Happy birthday AHA-Lambda!
Happy birthday, old man!
Man even I'm not that grim, and I really dislike this image because of its overuse.
Here, have a birthday cake
Happy Birthday!
Happy B-Day
Damn, thanks guys
Forge and its very-recently-released sequel Forge: Ymil's Revenge have become Steam Store history. The DLC packs for the former are still available for the time being.
I feel your pain - bought a new pc for a couple of cheaper games and some cool looking indie titles.
Still worth it though just to find that one title that really really clicks - could easily be a meh title had it happen before.

I'm in for Mutant Blobs, Last Inua, and Chronology and already have To The Moon. No idea about the others.

One of these days I'm gonna make a list of what descriptions of games on Steam/PC are turn offs for me.
Ooof 24 hours? Should've made it 3 hours haha.
IMO 24 hours should be for like big mega giveaways, or if you're just being mean

35MM
Cat Goes Fishing yay (><)
Dungeons & Robots
Blink

this could be good, so far not much to see
another free to play VN
this look not bad
edited: there is increase of submissions with nothing to show just concept, probably rumours about easy and fast greenlitting got out (><)

Speaking or RE-REmake and that it drops on PS4, there's a vid on YouTube from those Digital Foundry rascals that looking at it every time the framerate dips is when a new prerendered background is displayed. Moving to the previous screen and back again is stable but a new transition will have a consistent momentary reduction in frametimes. Points to asset streaming by the looks of things so will keep an eye out but looking at their wonky overlays the frametimes go from 33ms to 60ish but in a flat transition with no variance or judder.
Come now, Konami have just give up and focused on mobile, PES and Metal Gear. Squenix and Sega are more Western focused these days for their newer stuff and Capcom really look like they're in the shitter regardless of territory.
Also come on I'm the crazied loony buying all these late ports, I've got no issues with them at all but reading back through the thread a few pages there were a few expressing wanting Capcom for focus on new iterations of established franchises. Which when you look at their situation at the moment (especially after the DR3 and now SFV exclusivity deals) isn't likely to happen that often, hence my comment.
To retain some form of sanity I tell myself the Dragons Dogma dream is dead but then when a game from 2008 gets a Special Edition in 2015, ie DMC4, you just can't rule anything off the cards. If there's a sequel, reboot or online DD in the works it would make sense to throw out a Dragons Dogma HDier Edition to stoke up interest. Self tortured until the last
Speculation by one nutter (ie me) but as I said I wouldn't be surprised. 5 versions is a big undertaking for one company let alone factoring in it's an engine not on PC before in any capacity and going from the requirements has plenty of scalability.

C. Pale Mist was, if not still, on EU and US PSN. It was a 2D action game but I kinda got bored of it, hope it finds a good audience on Steam though. It's a 2D action game with some bullet hell elements.

While on topic, are any of the Vanguard Princess dlcs worth getting?

Crescent Pale Mist's genre is "Action Adventure Strategy RPG Shooter"
Yep..it is literally all of those things and more.
It's a doujin game with a pretty high learning curve. It's interesting, and possibly entertaining if you can wrap your head around its various subsystems.
Gets pretty repetitive though.
(I have the PSN version...I think? I know I've played it before)
Apparently you should just grab the Lilith DLC. It adds a playable character + some other stuff. The Hilda Rize DLC just adds the same playable character, but nothing else.
On the other hand. It's probably unnecessary. The DLC character is the broken final boss and is unusable in most of the competitive modes.

Oh fuck, a proper 4 player mahjong.

Oh crap, no internet play? Say it ain't so, I so would like to kick Arthea's arse in this game

no cards, no cheevos, not buying!
I probably still will, but will they ever learn (><)
singlepay only... what are you talking about?
4 player as in you and 3 cpus
Most of ... those types of mahjong games are 1vs1 only, which simplifies the rules a lot.
Pity there's no MP here. :'(
what's this?
http://store.steampowered.com/app/337850/
that's not Avernum 2 I remember. They confuse me... they confuse me a lot.
yeah, but I'd prefer more mhmmmm traditional mahjong tbh. We'll get it one day, we just have to live that long (><)

Remake of Avernum 2, which in itself was a remake of Exile 2.

Milamber Alert.
I had the exact same opinion as you regarding Hexcells and Plus. Don't think of the games as individual entities, but think of them as parts of a whole. Hexcells is the introductory levels, Plus is where things get more difficult, and Infinite is where you really get tested.
Yeah, it's a great game, but something's felt "off" about it recently. They apparently did a huge overhaul to the game recently (new engine, etc), and broke a lot of stuff, judging by the forum. I beat the game pre-patch with every character and got all the unlocks, but post-patch, I haven't beat it once yet. As best I can tell, the difficulty got screwed up, and not in a good way. Some of the special (colored) enemies are taking WAY longer to kill than they used to. They always had more HP, but now they see, to have 5x what they used to in the old version of the game. I don't know if this is intentional or not, as it seems that the devs are staying pretty quiet about the whole thing.
lol at the character descriptions.
But at least it's a Mahjong game. I wish they would translate/port the Saki psp game. That looked amazing, because you are not had regular mahjong, but actual special abilities and such.
Someone should make a game based on Mudazumo Naki Kaikaku
Seriously, Lunar Super Aryan Hitler duking it out with George W. Bush, Valdimir Putin and Benedict the XVIth beats moeblobs every day.
Bolek i Lolek, Reksio, Zaczarowany Ołówek (the one with the wiz kid) and Miś Uszatek are like, my generation Thunderbirds, He-Man or Evangelion combined.
Koizumi is awesome, but I don't know if I like a game were everyone actually cheats. Also already annoyed at the mahjong stone rubbing mini game.
You're making me regret gifting things directly through steamJust wanted to see how many people are eligible since we haven't this in a while.
Cheap GAF: Have the Ys games been cheaper before?

Way, way more famous here than Pat & Mat
I never watched this but it looks nice, if the price is right, I'll grab it.
Isn't there a way to check your stats via mod bot? I don't think I am a mega giver but I know I have given a bunch it would be fun to have my stats

It's a kids game, something to play with a 2-3 year old.
Just a friendly warning.
Would be something good to let my nephew play whenever his family visits over then ;3

What about Tabletop Simulator? Someone must have created a Mahjong game for it.
it's animu-japanese version of me, obviously (><)
hey! I never thought of it, but now when you mention it, somebody probably did.

Any news on when will Tits 2 be released on steam? didn't they say it would come out before 2014's end?
Tizoc

that was ages ago.
We're getting it this year, whenever XSEED can get the game's PC code to run OK on non Japanese PCs or something.
It will come this year, that much we were assured of, last time March was mentioned as a bit too optimistic, so I'm guessing it's summer-autumn realistically.
hahah is that a real name?
It's an acronym. Trails in the Sky.
