Got my first foil today (Binding of Isaac Emperor card). Feels good.
Also, thank you to the anonymous benefactor for Warlock - looks interesting.

I got the original in an Indie Royale, and yeah it's pretty great. Bit short, but that's what Plus is for, and in my opinion well worth the two quid.

Apparently the Metro skin ingame Steam setting is cut off at the end:
There are supposed to be a "Never" option after "Only when minimized".
It seems like the window can't be resized. Anyone have the same problem?

I have only played HexCells Plus and I can confirm the game is a great expansion of Minesweeper, Picross, Sudoku, etc.
I don't know whether I am going to buy the first one then.

So this is basically how my own experience with Antichamber has been so far:
- Oh, nice minimalistic look.
- Aaaah, puzzles, I like it.
(30 minutes later)
- This is getting kinda boring. . .
(Weapon get)
- Ok, much better now. Interesting.
- Man, that's clever.
(1 hour later)
- How the fuck am I supposed to. . .Oooooh!
- This is so good.
- What? There are upgrades!?
(1 hour 30 minutes into the game)
- Damn it, I'm stuck!
- I love this game.
Also, the way it rewards your intuition is amazing. It's also extremely well designed in the sense that everything in-game is self explanatory and only requires focused thinking and analysis of your entire surroundings. I haven't read a single guide or walkthrough and I still keep making slow but steady progress.
I still haven't figured out how to get my 1st. upgrade but I'm getting close.

Is there any way to have the regular steam overlay while still using a skin? Air's overlay is ridiculously bare-bones, there isn't even a button for the web browser.

Is $12.50 a good buy for Injustice? I realize that the PC version hasn't been out that long but I'm trying to decide if I should just wait to hit that $7.50 spot. I've seen quite a few deals in the last month for the current amount.
Some of my issues might be related to the fact that I'm playing it on a laptop. It's a pretty good one, as I'm usually able to play everything very comfortably, but this game just probably hasn't been tested and or/optimized properly for laptops.
As for achievements, it's not that they are big spoilers, but they do tell you what's going to happen next. For example, at one point the "so close" section of the Steam overlay featured an achievement that said
"survive the explosion in the freight car"
The game itself is indeed enjoyable: good old-fashioned adventuring with a great theme and some optional puzzles. I found it hard to remember that the story takes place specifically in the '60s though: kept getting The Last Express flashbacks.
It's an excellent fighting game and one of my favorite games of last gen. Totally worth it at that price. If you are in no urge to play it though you can wait for it to hit the same price point as MK9
I think you can't go wrong with 12.50. Quality game and much content. DO IT.

I'm not sure about the overlay change, but both the community hub and achievement buttons bring up the web browser, you just get those pages instead of whatever your home page is set to.

Update the skin or opt out of the Steam client beta (if applicable).
Replace the overlay layout files in your skins\[skin name]\resource\layout folder with those in Steam\resource\layout. It may not look exactly the same due to the differences in overarching style settings, but the general layout will be identical to that of the default skin.
This is a spoiler for later in the game, but I really fucking hated
those extension/cloning 'puzzles' where you have to fill up a grid that don't work right with my damn trackball. There's so fucking many of them, and they don't add anything except useless busywork

BTA gets locked in at the moment you buy.

I would like to BTA on the Humble Bundle, but my profile still says that the BTA cost is $8.26? So I guess it's cheaper for me to just buy a new bundle?
The Swapper is gorgeous, but the Mac version doesn't even launch for me. Hope they fix that. Guacamelee is a great port!
Thanks.. shame. I'll just buy another bundle.

I've been playing this too. It's lots of fun.
Thanks. I had to end up doing that to avoid repeating a lot of work, but it still doesn't sync properly after changes. I have different stuff installed on both computers so I guess it works out ok so I can keep different stuff out of the way on each.

That worked and it actually looks pretty good.
Well, EF-12 was recently greenlit, and Aino Heart is a free character in that program, so that's something, right?

I'm not even surprised that Humble would institute a change that would be punitive to early adopters.

It's not a bad price and it certainly has a ton of content.
I bit at that price, and I'm not sure why exactly, as I do not think it's a good fighting game. I think I basically got it for $10 though because GMG gave a $2 credit or so... and the idea of being able to beat up Superman with anyone I want, especially Batman, kind of won out in the moment (if I can get beyond my dislike of the combat mechanics).
I suppose if there's a demo, you should try it.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Who wouldn't want to go on a virtual tour of Japan with two underage-looking girls?

But I don't want to play a Thief game where I don't have 3 different keyboard keys that give 5 different speeds for forward movement ;_;
