I must admit that I feel kinda lousy for buying indie games on sales. But, if anyone has some indie gems let me know.
Survival/resource management or some sort of Coop play could be interesting.
I'll look through my list later, but I wanna plug cook, serve, delicious. It's a restaurant cooking game on acid, so survival is certainly there. Coop as well. Oh... And dirt cheap right now. (-80%; 1.99€)


EDIT: let's see...a few random ones I've played (and thoroughly enjoyed)

Avalanche 2: super avalanche (-65%; 3.49€)
The floor is lava and some God is playing tetris. You're tasked to keep climbing up on the falling blocks. It's just one level (with random falling blocks), but it's great fun. It has survival, and seeing how you can collect coins (and deposit it in banks) to buy stuff for future runs, this'll tick the boxes.

crypt of the necrodancer (-80%; 2.99€)
One of the best roguelites out there. There's barely any resources to manage, but the awesome music and moving to the beat is great.

rogue legacy (-80%, 2.99€)
a roguelite metroidvania clone: you make your way through a randomly generated castlevania castle, though you'll mostly be collecting coins. If you die, you have to start again...but your heir can use your captured gold to buy upgrades to him- or herself (thus slowly increasing your chances to get somewhere).

don't starve (-75%, 3.74€)
It's already mentioned. I can't but repeat that.

steamworld dig (-75%, 2.24€)
It's digging down to the center of the earth, surviving against the creatures that live there, and gathering resources to increase your life and drilling equipment.

orcs must die 2 (-67%; 4.94€)
It's sort of a tower defense game: a bunch of orcs will come at you, and you have to build traps to help you get rid of them.


outland -90% (0.99€)
A metroidvania mixed with ikaruga. WAY better than the current asking price.



Note: of course I can throw a whole bunch of other games your way. However, I'll only mention what I've played, liked and that are sufficiently priced down.

I'm not sure. Life is Strange is on my list.

Is it possible to play Overcooked online?
You don't want to play it online. It is ludicrously difficult already with two people in the same room that have known each other intimately for more than 5 years, able to communicate right away.

I cannot imagine it with some one you don't converse with daily and latency.

I see. Never played it myself. Thanks!

Anyone played Virginia?

I have a few games already in the cart. do the games remain on sale throughout the time period or do they lose discount once other games get a price cut too?

Kalimba + Dark Void DLCs. For both one and two player (only local co-op). My favourite puzzle platformer in recent years.

Red Rope: Don't Fall behind - again only local co-op. Dungeons kinda like first Zelda, rooms are one screen and you get to next by defeating enemies and solving puzzles. Only that the both players are tethered together with a rope, and the only way to get rid off enemies is with the said rope.

Finally buying several titles I've wanted to buy (mostly indie stuff), and I'm looking through to see if any games I don't know of interest me.
So far I've picked up Audiosurf 2, Crypt of the NecroDancer, Pony Island, A Story About My Uncle, BattleBlock Theater, and Portal.
I also picked up Wallpaper Engine. It wasn't on sale but I've been meaning to get it anyway.

Man...a little late to the party ^_^"

Can someone recommend any new games to pick up that are not in my library ?

http://steamcommunity.com/id/breaktube/games/?tab=all
SpeedRunners. Buy it.
Ditto on that recommendation.
I would also add Really Big Sky ($2.50), Portal 1 and 2 ($3), VVVVVV ($1.24)

Edit: I guess I'll also ask others if they have any recommendations:

As you can tell by the list I like indie and rhythm games.

Based on your list and recent acquirements: you'll probably love one finger death punch or kickbeat. The former is more a reflex than a rhythm game (but ooh so satisfying). The latter is like guitar hero with 4 (directional) buttons that spring a punch animation.
A bit harder guess is infinifactory: it's the sort of puzzles of spacechem but in 3D, and more focused on the process of getting something to work rather than the actual solution. I'm not too familiar with terraria, but I think it also plays in that whole "making it work" thing.

@breaktemp: it's not that I don't want to recommend games to you, but your most played games are ones I barely (or at all) know about. And that makes it pretty hard to guesstimate what you would like. :)

I don't have a comp that can run the games I've bought . But I'm okay with that because when I do finish building my new desktop, I'll have a bunch of games ready for me ; u ; going down the drain~
