Deals so good, you won't want to fall asleep.
You remember back when you used to walk into a store, browse the shelves, pick out a game, and then buy it--all in the actual real world? We don't know about you, but most of us at GOG.com have had our limbs atrophy to small vestigial nubbins since all of our shopping happens online these days. Of course, one thing that sometimes happens in real world stores with real world goods--particularly when they have a good sale--is that they run out of stock. Usually that means that the deal was so good that they couldn't keep up with demand.

Well, in the digital realm, this is usually pretty rare. How do you run out of stock on digital games, short of entropy devouring the universe? Well, we have gotten 101 games that will be on sale on the front page of GOG.com, but the discounts are so high at the moment that we can't just sell an unlimited number of copies of these games: we are only able to sell a few at these discounts--up to 80% off--and once they're gone, they're gone.

So what games will be on sale in our Insomnia promo? Bestselling classics and new games alike. There will also occasionally be some free games in super limited numbers (like, 20 or 30 copies)--if you're fast enough on the trigger finger to pick 'em up, that is. The deal will run from now until we're out of "stock" of games for the sale, and games may show up more than once. So it's time to bathe in a tub of coffee*, dip some espresso**, snort an energy drink***, or do whatever else it takes to stay up so you don't miss out on the best deals on fantastic games on GOG.com since summer.
*This is probably not a good idea
**This is definitely not a good idea
***This is totally safe, though****
****NO IT'S NOT WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU CRAZY PERSON

bradelli: Rayman Origins is the best platformer you will ever play. It is great with 2 players too. I have it on the Xbox so no real need for it here, but try it if you haven't!
Rayman Origins is a great place to start with Rayman, but best platformer is arguable.
Rayman Origin's a fine game. 600 copies posted at this hour, though... I think that's my cue to hit the sack.

You still have a chance.

mantarrochen: Would you mind telling what the keyboard layout while playing these games? Movement, Jump, Use, Magic attack and Special needs to be bound. In Rogue Legacy you only have the letter and arrow keys to bind to...

I think the most confusing is that WASD isnt for movement any more (with the default keys) I think I cant wrap my head around that. Also that UP means USE and for jumping you have an extra key.
I personally used back in the day:
* Up-down-left-right: Directions or WASD, depending on the game or if playing 2P on the same keyboard.
* Space: Jump. Always put a thumb on it so you can press it at anytime.
* Z or X or C or V (if using directions): Other not so important controls.
* F or G or H or J (if using WASD): Other not so important controls.

I actually use a pad because my main platform from 2006 to 2013 has been the Xbox360, but trust me, platformers can be more precise when using a keyboard. More training is required, but it pays off.

BananaJane:
I'm assuming that the one-eyed purple blob in the second pic is the other sister?

Piranjade: Hi there!
How long did Giana Sisters last in the third round?
Bout 3-5 mins
Why do I get the feeling that Jade Empire will only have 100 copies to sell after all this 600 bs? :D

Only on 2-3 games. The 3rd round has been a lot slower, stalling on maybe a third to a half of the games

The first round took like 8 hours to go through the 101 games + freebies.
