Talking about One Finger Death Punch.
I admit that I'm half blind, so I may be wrong in this, but a game seems to have some glitches. I reran one level 5 times, and I'm 100% sure I don't miss single hit, a game insist I missed one... all 5 times. WTH?
Also I wouldn't suggest playing it and Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae. It gets a tad confusing (><)
I wish there was

haha! That's the feeling of Spelunky!
I recently went to hell and got to Yama with no bombs since 4-1..

I managed to kill him too, but just as he exploded he caused a block to fall down on me and insta-kill me (had 15 hearts).

in share defiance of that price, waiting until it hits $10!
that will teach them
TBH it really should've been $50 for the base price. I'm just stubborn that way that if a game has a digital release it shouldn't cost as much as retail.
For some reason I suspect the game may drop in price as it approaches release date, if only because the sales were very low or non existant.
As Jase said, you might be able to get it cheaper thru Russian traders.
For that matter, I e-mailed GMG and was informed that the game has no ETA on GMG, hopefully it arrives by the last few days before release, I may be able to get it for $40 orless XP.
Go play the Hexcells games. It's Picross meets Minesweaper.
it has 20% discount going right now, but it's still ridiculous base price.
Last time I paid that price was for Ni no Kuni, and do I regret paying it to this day!
Ya, I could buy it from russian store, otoh I can wait too.
Hexcells is a very nice little game, but it's not Picross 3D by any stretch of imagination.

I really hope the PC version doesnt look like this.

Ouch, I see that Kickstarted FPS Takedown isn't doing so hot... 90% sale already! No wonder though; it always looked like a really crap version of CS and I have no idea how or why it was KS'd.
Hexcells is what we're talking about, man! It's great but so short.
Thank you based ModBot
No idea, but I think he's still adorable.
Pushmo has a custom level sharing feature? How does it work?
QR codes IIRC.

Groupees' Be Mine 8, Green Light Bundle 4 and IndieGameStand.
Didn't know that. I will have to look into that once I'm done with the main levels (still have half of them left, plus I haven't bought Crashmo yet).

I really wish there was a way to stream your desktop without wifi.
I could play these VNs so much more comfortably if I could just use my iPad.

Maybe I'm dumb but about two hours in Fractal basically became trial and much error, too complex and impossible to predict for me. Have yet tot try Hexcells.

I recommend Hexcells. It is very short and light on content (and the controls never felt "right") but it is good for about an hour.
Some more quick thoughts (mostly Bundlestars games with a couple of extras):
CreaVures: A pretty game, in that "like Trine is pretty but it is hard to care" kind of way. Unfortunately it seems they put all the effort into the graphics, because the actual platforming is stiff, kind of pointless and not very interesting at all.
Fractal: Make Blooms not war: Nice presentation, kind of a dull concept and I gave up after a few minutes. You push blocks to create blocks to create a pattern and yeah, it all seems a bit random and didn't grab me enough to bother learning it more.
Critical Mass: A typical match 3 block game, only in 3D. It is actually well put together and demonstrates the game concept well. But I don't think the actual game concept is a particularly good one, it is just too fiddly and not much fun to turn the cube around to match up the colours.
One Finger Death Punch: This is more like it. The presentation is a little rough, but it is a fun game to play as you hit your left and right buttons in time with the enemies. It starts simple but gets tough quickly, without feeling too unfair. Worth picking up the bundle for.
Trapped Dead: Surprised me a little by being better than I thought. It is a commandos type of take on zombies and features some nicely constructed areas and about every zombie cliche in the book. It isn't near interesting enough to keep you playing, but it isn't the worst effort ever made and is at least worth a look.
Gnomoria: Worth just mentioning again because I took more time to play it. There are a few bugs, like menus which sometimes don't refresh properly and some clunkiness around automatic build queues (you will have to step in from time to time). But once you scratch the surface you start to understand how the worlds are put together and the ability to dig down into the surface just gives you massive scope for constructing a great little town. It still might be very hard to get into, but I feel the reward is there (and it should keep getting better).

I got Thief ro $30, not regretting it but I don't feel arsed to play through it XO
I'll try to put some time into it today and finish Mission 3.
Hexcells is opposite, entirely logic based, except one level which had 3 guesses to be made, if I remember correctly and a game is really nice, good choice of music too. It's a bit short, though.
Both are invalid. Wanted Morrowind
Damn, guess these are for the non-Steam installs then. I'll have you in mind if I ever come across a spare key for Morrowind

Glad you said that. I think I know the level you are talking about and I was wondering if I was missing some technique beyond a blind guess (or a guess and then a restart to get it right)
The key format looks like for Steam though. Thanks anyway
I haven't played the game yet, but people on Steam forums are saying there are no guesses necessary for the game.
Free Project Cyber steam keys
well, they are wrong. It's not the first time too
I played through the game twice, as any achievements weren't registering the first time (maybe steam was down, I dunno), that's why I remember it quite good. In one level you have to make some guesses, the only thing I'm not sure about, were it 2 or 3 guesses.
nope, you can choose who to believe though (><)

Well, some Picross puzzles looked also like they'd require guessing until I learned/devised advanced techniques - maybe it's the same here?

Sounds good, after the utterly fantastic, always logical but in places rather hard Tetrobots I could use something easier and shorter. I'll also recommend the overlooked Splice, innovative and fair. http://store.steampowered.com/app/209790
Thanks for the heads-up.

For example the hex on the far right:
To me there is no way of knowing if it is included or not (short of solving the entire puzzle and seeing you have two cells remaining). But I'm sure there are other examples.

By logic it should be the hex with number 2 on it. Isn't it?
It seems I don't have and Tetrobots and Splice, Tetrobots seems to platformer though, so that's understandable, while Splice looks more like it, although it remains unclear how it plays. I remember already considering that one at some point.

You do have a remaining number of cells to be colored, right?

Look for the remaining number of cells.
This actually doesn't work in level I was talking about, as you have twice as much uncovered hexes, as there are coloured hexes left and you have to guess their position regardless.

Bit of SteamGaf fun since Hexcells is on topic tonight:
(Numbers indicate the number of blue cells around a cell or in the line (there are other mechanics but I've solved them for simplicity))
Q. What move is next and why?

Tetrobot isn't a platformer at all, it's designed for mouse control and you click to send the robot somewhere. There's also a rewind function so it's all about the puzzles, no penalty for an error.
