man what a fucking rollercoaster. to start off, the jury definitely balanced out the voting by a lot, without it it would just be a popularity contest obliterated by vortrox and zoink (granted zoink did annihilate best player but like c’mon)

i will not be talking about anything platformer related because idgaf

Dead device: i know this is a controversial opinion, but that level is just not good. I’ve never liked the 4k rtx on ultra hd style popularized by bli. Some people would just say “YoUr JuSt MaD yOu Can’T dO bEtTeR” YES THATS EXACTLY WHY IM MAD, all these talented creators just keep pumping out the same repetitive levels that it gets boring and annoying, as for boogie winning, i would have preferred abducted but oh well.

Skeletal Shenanigans: I mean, I expected it, not to say im not disappointed as I would have much preferred space invaders but what can ya do

Flamewall: I don’t think this one is very controversial but I just wanted to say that I would have personally like Nazareth to do better, still glad flamewall won

Zeronium: HOOOO BOY is this one controversial. 1st of all, zeronium deserved this, after being nominated 4 YEARS IN A ROW and getting 2nd twice, I think he had this coming. As for zoink and vortrox, as mentioned it was kinda gonna be rigged w/o the jury anyways because the both have 900k and 1m respectively vs zeros 80k, not that either of them were bad, just vortrox won last year and zoink was guaranteed a win in classic player anyways.

Colon: the man himself said to vote someone else, still a great YouTuber but TCD/doggie prob should’ve won

Best video: lol sniped

zoink: listen we all saw this coming but HOLY FUCK GIVE EVERYONE ELSE SOME ROOM TO BREATHE GAH DAYUM

Yeah this is basically all my opinions on the semi controversial gd awards 2025

buh bye
