Title: Frozen Synapse Bundle

Name your price, get simultaneous turn-based tactical goodness. Shoot and/or blow stuff up with your loyal vatform meatpuppets!

My name is ProfessorPaul1290 on the UK1 server if anyone is interested in adding me or challenging me to a game. Be aware that I'm a bit slow with submitting turns at times.

I already own Frozen Synapse and the Frozenbyte Bundle.

That said, for anyone who doesn't already own Frozen Synapse or Trine (the rest of the stuff in the Frozenbyte bundle was underwhelming), getting either for $5 is pretty goddamn good.

Site seems to be down at the moment, but I suppose I have no excuse for not grabbing it this time around. ^^;

EDIT: Picked it up. I already have the Frozenbyte bundle, though, but I do intend to check Frozen Synapse out eventually.

New stuff is already being added to the bundle-- this time, it's Trauma (http://www.traumagame.com/).

Which is awesome, because I really, really wanted to check that out when it was released on Steam, but haven't yet. :D

Wonder if he'll shamelessly advertise his game in this charity, too

Another game has been added. This time, it is SpaceChem (http://www.spacechemthegame.com/about).

It looks rather confusing. =O

SpaceChem is absolutely incredible.  It's so weird and confusing when you start it, but it's basically a combination of chemistry, construction, and circuit boards.  And if that sounds confusing and not very straight forward at all... well, it is.

But that's the trick!  See, SpaceChem is an incredible puzzle game for the fact that there is never just 'one' way to complete a puzzle.  In fact, excluding the occasional tutorial blurb, the game never forces you to solve a puzzle in any given way - it gives you a starting point and an ending point and says "Do this" and you do it.  And then your results are measured up against everyone else who has completed the game and you can see how well your solution stands in terms of efficiency and other statistics.

It's absolutely worth a try.

Also, Luluko, I have a spare gift code if you'd like.

This is what happens when you cram a bunch of rocket and grenade launchers into a small space  :D :

Also, a hilarious final kill with a grenade launcher.
