Also looking at Fortune Summoners and FTL, along with Cortex Command (Didn't notice that until now).

Fortune Summoners is fun. It's got a cute storyline that isn't excessively sweet, the combat (while a little slow and awkward until you start learning new moves and combos) is really good for a 2D platformer, and the AI for your allies and enemies is nothing short of amazing.

FTL is like most roguelikes: challenging, frustrating, and addictive. It's reasonably short - you can beat a game in just a couple hours, assuming everything goes well - but you unlock new ships and loadouts as you play so you can keep trying new strategies.

Finally, Cortex Command is a real love-it-or-hate-it type of game. Some people love it for it's pixel-based physics and terrain system, brutal combat, and ridiculous modding community. Others hate it for awkward controls, simplistic campaign, and substandard (but improving) AI. I fall into the first category myself.

Does anyone else pretend to conduct when listening to an awesome orchestral soundtrack? Because that's what I'm doing right now :D

Hold up, since when can the governments of the world agree on anything?

I think my computer picked up some sort of virus. I'm suddenly getting blank ad panels popping up on the sides of websites that have never used advertising before. And they're popping up just about everywhere, including my school's website, so I don't think it's a coincidence <_<;

Check for processes with unusual names. Kill them. Check services, too. Stop/remove them. Remove files from your computer that you didn't put on there.
Working on that. Also running full system scans for viruses and malware. If the problem persists I'll need some heavy firepower.

I come home from a late school night after a long and exhausting day.
What do I find?
Homemade tacos and strawberry ice cream waiting for me.

My family is <3 sometimes.

Adding a late +1 to Analogue. The whole story gave me a solid 8.1 on the feels-o-meter.

That's nothing. My dad had a bigger fro than that at one point.

A friend of mine asked his girlfriend to marry him.  And he did it through a website he made himself.

'dawwwww <3
So...what'd she say?

I just had an idea:

Is there room in the plot for an incompetent early-game boss that, upon defeat, proclaims himself as the party's rival and follows them around for the rest of the game? Because I wouldn't mind being that :)

Nope. It's a single-player storyline, without much in the way of re-playability. Still, it's worth checking out just for the surreal aesthetic.

I went ahead and picked up KoTOR2 after all. It's stupid cheap, I love Star Wars, and the sale ends in less than four hours. Might as well!

@ majikero: Zeno Clash can be thought of as a first-person brawler. You punch and kick really bizarre characters in an even more bizarre world.

The default system seems to be Weapon, Shield (if applicable), Armor, and Accessory. I'm sure you could finangle a way to add more slots if needed.

Be specific about what you're looking for and how much you can spend?
