    You should check it out. It recently appeared on Steam.

    Saw it on Steam, kinda looked it over as just another Alpha Release of a game with too much isolated hype. Reviews seem good though, might check it out if it goes on sale.
     
  3. It's actually very good.

    I started it up at 11 pm expecting a dull puzzle game. I left at 10 am after beating it. Only a handful of games in the past twenty years made me sit through the entire night.

    I saw it appeared on GOG.com yesterday and watched the trailer then. It does look interesting and what you've said makes it even more so. Is the story really as good as they say?
     
  6. It has a couple minor cringeworthy plot points related to using a sci-fi cliche, and some puzzles have solutions that aren't readily obvious and I got stuck at those, but it's great overall.

    EDIT: To rephrase: It's not perfect, it's not an AAA title and it has plenty of flaws, but the story got me hooked up for ten hours in a row from start to finish.

    Will have to give it a try at some point then, though I will probably wait for a price drop. Btw, your new sig from Space Odyssey is brilliant. :)
     
  8. There is supposed to be a sale soon, so wait for that.

    I like it too, but it doesn't loop and it's got a bit of distortion.

    So, it's not moon-nazis anymore, but moon-soviets? :D

    Also, it looks like they're building stargates at two points in the middle of the trailer o:
