There is something odd with the sales i guess.
Yesterday i saw Shadow Warrior for 9.99 EU then it got a price cut to 6.xx EU and theb back to 9.99... and back to 6.xx again.
It was kinda weaird.

Yeah, that's odd.  The base game is still 75% off / US$7.49 , but GOTY bundle is only half off now.  :P

New Community Chest update, taking all bets.

What are the chances the -90% will win because it's $0.30 for Super Hexagon?

EDIT:
I chose LLtQ as well. Kinda like Princess Maker, except a stage higher, and dealing with queendom.

EDIT EDIT:
Called it. Cheepskates win Super Hexagon.

Higher than I'd like. That 50% on LLtQ would... I'd drop a fiver on that. Find out in a few hours, anyway.

Seconded here, LLtQ is what I voted for, and want.

I haven't seen a trend this year for people chasing the absolute cheapest things.  I voted for Kentucky Route Zero; I have no personal interest in buying/playing it, but it seemed more interesting than the brutal twitch game that is Super Hexagon.

Maybe I'm just getting old, I dunno.

Kentucky Route Zero. No question about it. LLTQ will probably still win.

Well i voted for Hexagon... mostly because of my consience bugging me that i should have bought it instead of playing the (superior) freeware knockoff.
If it wins i can just throw several cents at it i got from selling those silly cards anyway.

Tell me about LLtQ — it's Princess Maker with hundreds of Bad Ends, right?  Are the fail states the actual point of the game?  Seeing how things can screw up?

             

Rock Paper Shotgun just made KRZ their Game of the Year.  Congratz.  Go read; the piece is well written and doesn't have spoilers.

But $12.50 seems like a lot of money these days.  I've been jaded by deep discounts.

Oh, it's a season pass thingy.  You'll get the last three episodes when they're done.  That's a bit more reasonable, but I generally don't buy games before release.

Still, tempted.

It's more of less DF that trades some depth for better graphics.
As with DF its still in development so the depth part will mostl ikely improve while DFs graphics most likely will never budge (while becoming so deep it pierces the planet the game is set on straight through and digs through vacuum straight into the middle of the local star).

It's okay. It seems deep at first but the illusion fades quickly. It's a pretty linear game in that it branches off a bit much later into the game, but for the most part you'll be replaying the same beginning and middle over and over again. There also aren't hundreds of bad ends. More like.... 20.

Many of the choices and options seem very arbitrary. Then when the magical shoujo girl thing starts coming out you'll be like... "...".

Also, you don't actually do anything beyond acting like a little girl. You don't rule anything. You can't command troops or commit political intrigue. Even when you become a magical girl, you can't actually do anything particularly magick-y.

Hmm... if I were to summarize it, this is a game where trying to look your best for a royal ball is the pinnacle of its depth.
