Arkanoid DS leans Execution (Pure Mechanics); FlatOut 2 leans Execution (Pure Mechanics).
Arkanoid DSFlatOut 2
Axis by axis
Execution8 vs 7
Arkanoid DS leans harder on execution: Precise paddle control to keep the ball alive
Reads0 vs 1
FlatOut 2 leans harder on reads: No adaptive opposition worth modeling
Variance3 vs 3
Even - both lean on variance about the same.
Optimization4 vs 4
Even - both lean on optimization about the same.
Two games can score the same on an axis and still test it in very different ways - read each rationale, not just the number.
