Steam Greenlights Over 20 More Games

Valve, creators of best-selling game franchises (such as Counter-Strike, Half-Life, Left 4 Dead, Portal, and Team Fortress) and leading technologies (such as Steam and Source), today announced the second set of titles proceeding to worldwide distribution opportunities through Steam Greenlight. This second wave of titles was originally targeted to include at least 10 titles. Given the number and quality of games submitted, and the ship date of many of the top-ranking titles, the decision was made to increase the size of this group.

Steam Greenlight is a new platform feature that enlists the community's help in selecting some of the next games to be released on Steam. Launched on August 30, Greenlight allows developers and publishers to post information and media about their game in an effort to convince Community members that their game should be released on Steam.

Like the first set, this second set of titles to launch via Greenlight will be released independently in the months ahead (as they are varying stages of completion).
For more information, please visit this page.

Greenlight's Second Set of Titles
  • Afterfall InSanity Extended Edition
  • AirBuccaneers
  • Blockscape
  • Contrast
  • Fly'n
  • Folk Tale
  • Forge
  • Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams (Project Giana)
  • Gnomoria
  • Interstellar Marines
  • Lost Story: The Last Days of Earth
  • Miasmata
  • Miner Wars 2081
  • NEOTOKYO
  • Octodad: Dadliest Catch
  • Perpetuum
  • POSTAL 2 COMPLETE
  • Secrets of Grindea
  • The Intruder
  • The Stanley Parable: HD Remix
  • Yogventures!

And still, I look at the games I really would enjoy and know I'll never see them get placed through Greenlight as they're very niche.


LONG LIVE CLASSIC STRATEGY BOARD-TOP GAMES TURNED INTO VIDEO-GAMES BUT WITH GOOD FEATURES!!! (Could really use a Senryaku game released on the PC)

giana sisters is made by the studio that was founded by the guy who made the original game...he has died a few years ago, so his former employees make it in tribute to him...more or less...
it succesfully went through kickstarter...
there are a few videos and even a prototype to check out...

So, wait. Is Black Mesa officially released on Steam yet? Or are they still testing it for release?

Also, Postal 2 is classic fun for the whole family

Mission accomplished.


Edit: On a side-note, when does HL:E3 get a greenlight?
