Thanks to no deadzone Electronic Super Joy is basically unplayable for me, the little guy always starts to run to the left if I don't make sure the 360 pad is perfectly centered. So beware if you have one of those. Maybe I'll try keyboard.
 
Im afraid of Bad Rats.
Never seen any gameplay of it but checking this thread has made me fearful of even daring to do it.

Do it! Don't watch any videos just jump in! ( FFS, only when there's a sale on though! )

I've a couple of "Bad Rats" in my inventory together with some "Secret of the Magic Gems" keys. Hmmm, might have to pump my post count so i can get modbot to spread the love.

You lucky people have a grace period while i read how to get my keys out of my gift box and into modbot. I'll be back :)

Wait until the games have been pulled from Steam and then sell them for a truckload of TF2 keys. :p

Is there a way to find my friend via his account name?

Not any more. Valve binned the ability to search for friends via account name and e-mail address yonks ago, presumably due to security concerns.

It took me ages to write this crappy reply SteamGAF. Current location has really bad connectivity. Gladly all is going well though.

Just wanted to say the SteamOS, the jist I got from it before the page stopped loading is interesting indeed. Along with the steambox stuff , though looks like a lot of that info is missing.

Yeah, the gist of the hardware announcement is, "Steam Machine will hit the market in 2014, but for now we need your help developing and designing our prototype! More details soon."

Train Simulator updated into 2014. All the achievements for 2013 are gone. The store page for it says it has trading cards, but there's nothing on my badge page.

I had a dream that my girlfriend released a sprite and map editor on Steam and she made $12,000 in sales on her first day. Pretty damn good. We also lived in some kind of swanky hotel. I told her, and apparently she had a dream where she sold an art exhibition to a museum for $28,000. Dreamland cash, dolla dolla bills y'all.

I dreamt that I coughed up somewhere north of $50 for an Ubi publisher pack because Tintin was included in it but not available for individual purchase.

Speaking of Train Sim, it seems Trains vs Zombies 2 was yanked from the store a couple of months back. It wasn't a standalone app but rather just the base game with the TvZ 2 DLC (and a few other general pieces), but now it's not available at all. Given the full name is "Train Simulator 2013 - Trains Vs Zombies 2", though, it may return with the 2014 moniker.

Feels great to purchase a $55 game for $0.75 just before it was released. But too bad for you :/

Not quite, checking the community discussion it seems like the DLC packs that are included for free when you buy the 2014 version aren't given to those who do the upgrade.

The app id is the same but the sub users actually purchase has changed: 2013 was 17251 while 2014 is 32159.

Ok, Rocketbirds - Hardboiled Chicken finished. Only 3.2 hours and I had to force myself to finish it, a little like work. That should speak for itself.
No way I'm looking for the hidden shit and playing the coop side of it.

Played Ittle Dew for a ittle bit (heh) last night.

That game is seriously charming.

Basically it is a top-down Zelda for children with great hand drawn art. The primary protagonist is a little girl as well so it would be great for those of you with young daughters. Puzzles are easy and the game checkpoints on all screen transitions so it is extremely forgiving.

Highly recommended regardless as the art is just gorgeous and it has a great sense of whimsy about it.

I wanted to wait for actual reviews to come out, but after reading the various impressions, I took the dive and bought Shadow Warrior. £21.17 via the Humble Store Widget. The discount expires in a couple of hours. I will post some impressions when I get the chance to give it a spin.

So how do these early access games work with fixes? I've noticed several state of decay fixes since it came out but I don't remember seeing any patches download.
