I know some fellow GAFfers already got this game and others were curious so I would to say that -in my recent memory- To the Moon was a game that gave me a lesson, that, not always Graphics are the most important thing.

To the Moon is all about the Story.

It seems something happened to this kind old man. You are able to travel back in time, from the years of his youth, experiencing his life, growing up. He's dying,There's something about the moon, that is important to someone, and you don't know why.

There's a Lady involved, there's love. You want to know why he wants this so I guess you should grab this while it's 70% so we can find if you, him or someone in the game will ever go...

[I]...To the Moon.[/I]

Or not. I don't know, play it! Took me 4-5 hours to finish it![/QUOTE]

Sounds really good.

Oh wow, I already finished downloading FTL.

Can't wait to start playing!

Good stuff, I hope you enjoy it. Stick with it long enough for it to 'click' with you, and odds are that you will. :)

I may have another birthday FTL giveaway later on for all who have missed out, but again, if you're even mildly interested, but still on the fence, you really can't go wrong for $2.50. So many discerning GAFfers can't be wrong.

I put up a card from Sleeping Dogs. Lotus. It was averaging around 40 cents, so I priced it as such. I was promptly pushed to the second page by people selling it for pennies cheaper. It was going for 35 cents at this point. I take it off and put it up for a quarter, a whole dime cheaper, coming to 28 cents for the buyer. I check on it seconds later, and there are 4 people who beat my price by a couple pennies.

This is hilarious. I kinda want to do this for all the cards I get now.

I've been doing that all day. It's interesting to see the free market at work.
 
Sounds really good.

It is, and you should buy it, because its awesome. Also get the soundtrack if you can, cause that has as much feels as the game xD

Sleeping Dog for $6.24... I never had an interest in the game but I might have to take the risk of another game on my backlog :O

You could try asking over in the LoG forum for help if nobody here has any suggestions. It's a great game, I hope you get it fixed.

it gets fixed when I turn rendering quality to low, but shits up the graphics.

dammit.

Yeah had the similar experience. Oh well I sold enough to get me a copy of FTL(too damn slow to get one of the giveaways) so I think I will wait before I sell anything else to see if the prices rebound.

Let me show you through these halls, my friend, where treasures of indie gaming await...
Reus please. Please?

Here is the thread:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=558684

and my impressions:
It seems to be a mixture between a god game,a puzzle game and some 4X elements thrown in (research, expansion, war). Not directly a puzzle game, but how you need to make sure that your village prospers with limited amount of space and within the scope of that, there seem to be tons of possibilities for different plants, animals, minerals, which all have a different symbiosis to something to enhance the effect, giving it a bit of a 4X touch as well. Example: Blueberries give you 4 food, but if you upgrade them to strawberries you get 8 food and if the strawberries are next to another patch of blueberries, they get an additional 2 food on top. All this helps developing your villages, which in turn is needed to advance the powers of your giants. Its really slick and charming and considering the surprising amount of variation and possibilities (100 plants), I can see myself playing this for a while. Its also suuuper cool to just watch people doing their thing. They really managed to give this game a special touch.

Features:
  • Control four mighty giants, each with their unique abilities
  • Terra-form the planet to your will, experiment with different terrain types
  • A complex system of upgrades and synergies allows for endless styles of play
  • Observe humanity, let your giants praise or punish them
  • Enjoy an interesting art style and a strong soundtrack
  • Enrich the planet with over 100 plants, animals and minerals
  • Unlock new content by helping humanity achieve numerous developments

Its a relatively recent game with lots of detail and shows very obvious that the developers love this game. I'd love to see this 50% off for more people to grab it. Its such a lovely game with a unique structure that it deserves some spotlight.

Wait a minute, what? Is there a limit to how many reviews you can write, or do they only allow you to write reviews on games you've purchased from them? Because at $1 every 4 reviews... I'd be spending a few weekends pasting over the few reviews I've done in the past and then writing up pretty much everything they currently sell.

It is going to be a highlighted daily deal, so it should do pretty well!
