Gemini Rue is good. That Blackwell series from the same publisher/developer is even better.

It's nice to see that these guys are finally on Steam though! It sure took a long time.

(Steam codes for previous owners pls)

Non-Steam owners can request a Steam key:

@WadjetEyeGames: If you bought Gemini Rue from Wadjet Eye, contact me and I'll give you a steam unlock code. Once I get them, anyway!

@WadjetEyeGames: Regarding the unlock codes for current owners of Gemini Rue, email me please! http://t.co/t0jGMrWN

Gemini Rue has achievements/cloud saves?

Success.

Adventure games are a genre I think that could really benefit from achievements actually and I'm typically a person that doesn't care about them. They could be used to change how you interact with certain characters, or for exploring different paths in the game's narrative. I doubt there is anything as sophisticated as that here though. It's probably just a bunch of "clear chapter 1" style achievements.

 

[Zero-Crescent]

Gemini Rue on Steam, also 15% off for release or something: ($9.99 normally, $8.49 with discount)

http://store.steampowered.com/app/80310/

That's surprising, because I remember them saying a while back that Steam rejected it when they first submitted it. Guess they must've fixed whatever problems Steam had with it and resubmitted. Good thing, since this looks like a really good point-and-click.

Honestly, I think it probably has more to do with attitudes within Valve changing than the game being "fixed."

 

[Glass Rebel]

FS still available? Didn't see anyone quote you.

Yup, sending you the key per PM in a minute.

Edit: Oh fuck, I meant SpaceChem. I'm sorry. You still want it?

Telltale games have had some really neat trophy sets (PS3 achievements lolololol) that they then fail to bring over to PC

 

[Dog Problems]

Aww shit, Gemini Rue. That's an easy double-dip.

 

[Lissar]

To be fair to Valve, there is a glut of point-and-click adventure games that don't really have a place on Steam. They're often fairly cheap looking, or otherwise low quality, and ask for fairly steep prices, like $25.00 for something that is done in flash or that adventure game maker engine.

I can admit this and I'm a fan of adventure games.

No excuses on Gray Matter and the Black Mirror series! Though actually I have physical editions so I can't complain (and I don't really blame Valve for it since I don't know what the situation is. It could be the publisher stalling or just not wanting them on Steam. I have no idea so I can't pass judgment. I just find it exceedingly curious.)

I asked the publisher before Gray Matter's US release if it would be on Steam, but they just directly told me it wouldn't. Not sure if they got declined or what.

how's astro tripper for everyone

Fun from what I've played so far, worth the $5.

 

[epmode]

So all previous owners of Gemini Rue will be able to get a Steam key. GG

I would love to see the Black Mirror series on Steam. I've never actually played any of them.

 

[Sanic]

Yup, sending you the key per PM in a minute.

Edit: Oh fuck, I meant SpaceChem. I'm sorry. You still want it?

Actually, no, since I don't really have any interest in that . Thanks anyway!

 

[Tomodachi]

Same here, never played them but really would like to.

And I really would like to see Gray Matter too. I woulndn't buy it (I already own it and don't want yet to play it again), but the game really could use some more visibility via steam sales and such. It's a pity, really.

 

[Dog Problems]

Viva Media has put a lot of games on Steam so I'm surprised Gray Matter hasn't been released on it. I've e-mailed other developers in the past who have made a particular point-and-click about their game getting put on Steam and I'm always told "Valve doesn't see the genre as profitable so they're reluctant to put them up," or something along those lines.

 

[Sanic]

If you haven't noticed the thread, indieroyale.com is doing something similar to the humble bundle. Basically, you can pay $2 or more to get four games, three of which can register on Steam.

Basically, if you just bought Gemini Rue, you got fucked. Apparently you don't get a steam key for that one though.

I had a great time with the first Trine so I'm definitely down for this. Glad to see they started at a more reasonable price point this time as well.

If Valve really is pushing off point-and-click adventures, respect -10

Everyone get Gemini Rue so they may rethink this over

Trine's first hour or so was good, but after that it became kind of a drag, how's Trine 2 different?

Do you think the dev will give Steam keys for those who buy from this bundle? If he is I will jump on that bundle.

I don't get why Valve will allow some games on the store, like all the hidden object stuff, but not others. It's really weird.

Of course, I broke down and bought Gray Matter from Gamestop/Impulse anyway, so I guess it's moot now.

Hm, Frozenbyte as publisher? Thought Atlus USA was handling it.

So quote to see steam key for sanctum.
Only take it if you really wants it

Really? I liked it more and more as I progressed through it.

The price of the pack is going up pretty fast. It may soon cost more then just Gemini Rue by its self. A clever selling technique.

 

[gdt]

Pm me for an ARES key from the indie royale bundle that may or may not work yet.

 

[Dice]

SO bought that pack. Only Sanctum seems a bit less appealing, but someone here said it was good. Really wanted Nimbus for a while now, ARES looks good and Gemini Rue intriguing. I wonder if one of those future packs will have Project Black Sun. That kind of thing is my bag, yo.

Bought.

 

[inky]

That bundle is awesome; great value as well. I hope it works out for them.

 

[Scythian]

Really? I liked it more and more as I progressed through it.

At the beginning, controlling the three different characters only to meet at the same place in order to get trapped in the Trine was the highlight of the game for me, it was amusing.
But as I advanced through the levels they felt uninspired IMO, and became kinda frustrated with the combat and the endless waves of enemies.

 

[MRORANGE]

more deals coming soon, should be fun.

 

[Tomodachi]

I already bought the difficult bundle.

Spoiler

Just bought the first bundle by the way, my hard drive hates your guts, guys

My nimbus key isn't working

Contact them so they can get it sorted out. There's an issue with duplicate keys.

 

[Gvaz]

Already did. Now the waiting game ensues.

Desura key works but I never use desura.

 

[JaseC]

Apparently, I already own Sanctum. I must have looked at it 100 times and thought, "What's the point? I'll never play it."

I love you guys.

<3

 

[Vastag]

Great bundle, already bought and every key worked well (I haven't tried ares, already owned it)

 

[Flunkie]

Same for me, Nimbus key was a duplicate. That was the game I was wanting the most. Le sigh.

 

[Rufus]

Apparently, I already own Sanctum. I must have looked at it 100 times and thought, "What's the point? I'll never play it."

You should, good game.

Steam Key | There currently is a bug which is causing us to issue duplicate Steam keys. We hope to have this resolved in a few hours, so please try again then or watch our Twitter for updates. Very sorry for the inconvenience!

Hope I can get a Steam key for Gemini Rue

 

[Card Boy]

Do you know how to computers?

It doesn't install it to a specific unknown directory, steam downloads the files to a directory in steamapps/common/*foldername* within the location steam was installed to and then just adds the game to the registry . If it's in the wrong folder, just move it to the right one.

Did you try deleting clientregistry.blob? Really snuggler can you put this in the top of the OP for future reference for anyone having steam issues:

Steam doesn't work/run/make me breakfast, why?
Delete ClientRegistry.blob and restart. Still does it? Do it again.
It's still not working!
Delete everything but steamapps and reinstall to that folder.

Nope deleting clientregistry.blob doesn't fix the Witcher 2 download. Even if i cut paste the Witcher 2 folder, uninstall it from Steam, put it back it back and install it, it does its 'finding existing Witcher 2 files' and it STILL DOWNLOADS!

The game is beyond effed up on Steam.
