That sounds rough. Fraid I can't help, didn't encounter any problems like that, although if you post them on the steam forum one of the devs might be able to sort it out for you. They seem fairly active on their currently. Their is a late game effect that causes my game to freeze for a second, but I am semi certain that might be intentional and it doesn't sound like it is related to your issues at all.

It's very original, and to my surprise gives very reasonable offerings.
But then I watched the trailer and hummmmm: I like wierd things just like the next guy, but this isn't very appealing.
This just appeared in my twitter feed. I'm seldom a fan of pixel art-y games but this looks like it could be the sidescrolling Hyper Light Drifter. It's coming to Kickstarter on Feb 21st.

The project hails from Barcelona, Spain. The director, Eduardo Fornieles, previously worked in Tokyo as a concept artist on Friend & Foe's upcoming Vane, but left to form his own studio.

How could you not want this based on the radical cover art?

Wow
Seeing that trailer makes me feel the same way I did when I saw Hyper Light Drifter for the first time (that was the first game I backed on KS)

I regretted not backing HLD - due to my pixel art bias - but I think I'll risk this one.
This looks...AMAZING.
It's really relaxing - I've been playing it some.
Night in the Woods in two days! Itching to play!

Hello, can I promote my indie game in this thread?
It is called "Go! Go! Kokopolo 3D - Space Recipe For Disaster" and will be releasing on the 3DS eshop in the next few days (February 23rd in North America / TBA in Europe and Japan)
There is a trailer here if you are interested in seeing more ->

And some exciting screenshots below ->
There are already a couple of threads on here where I talk about the development of this game (and it's predecessor which I developed back in 2011) but just thought I'd drop it in here in case anyone is interested!
Best,

I have installed GreaseMonkey with a bunch of scripts for NeoGAF, and the "Image Scaling" script is a game changer for this thread! Images posted by MB are so big, it is much more enjoyable!
Also, the Youtube script is super useful:

First time last month. It was such a great decision to refund Gamepump and go with Humble
It's totally worth it.
February alone:
Hollow Knight demo + discount
Xcom 2
Steamworld Heist
Abzu
Ryse: Son of Rome
Okhlos
Project Highrise
Husk,

At least one or two great indie games every month
March will include Total Warhammer

I believe Monthly subscribers get 10% off on games? Hollow Knight was $13.49 for me
Oh yes - I thought there was a game specific discount for Hollow in the bundle.
You get 10% off everything in the store - not bad, especially when you also can take 5% of what you pay and put into your wallet for the next purchase. Small things, but it adds up.

For puzzle platformer, Recursed
Pharaoh Rebirth+ is a great Metroidvania.
Elliot Quest is another one of my favorites. Odallus is also great.
These are all stage based, but with large stages you can go back to and find more secrets after you gain more abilities.
If you don't mind a challenge (and instant death spikes) Castle in the Darkness is really good. Lots of secrets and many boss battles.
Not really. But the only seem to occur when I'm using my GPD Win at my girlfriend's with her shitty Internet.
Combat is pretty tricky and gets harder with every boss you beat because your character gets weaker and slower.
Made a thread about it here: http://m.neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=1343574
Thanks.
Will check them out.

Can someone please help remember a game I'm trying to track down?
It's an indie-action RPG. Has an anime aesthetic, with a girl that might either be a cyborg (or just a girl with futuristic armor). I believe it was crowdfunded but I don't know if it's been released yet or not.
I wanna say it had the word "Kronos" in the title, but I'm not too sure. Google hasn't been helping me.

The twist: Organ Quarter will also leverage hand-tracked and room-scale VR to provide the most intense and unsettling experience possible. We're going to bring horror into the realm of the intimate. Horror in your personal space, as well as in the world outside.
Currently for HTC Vive only but can be wrapped to work with Oculus Rift + Touch and will ultimately be officially ported to Rift and non-VR PC.
