Not free to play for 24 hours, actually free. If you install it you get to keep it. LIMBO is actually a pretty great platformer you all need to try.

A few people messaged me about it and I agree it's worth a quick shout out. Not much to say another than hooray a free game, go check it out.

It has been on Linux for some time now, originally a Wine-port by Codeweavers, it was later turned into a full native port.

Quoting: HoriOh and the Windows-only category its pretty nice because it will be hidden by default and when a game gets ported it will pop up in my library list and I will know... like a notification.
I do the same thing, it makes it so much easier to find the new ports when they get released.

Quoting: HoriFor me, categories work just fine... I have an "All", "Windows-only", <insert-genre-category-here>, "Junk", "Unplayed", etc... I just put the games I don't need in the Junk category and remove them from all the other

I've done this aswell, I have A, B, C, D and Z and I personally rate my games so I play the cream of the crop. The problem is for some reason Steam has deleted my categories probably 3 or 4 times.

More recently I've start to tag according to 1 Player, 2 Player, 3 Player and 4 Player because I like to do 3 Player Local Multiplayer with friends in my living room.

It's easy actually since half a year or so. In the Steam client menu (no need for the website support) go to
>Help >Steam support

There select "Games, software, etc." Then type in the name of the game in the search box below. Select the game listed under "PRODUCTS". Then select "I want to permanently remove this game from my account". DONE!

Generally you will be noticed if the game was part of a bundled key/purchase, because it will delete all other bundled games with that *specific* purchase. (Example: Bought Valve Complete, want to delete Portal (why?), that will delete Valve Complete Pack entirely.) But you will have to tick a checkbox and you will be warned about this.

Thank you kind sir, I think I got it in a Humble Bundle, and I played through it extremely sleep deprived all the way until 7:00 AM, some people are more sensitive but this game made me feel a special kind of creepy, and I probably had nightmares too afterwards so going back after all the hype I would have just been like nope.

There should be a "slit your wrists" tag on steam as some media makes you loose faith in humanity.

It's some kind of art. It may not be for everyone, but I enjoyed the game the way it is. Do you never ever had nightmares in your life?

This game actually did come off as a nightmare in and of itself. I guess maybe people with self destructive personality disorder might actively search for things that are bad for them. I'm glad you enjoyed it, I respect others right to opinions as equally as I value my right to spew my personal ramblings off into the almighty Ether.

Good little puzzle game. Although maybe a bit dark in style for some people as I found out by reading the Steam store reviews. Planning on playing it some more later.
