The Death Of Steam Greenlight: 5 Of Its Best Games

The Death Of Steam Greenlight: 5 Of Its Best Games

, , , 0

It’s a grey, wet day. Huge beaded raindrops thud and bounce off the umbrellas held by the few mourners who have gathered to see Steam Greenlight off. These people are a mixed bunch, some famous, and well groomed. Others look shabby and unshaven, their faces oddly familiar but unknown to me. Others lurk in the background, not wanting to be seen, they obviously don’t want to be recognised for previous digressions. The funeral of Steam Greenlight is a sad one. Since October 2011, Steam Greenlight has been a service to bring independent games to Steam. Sounds perfect, doesn’t it? You have a fantastic little indie game but no publisher, so why not put it on Steam Greenlight? People vote for for your game, and if it’s popular then Steam will sell your game on their store. It couldn’t be more perfect could it? Actually, it could. The system was open to manipulation and, to be honest, fraud. There’s nothing to stop developers from bribing people to vote for their game

The Thin Silence Lands On Steam Greenlight

, , , 0

The Thin Silence, a cinematic narrative adventure game with both puzzle and exploration elements, told through the introspection and recollection of Ezra Westmark, has landed on Steam Greenlight. Find creative ways to make your way out of the darkness, uncovering the journey that lead him there and the hope that leads him home. Inspired by point-and-click adventure games, The Thin Silence allows you to collect and combine important items along your journey. These items and their combinations can be used to manipulate the environment in many varied and unexpected ways. Obstacles are not intended as a test of your intelligence. Rather, you are facing the same challenges that Ezra faces and thinking creatively to overcome them. Do not expect to solve the same puzzle over and over again. Much like recently indie story-driven (Inside, The Beginner’s Guide, Gone Home, Firewatch etc.) hits, TTS is intended to be a conversation, a 21st century recurrence of an ancient pastime. Sit and stare into the fire, and we’ll tell you a story. The Thin

Lightspeed Frontier Lands On Kickstarter, Greenlight

, , , 0

Lightspeed Frontier is an ode, and a parody, of the sci-fi stories, shows, and movies you grew up knowing, and put you right in the middle of scenes inspired by those sci-fi classics. It will place you in an adventure where you discover missions by observing your surroundings, and investigating through the use of news headlines, billboards, ads, NPCs you encounter, and of course random chance (because what adventure is complete without a little bit of luck?). The sci-fi game has just made its way onto Kickstarter and Steam Greenlight. Lightspeed Frontier‘s world is one dominated by corporations, factions, and space news. Rather than a typical quest structure, you must keep an eye on the game’s news reports and business ads found at stations and across space to discover job opportunities. From salvaging and mining to bounty hunting, business is booming, and your ship can be upgraded and constructed to suit any playstyle. Lasers, engines, shielding, scanners, and other blocky parts can transform your basic fighter into a freighter or

Rule The World, strategy war game in which the player invades tiles to conquer and rule the world, has landed on Steam Greenlight, getting a new trailer alongside the Greenlight campaign launch.

Mind the Trap, a local party game that pits you and your friends against each other in a mix of dungeon platforming and minigames, has landed on Steam Greenlight. The game has also gotten a new trailer, which you can see below. The game plays on the mischievous balance between cooperation and opportunistic backstabbing.

It’s all about finding the right timing to come out on top. Mind the Trap is set to have a number of key features, such as: Intricate Dungeons The dungeons focus on player-versus-environment and are each themed to challenge a variety of cooperative puzzle solving and platforming skills. Cheddar and secret items are scattered throughout, taunting you as they sit shiny behind deadly traps, and it’s every mouse for itself. Outwit your friends and leave the dawdlers in the dust. Grab every cheddar wedge you can and don’t hold back. Versus
