Smannesman: I for one would like to know what you think of it, should you try it.
Gave TRI an initial playthrough. So far it's pretty enjoyable, being essentially an architectural puzzle game. It eases you into the regular controls initially, then gets you building triangles for a few levels before really getting challenging. Just about the time it seems that the style and music will get old, both change up on you and triangles start having localised gravity. This almost forces you to relearn how to build for success, but it also allows for a lot more puzzle scenarios than just regular platform triangles.

The game has no combat or aggressive aspects to it that I've encountered, which I regard as a positive virtue. It's all puzzling, essentially a huge game of hide-and-seek where you have to track down the various idols. The visual aesthetic is pleasing, with some cel-shaded effects and generally crisp environments. The music is used in spots, rather than as a continuous soundtrack, which works well in maintaining a kind of peaceful atmosphere over the game. Nothing really makes you feel rushed or pressured in your play.

So far it is a decent game, though not everyone's cup of tea (but what game is?). I wouldn't be surprised to see GOG pick it up when it is finally released as a finished game, assuming the remaining functionality (such as the bonuses unlocked by finding gold idols) is added and works well play-wise.
By the way, State of Decay is $5

Anyone play it? It seems to me like a never ending sandbox, which sounds dreary. Am I wrong?

Heh. Just came to post about that deal, too. At that price I'm very tempted to grab it. While it does have some sandbox-y elements, my understanding is that the game actually has a concrete end and/or winning condition. Don't quote me on that though.

You may have confused the base game with the DLC...? After checking out its page, it lists an 'endless' mode there as its main feature.

Well, according to this thread, it has an ending. But it seems like it might be worth getting with the DLC than by itself.

It seems that the story progresses only if you focus on it, like the Dragonborn questline in Skyrim. But the storyline prevents after-ending gameplay, so that's neat.

edit: @mistermumbles: I think you're right. Regardless, I'd rather buy them all as a set.

Several people have suggested The Cat Lady to me and one can get it for $3 and DRM-free (or steam key) as part of this bundle.

Loved my time with it. I'd say it's absolutely worth it at that price. In some ways I hoped they did more with it but it was good nonetheless. Haven't played the DLC much yet though. It creates a sort of endless mode with increasing difficulty if I'm not mistaken.

Btw, I think I remember they're releasing another DLC soon (Lifeline), so for some here that may be a reason to not buy it yet.

Edit: Ow, it was a flash sale and it's already passed, ignore this then I guess :p
