PREPARE YOUR HIPSTER WALLETSAny tips for games that everyone should pick up? My personal recommendations: To The Moon: Fantastic story, great soundtrack, and oh god the feels. Plays in about 3-4 hours. Thomas was alone: Minimalist but great platformer telling a minimalist but great story. Warning: contains Danny Wallace.

Deadlights a piece of trash and not worth even 3 bucks. Kentucky Route Zeros a hopeful investment, the next episode is supposed to come out in 2-3 weeks, besides the Fez PC Port thats the thing Im really looking forward to gamingwise atm. I really liked Proteus, its not really a "game" but its very cool, especially the very first time its exciting. Well worth the price, fantastic soundtrack (reminded me alot of SNES Harvest Moon). Hotline Miami because 60 to car.

I'm with Chug on getting To The Moon, absolutely incredible game.
I'm also going to throw in SuperBrothers: Sword and Sworcery, just because everything about that game is incredible.

I got myself Antichamber. It's exactly the Mindfuckery I was hoping for.

Deadlights a piece of trash and not worth even 3 bucks. I was actually thinking about buying it but I don't know anyone that owns Deadlight to ask about it. What were your biggest peeves? I don't mind difficult sections (from the reviews it seems to be its biggest flaw) if the overall mood of the game is worth it. Oh and I'd also like to point out how awesome SuperBrothers: Sword and Sworcery and To the Moon are. Both are short but powerful experiences with superb soundtracks.

Tbh, I thought Deadlight was ok. Had some major flaws, but did have a couple of shining moments which were enjoyable. It's not gonna be winning any GOTY awards anytime soon, but if you've got £2.50 to spare, there are worse games you could buy

I thought the controls were so awful that it took away all the enjoyment. (note that I used both Keyboard and 360 controller and no improvement on neither)

Thanks for the feedback guys; I was mostly interested because it sort of reminded me of Limbo which I liked. I guess I'll just wait for an indie bundle with it.

Its more like Oddworld than Limbo Id say. More timingbased.

*Shameless Plug* I did do a bit of Euro Truck streaming last night: http://www.twitch.tv/leftismtf2/b/380975351*Shameless Plug* If you imagine it more as a hauling company simulator it's more like that. Eventually you can amass enough money to start hiring other drivers and they'll do other bits of work for you - kind of like a team mate in GRiD.

i would get sword and sworcery next time its in a humble bundle for android. Its worth the money but plays a bit better with touch screen + headphones.

R620's hauling tellies down the M1, new hotness replacing Crock Pots.  Still fun to watch.
