Axis by axis
Execution8 vs 7
Downwell leans harder on execution: Gunboot timing and split-second landings decide runs
Reads0 vs 1
Re-Volt leans harder on reads: Multiplayer item duels add a thin mind-game layer
Variance4 vs 4
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.
