I'm going for SpaceChem (I really liked the Codex of Alchemical Engeneering and also liked KOHCTPYKTOP, though I didn't come anywhere near to finishing that. Of course what I really loved was the Ruckengineur "series", but that's dead.)

Space, so they say,
Is a frontier quite final
but I want to play
with methane and vinyl

I'll leave the flying
to those who desire it
so I won't be applying
for being a pirate

Burma Shave!

I stand upon the shores
Of a mercurial sea.
Beneath silver stars
Shining for eternity.
Upon golden sands
Of brazen lands.

And live by the grace
Of a clockwork soul.

That was for Space Chem, I assume I have to make a second poem if I want to enter for a second game, so here's one for Amnesia.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Child
Your hands are shaking
Your head is drooping
Your heart is breaking
Your face is stained with tears
Your mind is full of fears
And you're so scared
You only wish to hide

Child
I shall take your hand
I shall lift your head
I shall stitch your heart
I will wipe away the tears
I will hold you tight in my arms
Until you're ready
For the world outside

[neotemplar]

Across the garden,
the trees weep jagged tears,
into the brain cases of zombies these usher forth,
the moans of the forlorn hope,
fall upon the deaf ears,
of the rows of corn.

They told me it was a Mission...
They told me it was Hard...
This only lead to my Ignition...
To face this Facade...
For we all know, I ain't the only One...
That thinks that Losing is FUN!!!

Original idea, Levi, I like. Put me up for Bulletstorm!

A World's Ending

It took guts to do what you did.
To get on a bus and drive away
To feel the speed underneath your feet
To see the world flash before you eyes
To know that this was the journey
To your own world’s ending

It took guts to get off that bus
To walk the last mile
To mount that hill of despair
To see the kind stranger
To ignore the words of danger
To keep trotting on
To your own world’s ending

It took guts to take that last step
To fight the loneliness
To cast away the darkness
To see that speeding wall of metal
To hear the rolling thunder
To your own world’s ending

It takes guts for all the remaining ones
To accept you are gone
To see that stone in the earth
To wonder why you left
To carry on without your smile
To remember your world’s ending

There once was a man from Bavaria
Who had a bad case of malaria.
He could not remember,
so close to September,
and that threw him into hysteria.
Amnesia.

Speaking of, Levi, we get to keep full copyright of our "poems", correct?

Also, for the benefit of the lazy, entry count for various games:
Toki Tori: 0!
Super Meatboy:1
Orcs Must Die:2 (1*)
Space Chem:3
Amnesia: Dark Descent:6  (it's the current crowd favorite.)
Space Pirates and Zombies: 4
Plants Vs Zombies: 2
Bulletstorm: 2(3*)

(*) Apparently Xeron wanted to change his entry, but has not done so as of this posting. The numbers in parentheses will become accurate if he does.

Of course!  Even if I said I'd own them I don't think legally I'd have a leg to stand on.  Haha

very well. Here's an old one (as you can note by my horrible English skills), for Orcs Must Die fun:

Spoiler: A Tale Of Greed and the Desert (click to show/hide)

Five people went across the dunes
of desert called Zaroo.
One day they found a gem with runes
on it and priceless, too.

One of them said: "This gem is mine
I saw it first, you see. "
Four dissagreed. The bottom line-
he lost his friends and knee.

Four people camped then for the night,
three of them were awake
they ploted up to morning light-
decided gem to take.

The other never knew their biz
he was still sleeping tight
when taking all their stuff (and his)
they went into the night.

Then two of them (a girl and boy-
the story is quite old)
just couldn’t all of this enjoy
or so we have been told.

She said that they could get a house
and horse for all she knew,
She said: "You get them and you make my spouse!
or I am leaving you! "

The man was never all that bad
he simply was in love
and he persuaded the third lad
well anyway, sort of.

This idilly went on for days
until he broke his leg
the woman left him in the blaze
to fry just like an egg.

But 1:1 was the final score
there was no point — alas!
for gem that seemed so fine before
was just a piece of glass.

Oops, I should have mentioned earlier.  Only one game entry per person.   Multiple poems per person is totally cool though.

[Xeron]

Actually my first one was Amnesia.I then changed it to Bulletstorm.And now to Orcs.

[a1s]

Only one entry per person for one game.

that should really read "Only one entry per person." Or even "Only one entry per person (that means you can only get one game, choose wisely!)"

[Xeron]

Yes.And i changed what my entry was for.

[a1s]

Actually my first one was Amnesia.I then changed it to Bulletstorm.And now to Orcs.

Hurm.

Ok, so now:

Code: [Select]

Toki Tori: 0
Super Meatboy:1
Orcs Must Die:2
Space Chem:1
Amnesia: Dark Descent:6
Space Pirates and Zombies: 4
Plants Vs Zombies: 2
Bulletstorm: 2
this includes Pnx's choice of Amnesia over SC.

[Pnx]

Hmmm, I'll pick Amnesia then.
