Right now I'm playing through the games of the great humble bundle from last month. I absolutely loooove Else Heart.Break(), despite the annoying graphic glitches! Tons of fun exploring and building a library of networked routines :)

Tried a bit of Sunless Sea until the wrong key got revoked, then switched to Never Alone. Looking forward to Doorkickers, Outlast and Retro City Rampage DX.

Also played a lot of Descent Underground, Descent and Descent II. And a bit of the new Unreal Tournament.

Funded!

That is going to be an excellent game and I am eager to play it next year :)

I love the Overlord series, they are the better and of course much funnier Pikmin. Their writing was done by the lovely nerdy Rhianna Pratchett, daughter of the marvelous Sir Terry Pratchett, author of the famous Discworld novels, who died almost a year ago. I highly recommend the Overlord games to everyone, regardless if you already played them or not.

Whack some sheep for the master! :)

I am amazed that they kept the deformed cube as the basic building block in level design for the reboot more than 20 years later. And in contrast to Underground Overload puts singleplayer first, multiplayer later.

On the one hand I really feel obliged to back that project, not only because of the nostalgia of Descent being the first original game I bought in a store for my first self-owned PC, but of course also because the Linux version isn't a stretch goal anymore. On the other hand, I'm worried, because the Descent community at large should have amassed pledges soaring this project well beyond its goal already.

Even if I won't send them some money on KS over the next weeks, I still upvoted their entry on Steam Greenlight [External Link].
