What game? I do this for fun and have no intention of stopping my work. And some people really seem to love it. I'm certainly not a good UI designer, but the user community is very helpful and has good ideas.

YouAMP is great but not the kind of user interface I want to use in car for playing music.

Playing videos was the main motivation for me to start developing MediaBox.

It's simple IMHO. It's a slim core with a bunch of plugins. It's getting simpler with each release (in terms of program architecture).

Yes, but they all exist because, apparently, the original media player from Nokia was not flashy enough or didn't provide some features, or was too restricted in terms of filetypes it can play.

They both do their job very well. But some people like it flashy, or at least finger-friendly.
In terms of RAM consumption, YouAMP is not much better than MediaBox. Indexes require space.
