    I wouldn't be surprised if there are lurkers who grab the codes when they see them without a word. :(

    I'm actually curious if someone has figured out a way to scrape the forums for those codes posts. I was refreshing as he was posting those (it took me 3 refreshes to see them all), and most were already claimed by the next refresh, only a few seconds apart. Either that, or someone has great timing.

    Hmm, finally trying out this code tag thing, so apologies if I screw up.

    Anyways, a League of Rockets is here, if you so want.

    Loading...?

    edit: well shit, that's awkward timing.
    edit #2: Florin got it, and thanked me in a pm, so yay Florin! :)

    I think that's unlikely as I have seen some codes recently stay there for surprisingly long. You never know though.

    It wouldn't work like that, the code, once you accept it, is sent in a PM. Thats how the mods could keep track of it if required, and to make sure its not being taken advantage of if a dev or something were to drop like 50 keys at once and they all went to one guy or IP or whatever.

    Zeboyd games just put out their latest trailer for Cosmic Star Heroine, and it looks great:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juKE8FvMky0

    I have to admit I wasn't really into the teaser trailer they put out a year or two ago, but this got me a lot more interested.

    I still haven't finished Breath of Death VII, Cthulhu Saves the World, or the two Penny Arcade games they did.

    That is an amazing trailer...

    ...except for the part where PS4 and Vita isn't followed by "Steam." :(

    Yeah, as mentioned, it'll be on PC at launch. Robert posts on Neogaf a lot these days and said it would there. It was a kickstarter game after all.

    Sony hosts a great many indie game trailers on their channel and most (for obvious reasons) only mention those versions.

    I truly hope you enjoy 10M, @Elvenshae

    I installed it myself last night and gave it a whirl. Initial reactions were...lacklustre - the graphics are extremely retro, it took me a while to get used to the particular Match3 concept it uses and I seemed to hit a major progression roadblock very early on in the game.

    Then I did a bit more exploring, something clicked with the base (HINT: make sure you fully investigate all the options) and before I knew it an entire evening (and most of the night) had just flown by.

    I haven't either. I don't remember why I stopped playing JC3 (probably just got distracted by the rest of the giftpile), but it sounds fun at the moment and I'd like to see the new content. Amazing game!

    The game is already huge, but I wish they wouldn't patch the game if I don't already own the Season pass. Don't really need to download gigs of things I won't use.

    This makes me sad because it's not even for sale on the UK site. Still sat there taunting me with its unreduced pricetag.

    But yeah, great for you Muricans :lol:

    It appears Demon Master Chris is much the same as Raidy, so if Sakura Dungeon is anything like that, then there you go.

    "That was Pixie, listeners, on the receiving end of Sakura Dungeon from none other than Shdwcaster. She's gone by many names and piled up many games, but somehow the thread just keeps on gifting. For those just joining us, this is your host Stolls von Stollington, and you are listening to Steam Thread: After Dark - the only radio program that can't legally broadcast during business hours. Now I hope that delivery of soft, round objects at the speed of a T1 line woke you back up, 'cause we are going to the phones. Caller! You are on the air. Tell us, why are you up so late?"

    "Uh, hi Stolls, love the show. I'm calling about Sakura Dungeon! See, it's got the same engine from Demon Master Chris. Y'know, that game that was on that anime porn Humble Bundle?"

    "You're gonna have to narrow that one down, friend."

    "Right, nevermind. Anyway, I just wanted to say that game actually has some pretty good gameplay, you need to check it out sometime! I had to actually use both hands to beat it!"

    "That's fantastic. Not your victory, but the way you phrased that. It is just perfect in every way. *click* Let's go to the next line! Caller, you are live with Steam Thread: After Dark! Pardon the double entendre, but what's keeping you up tonight?"

    "Yeah, I've been playing that ninja tits game, and it's way harder than I thought it'd be."

    "And speaking of low-hanging fruit..."

    "I'm just trying to change this girl's clothes so she'll fight better, or whatever the hell you're supposed to do, but this game's actually challenging and stuff. I basically paid thirty bucks to get my ass kicked by a bunch of schoolgirls."

    "Caller, you got off light. I know people who've paid thousands for that very thing."

    "Really? Who?"
