Early Access
The only thing I could think of was that it's because Rust is still early access.
Happy Birthday!!!!!!

If anyone liked the minimalist platformer Love (I know I did, great game), it is getting a sequel kuso in October
If you haven't played the first game and you like tough platformers with an emphasis on replay to improve time and lower deaths, you should check it out. (It's also GAFfer made!!!)
The man's right! Unfortunately Valve took MLK day off without notifying Devs, so the demo got delayed, but now the debut demo is available for free. <3

Oh man, I bought the new bundle because I wanted Evoland 2 and the other games looked good as well. I go to redeem them and I find I own them all already. I think I have a problem.
downloaded Evoland 2 but apparently its a "proper" game and its like 15-20 horus long...damn, thats the type of comitment im not ready to do right now alongside FFXIII lol.
Guess I can do Refunct tho, thats like half an hour right?

The GOTY on Steam is just a bundle. You can get it and not pay for what you already have.

Is Evoland 1 actually worth playing? I haven't bought it yet and heard the sequel is vastly better.
The first one is more like a proof of concept where as the second one builts a full fledged game around it.
But the first is only two hours long so you still might want to play it
Cool, thanks. I'll pick up Evoland 1 and go through that first at some point before going through the second

Hong Kong for $3 is an absolute steal- almost pulled the trigger at $5 during the Winter Sale, but glad I didn't now.

Stronghold Crusaders 2 is apparently pretty shit due to rather crazy AI and balancing issues - but Stronghold and Stronghold Crusaders Remastered are apparently amazing. And they certainly look like great strategy games. Yet more games I have seemingly missed out on that will on the wishlist for later.
Nothing but love for Paradox, but their "release broken game, fix with expansions" shtick is getting really tired. It was fine when EU3 was basically completely fixed by In Nomine and HTTT and DW were just icing on the cake. But EU4's expansions have been half-baked, over-priced at best and literally game-breaking at worst.
(I know they're just the publisher, but Cities Skylines has had insultingly bad expansions for a game that, while beautiful and fun, has really simplistic base mechanics.)
For Stellaris, plus: no game-mechanics expansions... yet. Too bad they released terrible content DLC instead in the mean time. Get your shit together Paradox. Keep the patches coming. But other than that. Eh.

Happy Birthday! Nice giveaways!
Wizorb for a dollar on Chrono.gg - https://www.chrono.gg/cagfeatured
If you like Arkanoid or Super Breakout I strongly recommend Wizorb, it's a pretty solid game in that kind of vein. It's by the dudes who worked on the Scott Pilgrim XBLA game and Mercenary Kings.

Got a 30% off voucher for the UPlay store.
Do I take one step further into the void?
30% off South Park 2 sounds pretty tempting =/

Also, not sure if anyone has paid much attention to these things:
Valve have acquired the company Impulsonic who do HRTF physics based audio for games and VR. Lately they were used for CSGO and I assume Valve has intentions to use their tech in future games / VR stuff.
What's interesting here though is that this isn't really that typical of Valve, but if you look back a little further, there some other interesting things going on that are a bit different. Valve are set to move to new offices soon, that are over double the size of what Valve currently have - but on top of that, they have taken another building that apparently used to belong to Nintendo, also relatively large. Perhaps Valve are shaking up how they operate.

No you don't. I already checked. The only "Complete Your Collection" bundle they have is for the trilogy. If you buy the GOTY edition, you have to pay the full price and you don't get an extra copy of the base game.
There's also the thing about how they have been inviting some devs to work on their own games at Valve's offices. Like Tom Francis and that Onward dev, of the top of my head. It's curious.
Happy Birthday spindoctor! Awesome giveaway you got there.
Interesting - completely missed that.
He's let a bit of info out a few weeks ago about what is happening:
That probably raises more questions than it answers then.

Danganronpa Another Episode confirmed for June 23rd on PS4, can we assume the same for Steam?
Thanks, will keep an eye on it. Can't get enough of metroidvanias for some reason.
It's an NES inspired Metroidvania (we need a better name for this) releasing on February 2nd. It's looking good.
As a reminder, Gabe Newell will have an AMA at r/The_Gaben today at 3PM PST / 6 PM EST
Unlike the AMA thread on the main forum, I hope Steam-GAF can muster more than memes.
