Save 10% on A Valley Without Wind on Steam

A 2D sidescroller without a linear path. An action game with tactical combat and strategic planning. An adventure game that lets you free-roam a vast, procedurally-generated world. A Valley Without Wind defies genre stereotypes.

Looks pretty interesting. If you like the sidescroller nature of Terraria and the run and gun of MegaMan, this looks to be pretty cool.

It looked very cool but this is what sold me:

Play as a long line of brave adventurers. It's not a question of IF your character is going to die, but WHEN. Any character that dies is permanently lost, but you keep all your inventory, enchants, and general progress in the game.

It reminded me a lot of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (or Circle of the Moon/Aria of Sorrow) in the trailer!

yup - promising indeed.

It's really fun. Lots of exploring and the graphics are a lot better than the trailer makes them look. It has a demo too which is nice to get a feel for it.

Ohh I missed that. I'll look for it tonight.

They're releasing updates frequently, which is nice. Not just bug fixes but honing gameplay mechanics based on user feedback, enhancing mod tools, adding new monsters and weapon modifiers. Their 1.008 update was released May 3, not March 3rd as it says.

Yep, picked this up a little while ago. Didn't really enjoy it at first, but the game's growing on me. There is supposed to be multiplayer I think, so hit me up on Steam if anyone wants to give that a shot.
