Looks like the site is overloaded at the moment. Some things are not working quite right.
No event/game for this sale ?
Did you just step out of a time machine? Their sales haven’t had games for ages now. Last one was the monster game, iirc.*
*Oh, there was the Saliens in 2018, too, but that was like a one-off.
The 2015 Monster Summer Sale was particularly memorable for me thanks to the music. I downloaded it and still listen to it! Ultimately, though, I’m glad Steam doesn’t have tie-in minigames and flash deals anymore, since it was tedious to have to metagame them for the best value.
I love how they advertise “up to 20% off a steam deck,” but that’s only for refurbished and there’s none in stock.
Initial scroll through looks pretty meh. There a list of good’ns going yet?
Edit-
From another thread, looks like Witcher 3 is 90% off. If you haven’t played it yet, now’s the time!
Very worth it at that price. I thought the DLCs were great too. 180+ hours
I found out that Satisfactory is on sale right now, and will go up in price by $10 after the sale. So if you want it before 1.0 comes out now would be a great time.
Hello fellow lemmies! Any recommendations for new must have indie games?
I just picked up Dread Delusion, Shadows of Doubt, and Stellar Tactics. I played demos of Dread Delusion and Shadows of Doubt a while back, and both of them blew me away; the former just launched out of early access and the latter is supposed to do so before the end of the year. Stellar Tactics is one that’s intriguing, but I haven’t played it yet. I’ve been playing Fallout 2 lately, and it made me want to find a CRPG that was more successful at what Starfield was trying to do; I typed in some tags into the Steam search, Stellar Tactics was what I found, and I think it’ll scratch that itch. Stellar Tactics is also in early access, and it’s been in early access since 2016 with no end in sight, but it’s very systems driven, so I’ll likely be okay with playing it early anyway.
Celeste is 90% off, Kingdom Come Deliverance is 80% off, Braid Anniversary Edition is 75% off. All worth it imo.
Depends on your definition of “new” and “must-have”.
- Grapple Dog 75% off — momentum-based grappling hook platformer with a very funky soundtrack and Nitrome-style 2D art (spoiler: the dev was a Nitrome artist)
- Cobalt Core 25% off — deckbuilding in space! There’s an actual plot with an interesting cast of characters. The board game-style positioning mechanic was what sold me on the game.
- Cassette Beasts 40% off — creature collector with an identity that isn’t just “indie Pokémon”. Cool worldbuilding, heartfelt story, grown-up mechanics, and imaginative monster designs that avoid the “animal + element” formula.
I wouldn’t call Dave the Diver new (released exactly a year ago) nor indie (Mintrocket is a subdivison of Nexon). Yet it’s something that can be recommended wholeheartedly.
Couple of games in no particular order that are pretty new and can be considered as indie:
Crab Champions is not exactly new (I think it’s been in early access since 2023), but it’s really fun and currently just $7.49
