i think it’s cheapest at GMG since they have that 22% discount “coupon” sale going atm ?
(probably completely unimportant personal query (and far off raving speculations) that has no actual bearings on anything on GMG)
(tho i have no idea how they handle/do region lock games, since there is no mention of it on their store page, assuming they hand out “correct” region keys despite charging in £),
i should probably elaborate on that, usually stores geolocate me to € when they have that option, (and i know GreenManGaming do € for others, and $ for US), so i’m just wondering which/how they’d determine/“designate” my keys for instance (tho usually UK/EU do get the same keys anyways), but maybe that tiny bit “off” geolocation could cause issues for other countries/regions, with/if there is no apparent region notice on the store page … -i think i’ve been spoiled by stores that state which/if a key will activate in my region/country
(tho price-wise, for the games i have bought there, i was fine with the £ currency charging, since those games were actually a slightly cheaper then)
This game is cheap, but it’s a lot of fun. Runs are short, so you are not dedicating a ton of time into it. A good way to kill off a few minutes, or if you have a good run, about 10 minutes.
I purchased it a few days ago when I read an article comparing it to Enter the Gungeon. This is definitely not something on that scale or magnitude. The game is less polished, less features, shorter runs, fewer enemies, but it certainly has that kind of a feel.
I wrote a Steam review of Skelly Selest because I thought it is a pretty good game for its asking price of base of $2.99 and current price of 25% off that makes it a really good cheap game. There are a lot of games that are much more expensive and not developed nearly as well. (Sale ends in little under 2 days from time of this post.)
It has full controller support and there are only a few buttons to use, remapping is completely up to the user.
Some runs have no balance, because you can get a good item/power up early and be over powered completely. I had a run earlier today where I just sat at the face of the boss and attacked, ignoring all attacks, because I had gained so much healthy prior to the boss fight…
But, it’s a good game to check out, so I thought I would share.
The reviews for Shoppe Keep were quite positive until the developers decided to move on to Shoppe Keep 2 instead of making the original better. Seems like a decent game, and the reviews were quite good about the game prior to this happening. Though it is worth mentioning that seemingly the game was not completed, from what I read. There are things that should have been fixed and instead of doing that, they just moved on. It will be curious to see whether they continue any kind of support bug fixes as they are now going to be pouring all of their attention toward the sequel. But, it is free (7000 Chrono coins) from the coin shop, so it’s a worthwhile consideration.
Keep at it! It’s a really fun game, in my opinion. It’s one that you learn and get better at, for sure! Knowing how far you got at Mini Metro, I am sure you will be challenging the Steam leaderboards in no time!
I’m running around in circles and they’re all chasing me! I always get hurt when I have to quickly turn around to swing or shoot. I’m sure I’m just doing it wrong.
I played a few rounds of the card game (is this Triple Triad!?) but got slaughtered every time in that too.
I’m surprised I’m doing so well in that game, but I did think it was way too hard at first. I would have probably never played it if I hadn’t joined this forum. I’ll give Skelly Selest another go.
If you’re a sucker for JRPGs, you could consider getting this one here. It’s a simple sale and there’s also a demo available now.
It’s been re-released / extended, was called Earthlock: Festival of Magic before, and if you want to know the story behind this re-release, have a read:
I’ve played 15 hours then something else made me stop, but I will certainly play the 2.0 and try to finish the story this time. I lost lots of time attending to my garden in-game!
Earthlock was a game that piqued my interest when it launched last time, but it was clear it was suffering some issues so it got forgotten. Maybe this Fixed Edition is worth the time at some point.
Special Edition (includes artbook and OST) is 1.39 or 1.25 for subscribers, but be aware that the DLC comes as direct downloads and doesn’t activate with the key on Steam.
