It's a quote from somewhere on Reddit or GAF, I forget exactly where
Here's the quote:

Oh, and if you didn't know, one of the Superhot devs is a GAFfer. Forgot his name, I'll try and find it

Aeternum - $2.99 (XBLIG, and now on PC)
I've had my eye on this one since before its XBLIG release. Kinda hoping it's not an IGS store exclusive; I'd be fine buying it from them but would like a Desura key for organization's sake.

Horizontal bullet hell shooter full of wacky characters in a magical school setting—but if you're not into that last half, there's an option to turn off all dialogue. 5 difficulty settings ranging from Easy to Lunatic. Peppy soundtrack. Strap on the wings of demon schoolgirl Ellica and fly off in search of your missing best friend.

Remember the stealth platformer I mentioned last thread, Interference?
Now there's an alpha demo. First mission is all about the platforming and stealth basics, second mission introduces the level hacking mechanic. It's awesome

That looks sufficiently noir for my tastes. Downloading.

I'm actually Let's Playing Dustforce right now, so this is awesome. So is the game; hard as balls at times but I keep coming back for more.

One thing I noticed about your article:
You can't upvote it. It was approved ages ago.
Ah, thanks chap! I knew it had been approved - I'll fix that.
Hey, guys! Normally I post all my stuff over in the Indie Game Dev Thread, but I figured this was a significant enough milestone to post over here.
We've completed our vertical slice, our first representation of proper gameplay! Thought I'd post this video here, and see what you guys think. <3
(plz be nice kthx)

Looking REALLY good man.
Edit - Noticed the jump, roll and slide animation you showed off in the dev thread, so slick!
The Stanley Parable demo was hilarious. Leap of polish from the mod to this demo of the final product is not as large as I would have thought. Still feels very Source mod-ish, if that makes any sense. A few reused assets, and it doesn't shake that general Source 'feel'.
But no big deal, still a good looking game and at least it's better looking than the previous incarnation. Should be great, really looking forward to it.
I suggest anyone interested to check out the demo. As far as I can tell it's a separate experience, and not actually 'cut out' from the game.

Jesus, another GAFfer/indie dev making an awesome game? Was it you or someone else on your team who commented on my Twitter post about the game?

Joining GAF last year was the best decision I ever made, this community is indie gamer heaven. And yes the entire concept sounds amazing
Any chance you could say what the KS tier prices will be (or at least if there will be tiers less than $20)? Need to make sure I have enough $$ for it
Oh, and which dev are you? The art style is awesome

I see.
And so you're the guy who's coding all the complex systems and mechanics? Awesome, wish I could do stuff like that. Keep up the great work, I think Darkest Dungeon is going to be something special
Holy Crap, this looks great!
Please tell me one of your influences is Red Storm's classic : Shadow Watch
Either way, super excited!

Wasn't Wasteland Kings Vlambeer's game from the last Mojam?

Have you guys heard of Koya Rift? It was released a few years ago, it's on Greenlight. I have it in my review queue. It's pretty fun, kind of a bullet hell rogue-"lite", You explore these randomly generated caverns and collect power-ups that do things like grant you a shield or drone reinforcements or the ability to phase through walls. Your drones level up and your guns have randomly assigned specs such as homing bullets or rounds that can pass through walls or spread shot. Enemy designs are nice too. Coolest thing is that you telekinetically control your guns so instead of holding on shooting, your guy just raises his arm and the gun fires in that direction. Just looks kind of badass
Some issues are that there's no map (unless I'm overlooking it) and that you have to continuously return to the surface to restore health if you're low, which can get annoying. It's meant to played in short bursts, so extended play can get kind of repetitive

"Do you like the Stanley Parable?"
I do. A lot. Who else is anticipating it now after the wonderful demonstration?

I'm just writing up an interview but I hope to get round to the demo this evening - also send me a PM.

This month has been very busy for me, almost 1/3 of it is gone and I didn't played much of the OP games. 
Also it doesn't help that I've been playing a lot of Terraria lately, I didn't hink this kind of game could get me hooked.

Kenshi just got a nice update, first and foremost adding sound (that's kind of important)

And on the Ethan Meteor Hunter front:
The platforming and pausing mechanic is cool and a lot of fun, even if the jumping is a bit clunky, but that's a thousands time better than stupid areas that try to change up the gameplay and don't offer checkpoints. F#%king eighth time on a Doodle Jump style area and there are no checkpoints. All I want to do is get back to the platforming....

Castles In The Sky is released on October 18th, it's described as a videogame picture-book. Having played through it, that's entirely accurate. It's only about 10-15 mins long, but it's only $1.50 too and definitely worth the experience.

If you want to go in cold, don't watch this Let's Play (which features surprisingly good narration).

Yep and they liked it so much they decided to make a full game out of it. They have been doing regular steams of the development on Twitch as well. The name change, interestingly enough, is because inXile bitched about it being too similar to Wasteland.

Not much of an editor, but I'm interested. Anything specific you want critiqued?

Nuclear Throne is so good, you guys. I've been playing an earlier prototype from this year's MOJAM when it was called Wasteland Kings. It's nice to see the beginnings of a final version.

Possibly the best demo that's ever been. I've put my family through it without telling any of them what to expect and the reactions were always golden.

The demo(nstration) had tons of character and wit and was amazing at how it subverts and plays with player expectations but is that what the final game will be? Like a more abstract, more interactive Deat Esther, essentially? Will there be actual puzzles to interact with?
It's quite good, but obviously lacking in emotional department. Only 2 booths, jeez - Beyond has like 27 of them.
I loved those Thirty Flights of Loving like cuts from the ending of the demo. More games should use this technique, of course when it's beneficial for the story's deliverance.
