A lot of us didn't even think that this game would be so addictive too. It was on sale during the time there was very little else to choose and during the boredom of waiting for the next sale refresh, some of us decided to start it up. I personally was planning on just idling for the cards but decided to at least drive around. Then suddenly you are presented with an RPG style leveling system with the entire UK & Europe open to you and an expandable business that you can make grow and manage entire fleets. All starting from just you, a penniless truck driver that doesn't even have his own truck to call his own.

The DLC was crazy gorgeous.

I played through Thomas a second time to hear all of the commentary. Highly recommended.

Yeah, bought it from Dunder for a little under 5 bucks. Haven't played it except for what little I tried of the demo, but I believe it's worth that price.You end up getting it fellow GAFfer? We need to talk about that game then good sir!
Also, someone on Steam "called" ChuckNorris added me. Only a couple of games, one of his/her friend is a Level 100 and we have no friends or groups in common. I don't like mystery people!
We can talk about it, of course. I don't know anything about the company management aspect, should I pay it any attention? Or just drive around aimlessly?
Anyway, I'm gonna grab my copy of Cosmo's Factory (best Creedence album in my opinion) and listen to that masterpiece while driving my truck through Europe.
My hearts beatin', my hands are shakin', but I'm still makin' Steam sales!

This can make most mundane games interesting if done correctly. I love the idea of building up from nothing. Wishlisted.
Is this real? And if so, can I buy from the US?
Great to hear fellow GAFfer, I believe some good GAFfers said it's a good game to play while listening to some Podcasts. I still need to play the demo.
Cool, will definitely check this out.
Of course it's real. And I bought one earlier from the US. Redeemed most of the keys already, the rest went to a giveaway.

I just bought Mercenary Kings early access and I like it a lot so far. It's definitely rough around the edges though, for a Metal Slug-ish game the combat has some weird clunkiness to it. The jump in particular is a pain, and some of the enemies have attacks that just seem counter-intuitive; they just seem to hit you no matter what, rather than reward you for figuring out the pattern. The weird giant snail thing is this in a nutshell, it has a very obvious tell that it's about to fire forward, so you jump... but it fires two bullets, one forward and one at an angle (despite their being no visual indication that it can fire diagonally) in a way that means you get hit regardless of whether you stand still or jump.
The game also currently doesn't explain the crafting system at all, but I assume that will come in time.

Well, I was tempted to buy giana sister for the whole summer sale since I thought that a 66% discount was already bigger than the normal 50% that appears on those dates, plus 5 dollars was not that much
But then I said, I had a big backlog, so maybe I will wait
Now was a daily for 3 dollars, and since for crafting the level 5 summer sale badge give a foil card, I bought the game for free
so remember guys , even when the sumer sale ends, WAIT FOR THE DAILIES YOU BASTARDS

listen to the mad man
yes, although if people are reposting from the previous thread without setting up a new giveaway there'll be issues with the auto-edits

How would this work, if the offer is still available? I'm interested, but I've never done this before. Does it come out cheaper than buying the game individually?
id post all this on their community page, dudes want feedback
Yes, it's cheaper. The host buys the four-pack and one copy is automatically tied to his/her account; the remaining copies are added to his/her inventory for distribution to the other members of the group. The cost of the bundle is split evenly, with the money going to the host's PayPal account.

Don't "Bundle Stars" usually get cheaper later at the sale? I remember it getting like 50% cheaper or something stupid like that.
damn, been there done that.
They are amazing games. On the Winter Seal I plan on buying a copy of Dog Food Cooking Tycoon, Sim Guinea Pig 3 and Youtube Moderator 2014. Three quality titles for a bargain price.

Dunder was even offering it for $4 once or twice.

Don't have a Paypal account, would buying and gifting a game of equal value be an acceptable alternative?
Anyway, I have to think about it. Might want to save $$ for upcoming games

Now with the sale over, its time to hope that card prices go back up. None of that 'playing games' nonsense.

I'm regretting it too. Knew I should have gone for it but decided to leave. Feeling stupid now
Play them? We like to buy them.
That would vary case to case. Some people may need the money in their PayPal account to pay for the pack, for example.
I think he's selling it for 8$ right now which is still a great deal.
Quick lesson, everything you know about the physics of driving is WRONG.

Also at Indiegala for $9.95...that is if you feel more comfortable buying through those guys.
I see. So he should drive forward to back up the truck!
