Is anybody still actually playing that? I wanted to try it out after I finished the SP a week ago and there was absolutely nobody around.
I think they're using the beta appid for the final version so if you have that it'll treat it as you owning it. Mine shows that at least.

Not sure if it's been posted before but Humble Bundle now shows unused keys on the bottom of your profile page, had I a few.
Yeah it's crazy, he's opened 100 so far and it's been a bunch of junk.

We told you about those GOG keys bro.
Well without those people you wouldn't essentially get paid to play CS:GO. So I'm thankful. Besides if that's what they like then good for them!

There's no way that shit is accurate, I've gotten more worth out of 10 crates simulated then i have in 150 crates that I've opened.
I've been playing the Distance beta today, and the game's good. It's very similar to Nitronic Rush, or at least to how I remember the latter being, and that's a good thing in my opinion. Sadly it runs pretty choppy on my PC, with micro freezes every now and then. Those are terrible when aiming for a low time. No idea if that's the game's fault or my old computer (probably the latter), but it kinda ruins the mood.
Adventure mode is very short, but there's a message in the end saying it's still unfinished. Multiplayer ran VERY slow, probably due to a mixture of my PC and internet connection. The other single player modes include time attack (just like in NR), score attack (try to get as many points as possible in a given time), time/score attack (like the first mode, but points will make the timer go down in the end) and challenge (no checkpoints, one live only, Final Destination). It also has Workshop support, which is always great, and comes with a level editor. I'm really glad with how the game turned out to be, even if it seems a bit short on official tracks at the moment and my rig can't handle it well.
Oh, and I also tried LocoCycle. It's bizarre, that's for sure. And it also runs like crap, so it may be time to get a new PC soon.

get paid? i've played 7 hours and haven't got nothing, not even a 3 cent basic skin.
So I "won" Real Horror Stories from Dusk Golem earlier in the week, and he requested that I play it and give impressions, so here goes:
I went into this game knowing almost nothing other than it was supposedly bad. Turns out... yeah it's really bad.
Basically, you start in a dark forest and there are a couple of things on the screen you can click on. You click on them and they make vaguely spooky sounds. Then you think maybe there is something else to click on... nope nothing else. So you click on the first couple of things again and the same things happen. Repeat enough times and something "scary" happens like a shadow running across the screen accompanied by loud noises. There is really no indication that you are doing anything right, you just keep clicking on the same objects until something happens, and if you do this enough times more spooky stuff happens, and you eventually move on to the next level. Except when that doesn't work, because this time you need to click on a specific thing, or click on things in a specific order without the game giving you any indication this is the case, so you are just clicking the same thing over and over like a moron because it worked last time, but now it's not working. At the end of the game, you are given a choice: left or right. There is no indication what this does, what is different between the two, or even if you are making a choice. Both look identical. But if you choose one you get the bad ending and you get the good ending from choosing the other. Supposedly there is a third ending, but I wasn't going to play anymore to find out.
There are a few puzzle segments. Most are simple things like "assemble these shreds of a newspaper article" or "click the symbols in the order they light up like a game of Simon". But then there are a bunch of annoying and obscure puzzles. What's especially annoying is that some of the puzzles are pure trial and error, but when you make a mistake you have to start all the way over at the beginning. Not that the puzzles are long, but it just adds to the frustration. Frankly, by the end I was just getting fed up so I looked up the solutions, and I actually like puzzle games.
As for scares, they are all pretty lame. It's pretty much all jump scares. There are a bunch of dead bodies and blood stains all over the place, and many of these are the objects you have to click on to advance. You get a lot of shadows running across the screen with loud noises, some growling sound effects, and sometimes ghosts or dead bodies rush towards the screen before suddenly disappearing. There is gore, severed heads, dead children, and at least one ritual sacrifice, so I guess it's not for the squeamish. The sound effects are really cheesy, and don't really sound like anything real. But ultimately I didn't find anything particularly scary. I was startled a bit by the loud noises and sudden movements on screen I guess, in the same way I would be if someone threw something at me without warning me first. But then I was hardly playing in optimal circumstances for horror (during the day, with daylight streaming in the windows).
Also, there are spiders, so this game is not suitable for Zkylon.
Ultimately, it's a bad game, don't play it. I suppose there are worse games out there, and maybe if jump scares interest you, you might find something of value in this. I did not. I give this game a Bad/10

Just got a booster pack for a no-name game whose cards are worthless, but the least valuable booster pack on the market was $1.75. I undercut to $1.50 because that price was nonsense and I'd rather close the sale than maximize my profit.
