Enter the Gungeon
- More_Badass
Take the wild weapons, crazy items, and weird enemies of Binding of Isaac, mix it with the satisfying shooting and skillful dodging of Nuclear Throne, and then add some more tactical elements and a ballistic-themed fantasy world of gun-toting bullets and weapon crafting witches, and that's Enter The Gungeon.

A frenetic dual-stick shooter with roguelite aspects, Gungeon drops you into the titular fabled dungeon where all manner of odd enemies and traps lurk. Luckily, there are over 200 guns to be found, from your generic pistols and shotguns to more exotic arms that unleash bees or oil or shark-infested waters, as well as myriad items that embue you with special abilities and game-changing buffs. A three-weapon loadout means you can discover synergies for any situation, and when bullets aren't enough, you can take cover or deftly dodge-roll around incoming projectiles

And those skills aren't enough, you can always bring a friend for some local co-op action


The Banner Saga 2
- Nete
The Banner Saga was one of the first "big" successful projects we had on Kickstarter, taking advantage of the momentum started by Broken Age one month earlier to fund a story-driven SRPG with some fine writing, great characters and a pretty unique Norse-ish setting. On it, we will lead a caravan of people fleeing from their homes as their only chance to survive in a world where the gods are dead, and the game really shines making you feel the burden of leadership each time you must face a decision in a journey system reminder to the old Oregon Trail. The combat is also kinda unique, and although it could do with more variety of everything, the use of Health as both, Life and Attack power, makes for a really interesting and refreshing system once it clicks in your head. It's also a stupidly gorgeous game, combining backgrounds inspired in the work of Eyvind Earle and 2D animations with some good ol' hand-drawn feeling. The music by Austin Wintory is the icing on the delicious cake that is the game fantastic atmosphere.

The Banner Saga 2 promises to do everything the first game did, but better.


Deadbolt
- More_Badass
After the success of sci-fi roguelite Risk of Rain, Hopoo Games is back with Deadbolt. In Deadbolt, you play as the ultimate harbinger of death, the Reaper himself, in a noir-ish take on supernatural fantasy. Unleash your wrath upon on undead gangs, vampire nightclubs, and more, blending furious firepower. stealth, and otherworldly abilities. Shoot out lights, wield knives, axes, or your scythe to cut enemies down quietly, take cover behind flipped tables and blow enemies apart with everything from pistols to grenade launchers. And if you've mastered the campaign, you can also create and share your own levels.

  • Do not solicit/trade/sell/beg for games in this thread. The discussion of splitting retail packs is fine though.
  • Do not spam post your steam stats/games count or post damage lists from sales.
  • Examples of good posting behaviour and bad posting behaviour.
  • Don't hype pre-order bundles that you have no idea about.Just buy them!

Surprised by so few recommendations for April.... is this month like a dry well or something? I'm pretty sure there's something coming out this month.
 
Gotta wait until May for all the good stuff, I guess...

I'm not at my computer right now to confirm some of this information, as a result this is all off the top of my head.

Moving files between storage in Steam is actually really easy. What you forgot to move is the files that are attached to the appid numbers in the /steamapps folder. Move the actual game folder to the new drive, then move the files in the steamapps folder to the new drive.

I don't have the specific file extension for those files since I'm not at my computer, but their name is the steam app id which can be found at steamdb.
Ah, the appmanifest .acf files? Those get moved too, but there's always at least a few games that Steam acts like they aren't installed. If I "install" them it downloads something for a bit and then jumps to 100% and shows it as installed.

Might just be a Steam quirk. Hopefully everything gets recognized, but just in case I'll have to make a note of what I have installed so I can run through my list and "install" any that Steam doesn't end up recognizing.

Turned on Baldur's Gate after installing the new patch and got retroactive achievements. That's what I like to see.

Said it last month, but perhaps it was not that visible. The Tiki One Cleaner link given in the main post is broken, here is a correct one.
Is there any room for surprise regarding today's jokes?
 
Good luck guys, I hope you're as excited as I am for Dark Souls III!
What very generous and appreciated act. Appreciated!
Not entering so that Fresh Veggies can win it. <3
I too hope that lad gets lucky. &#9829;

Thread title is lame and thus fittingly biting in its social commentary regarding all things April 1st.

Looking forward to it being changed on April 2nd.

Oh, and nice work as always, Mr O - thanks.
