Gang Beasts is a really good game and it's on Steam Early Access
There are other indie games, but not many are more important than Gang Beasts
I GUESS you can talk about those too

I am also real mad at myself for reinstalling orion after that gamergate list.
Huh?
people were posting curator lists in the last thread. one of them was a list of games that got targeted for being sexist or the creators supported Gamergate.
And on that list was Orion: Prelude. A real, bad video game. That i have owned since launch back under the title Orion: Dino Beatdown. a game i didn't really mind at the time until there was a whole buncha stuff about stolen assets that they had to remove, and then they disappeared for 9 months without any updates, and i guess it's being developed under a different company now?
Dope game. Looks FANTASTIC. All the art is real good, looks a lot like the art in Guild Wars, but less painted, I guess would be the word. Feels very vibrant. And the tiles bases and all that, very dynamic as it pops ups into view as your units move past it.
It very much hangs on the frame of Endless Space, but melded with Civ. You can still build your individual units, but each one feels like something from HOMM. And combat plays out a little like a mix of HOMM and Civ, you can set unit placement, it zooms down onto the map and the actual hexes where you are fighting determines height and terrain and all that.
AND it's weird! Like apparently one of the races was sick of roaming space and so just landed and is starting their civilization. So you have space marines, sorta, getting tricked out with plate metal and stuff. Weird and cool game, looking forward to pumping more time into it.
Ugh damn, I gave those guys a dollar once to shoot dinosaurs too.
Wouldn't have done it had I known they would end up being gamergate supporters.
I predict outrage from the usual contingent on account of they didn't interview any pro-gamergate people
They're shitty in nearly every way a developer can be.
This looks an awful lot like WipEout HD.
Which makes me very happy.
And then while I was doing my usual 'these upcoming indie games look great' thing and caught coverage of Never Alone I was pretty damned impressed and sought out a couple articles and put it on my watchlist and then about 3 days later I was like '...wait a minute'.
Fuck yeah, the system works! Also Never Alone looks great!

Saw one in list that was describing itself as an old school arcade side scrolling slasher so thought why not. It's called Dragon's Crown and what in the sweet nine hells, was this entire game's art drawn by the actual living embodiment of 13 year old puberty?
And it's like to such an excessive degree it's kinda creepy, like how many muscles does a single butt need?
Spoilered because blarg , and prob NSFW
Edit: and that's one of the playable characters
It was a bit of a thing, when it came out. People were very critical of it.
The harder the rain, honey, the sweeter the sun.
It's also weird because the art that isn't gross is really pretty and lush and painterly.

I got to play one match of secret poncho
As well as lag.
And the fact that people are insufferable.
