Axis by axis
Execution7 vs 8
OTXO leans harder on execution: One-hit-death gunplay in slow motion demands precise aim
Reads1 vs 0
FlatOut leans harder on reads: AI racers don't adapt; multiplayer reads are shallow
Variance3 vs 5
OTXO leans harder on variance: Randomised room layouts and ability draws per run
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.
