The only major issue that I've had is that the game is gaining popularity which means sometimes I cannot log in to the server due to overload!
Really fun when it gets going though. I seem to be mostly matched with Poles and Germans judging by the choices of username and they all seem to be very much more nimble-fingered than middle-aged me :-)
EDIT: speeling.

I'm keeping an eye on this one as I have a soft spot for Apogee and I also like platformers. Secret Agent HD was a great surprise :-)

Quoting: AppelsinWe in the UK left the EU and can order it, so they're sending mixed messages ;-)Currently it's limited to United States, Canada, European Union, and the United Kingdom with more regions becoming available in 2022.Nothing for Norway then (or Switzerland, or Iceland or Luxemburg)? Or is this just a ploy to make us join the EU?

I got really excited about these freebies until I realised I already owned them. Whoops ;-) More for my unplayed or barely-played list of shame...

Quoting: slaapliedjeHa, how is it not Dark Souls? The only thing I've even noticed different in the gameplay is sometimes the 'souls' that drop are dropped as little cubes, which you keep if you die. Other than that, the gameplay and even the level design seems very similar.Well, looking at the promotional illustrations on Steam I sometimes just want to shout "Shakara!" ;-)

EDIT: Too many CTRL-Vs.

I honestly hope this keyboard sells well, but it's not for me without the numpad (and a few extra macro keys). My trusty Roccat Ryos still does the business in this house :-)
