Awesome. How is the co-op handled? I know that there is local support, but what about online?
My one complaint about Risk of Rain was its handling of online multiplayer. I know a matchmaking system is a ton of work and can be costly, but it really would have taken that game to the 11/10 mark. That, and maybe make the menus fully controller-supported so I don't get the weird mind game of randomly requiring a mouse. I'm trying to kick my feet up. Sinking into the couch. There's a beverage here, man!

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.
Good morning GAF.
For those that missed the announcement last night, Enhanced Steam is now on Patreon. Patreon is like Kickstarter, except that instead of making a one time payment, you pledge to a monthly donation to help fund the project's needs - in this case, new servers.
Of course, you're not obligated to donate in order to keep using Enhanced Steam. I just don't want to go the "traditional" route of monetizing an extension like this one, meaning advertising.
If you donate at least $5 per month, you get a cool "Enhanced Steam Supporter" badge on your Steam profile.

Mirrormoon EP might be interesting one to look at.
If you did those in AC vanilla, you can convert and load the save into GOTY.
Well, support by all major browsers is somewhat recent, also I didn't know it could be used to display 120fps footage.

I played Broforce in beta a while back and wasn't feeling it. It's possible that it's come a long way since then, though.

Lifeless Planet supposedly is good but it's still in early access, there is also Waking Mars that I've playing recently and enjoying it a lot.

If you bought the groupees BM12 bundle for 3.50 or more you will get the mystery game, when it is revealed/added to the bundle.

Nice. Dunno if I can do it every month but I plan to donate.

Monthly, I dunno. But certainly one time or occasionally. Certainly worth supporting, especially to keep add-free.

Whatever you can give, whether it be monthly or one-time only, is a huge help.
Patreon seems like a good fit though, since the costs of keeping Enhanced Steam running are ongoing.
I would probably get more donations if I could get Jason Momoa to pose as me.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Would be awesome if you could play as the logo
Early Access; $14.99.

I went for the Bronze.
Hey folks,
No internet at home so apologies for the lack of updates over the weekend. FYI the Arkham City rewards were bugged so I've fixed it. They should go through now in the next 12-24 hours. Definitely works with GOTY, should also work with Vanilla but I'd like to know if it doesn't.
This will get you banned/blacklisted. Don't advise you do it.
I tend to backdate games to the release if we added them a day or two later.
There are some cases where people create a new account rather than sign in with their GMG details, or they already had a really of Playfire account they wanted to use. We're doing a lot to improve that, including building a tool to allow us to re-link accounts (It's very complicated).
Best bet in the meantime is to sign into Playfire with your GMG account, set up a new profile, and ask CS to unlink your Steam account from your old profile. Then your credit will transfer and you'll be able to spend it.
Only added the achievements to the backend today, so they might be slow to come through. Apologies!
Looked into your Playfire account and it was bugged. I've fixed it so you should be good going forward.
We don't no when new users unlocked achievements (when we first fill out your profile) so we give you the benefit of the doubt with rewards. We can turn this off, but for the time being we feel there's no need.

Dunno if it's mentioned here (didn't notice at least), but the HD reboot of Outcast is in kickstarter now. It's made by the original creators.
The game was really awesome and while it got a very good critical reception, it sold pretty badly I think. Not many PCs could even handle it back then.
The kickstarter:
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/outcast-reboot-hd/outcast-reboot-hd?ref=discovery
Check it out. The original game is one of my favorite games ever.
edit:
A neogaf thread here. Someone is probably making a new thread though.

Last week we tracked 14 games, 7 achievements, and you earned £1.60 of Green Man Gaming Credit.
Current Balance
$1.00
I don't understand what this is.
Speak for yourself. I loved Manhattan Project.
That is great how they were able to acquire the rights from Atari. We just have to wait for some more publishers to hit hard times for them to open their coffers and sell off some of their 'useless' IPs.
Looks like they are using their proprietary FreshEngine for this game. I wonder if that is the game's original engine that they have been iterating over the years.
Cheers for posting dude. I'll check it out. Not too clued up on how Patreon run things or how they do payments so will have to have a good read. Hopefully they use PayPal so I won't get caught up in any currency conversion woes.

Yeah that pic is huge. Also, in there the good J looks totally like the guy that used to sell me weed and booze when I was younger.

At least in the questions part they say the engine has been in development since 2004, so not the same engine it'd seem.
And yup it's really awesome that they got the rights for it.
Have you signed into GMG recently? You need to do this during the beta or the rewards won't be deposited. We're working on fixing this.
You got a ticket number? It's worth putting one in. What's your Playfire username?
Hey now, taking a break is fine
But since you are here now, any reason why the "Infowlable" achievement from Sleeping Dogs only gives half the reward?
Also, I did a few of the rewards that expired on Friday (but before the expiration time) and never got them recognized by Playfire :/ ("play for the first time" of DOTA2, Hawken, Trackmania 2 Canyon and Garry's Mod plus 2 of its 3 achievements).
At least the Blackgate ones seem to work fine, even if there are a couple I know I won't be able to get because they expire today and require to finish the game multiple times
Very kind of you, thanks!

Heya radMonkey, I've still not gotten the cash rewards for The Cave, need me to PM you anything to check? My playfire account is Tizoc789

Can you wait for the mystery game to be revealed before you buy? Or will it be exclusive to prepurchasers?
Stumpokapow
listen to the mad man
You're assuming it'll be revealed before the bundle is over
WB selling the Blood IP back to Atari was such a dumb move.
You should probably enjoy your weekend. Rewards can wait.
I mistakenly created a playfire account with a different email than GMG and earned a bunch of rewards before noticing, and I assume this is why my credit does not sync. I wrote in to support awhile back and they said it wasn't fixable then but would be in the future. Any idea if it has?
Anyone else have this issue and get it resolved?

I haven't logged on. Just did now. I'll wait to see if that adds it. Since the rewards page is tracking it.

WB sitting on a million midway games and do jack shit with them is a dumb move.
I'd even take half ass PC releases as long as they had cards.
i havent submitted a ticket. my username is deques
Why do you hate yourself and/or video games? You need to learn to love yourself and treat yourself to better games.

TBH I had a nice weekend playing MGS:GZ, Thief and South Park with no distractions
Good spot on the SD reward, that was human error (mine). I've created a new config that should register £0.50 in 12-24 hours.
For the rest you'll need to submit a CS ticket and they'll credit anything you missed out on. Just follow these instructions.
The Cave was Dec/January, right? We had way more bugs during the beta then. I think you'll need CS to manually credit you. Just follow the same instructions I've left with X05.

Hopefully those BioInf items aren't too undervalued by the season pass sales when they become marketable.

I'm wondering, I got an email saying I've earned £0.95 which is correct (it was every reward for Type:Rider), but my total in the email itself and on PF is £0.00... But when I go to GMG, I have £2.20 in credit.
Is that all from PF rewards? I've only ever bought maybe 2 games off GMG (I'm 2 months into this PC thing, give me time!).
I don't mind opening a CS ticket but since you're posting right now, hey.
Trying to sell more bundles by advertising the mystery game with some impossible-to-decipher MS Paint picture seems like a stupid strategy...
