----------------------
# i didn't play a lot with this one, but it was just incredibly well done. not only the engine, but the gfx too!

2. 2 kingdoms
-----------------------
# ok, sorry lux, i never played your game deeply... that said, you have put some awesome work into it (just looking at the work on your site, designs, art etc... it's already incredible)... so i vote you 2 points. the game itself is really not innovative, but damn! you put so much effort in it! and really, it pays.

2. samorost
-----------------------
# weird and experimental... nice trip.


-----------------------
Best flash game development related application
-----------------------

sorry, i haven't used any...

-----------------------
Most impressive game engine
-----------------------

1. strille´s sonic platform engine demo
-----------------------
# simply awesome. now of course the playability of sonic is not perfect (i didn't say it's bad!)(surely some values to change), but the engine by itslef is just awesome... congratulations

2. percypea's mario kart-like engine
-----------------------
# ok, this one created something new for flash users... i never used it myself in order to create something (i like classic 2D games), but the engine is just great...

3. marmotte's fighting game engine
-----------------------
# i'm truely sorry to vote for myself (i really hate that, since there are so many beautiful stuffs around me), but i never saw any really good fighting game in flash, and i like them... and the fact is, the last version of my fighting game (never posted anywhere) was just superior everywhere (it's rare for me to be really happy for one of my work!)

phew... like [m], i didn't vote for any flash coder... maybe because there's a lot of quality all around, which is an excellent thing
