For May we got the following stats:

  • 2005 achievements have been achieved
  • 1164.5 hours have been played
  • 93 games have been beaten
  • 47 people have participated.

Great job everyone! Hope to see you again this month :)

Due to timezones/people not being online 24/7 I am still accepting any edits/applications for May for the next couple of days (till the May thread is closed).


Now that we got that out of the way lets get right to the big change: we got a website where you can submit the games you are going to play now! So Mouse doesn't have to do the updates (which take a couple of hours every time) manually anymore :D

Please give a big thank you and lots of love to Ardiffaz (who did the frontend) and insideone (who did the backend). They surprised me by making the site for me and without them the site would not have been ready for this month and nor would it look anywhere as good as it does :) Thank you once again to both from the bottom of my heart!

I present you

http://pagywosg.xyz/

For anyone interested the source code of the website is public on Github.

Due to this being the test run on the website, I would kindly ask you to still leave the comment about which game(s) you are going to play bellow, however you do not need to actually format it or keep the track of hours/achievements. You can also use the comments to explain why you think the games should fit under the theme and discuss your thoughts and feelings about them.


The theme for this month is

Through the eyes of a child

(Thank you to Moony1986 for the suggestion!)

Games that qualify for it are:
Games where the protagonist is a child
Family Friendly
Childhood favourites (Game [series] you liked when you were young, e. g. Sonic, Civ, Fallout)
Fantasy
Adventure
Cartoon
Retro
Pixelart
Classics
2D games
LEGO games

Since pretty much everyone should find something they could play there is no bonus non theme option this month. If you really can't find anything to play let me know and if your percentage of unplayed wins is low enough I will accept normal backlog games instead :)


Theme for July

In the poll below you can vote which theme you would like to be the theme for next month. You can find the original comments here:

Lion's heart
Veni, vidi, vici ludum
Summer In The City


Theme for August

Do you think you have a good idea for a theme for August? Leave it in the comments bellow. If I get more than 1 suggestion I will list them in the poll next month and the one with the most votes will become August's theme.


Giveaway

The giveaway for this month will be something fitting to celebrate the website: while True: learn() (thank you Garandro for the suggestion!) and will be delivered via the website to anyone who beats at least one SG win this month.

Samwise will also be giving away Dragon Age: Origins - Ultimate Edition, Impact Winter, Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain and Lego Worlds <3

Adzik will also be giving away Hard Reset Redux and Super Daryl Deluxe <3

Sylom will also be giving away Batman™: Arkham Origins Blackgate - Deluxe Edition <3

Then feel free to participate with your normal Steam backlog instead :)

Hi i was curious if i could join in ? I recently won Among the Sleep and i think it fits theme perfectly, also i think i can finish it during weekend. (and i really like the idea of this thread/group, it was actually exactly same idea i proposed to do in our Pay or Play group when we were writing suggestions, game themes)

Yes, of course! Anyone can join in :) All you need to do is login into the site and submit your game there. I will approve it as soon as I see it. Once you beat one game I will also allow you to join into the group (but that is just there for some random extra giveaway here and there).

Well, I just completed my Beholder win, and when I reported my 10 year old daughter I got beat up, arrested and executed.
Does... that make it family friendly? ;)
(I may be able to try an entry for real next month if animal wins though. I really should work away my win backlog. Too little gamingtime... so many games)

You first need to successfully participate (and by that I mean beat a game that fits the theme in the month) before you can join the group, but anyone who wishes can join the event :)

There is only a day and half till the end of the month and a new event starting so unless you have something shorter to play (it takes 17,5 hours to beat Redout according to HowLongToBeat.com and it doesn't fit the theme anyways) I would recommend you to join in next month instead :) The theme is going to be this.

I thought I'd love it! I expected to be challenged to design creative yet rigorous solutions to design problems somewhat gamey, but still rooted in reality. Turns out that with its arbitrary constrictions - with respect to design elements, budget, and physical requirements - the game is looking for cartoon bridges.
This turned out to be a small review. You're welcome!

All looks good to me! Completed - 100% achievements, beaten - finished the main story of the game but didn't get all the achievements. For games without achievement pick what you feel is the most appropriate.

And oh god you played Beerman, I feel bad for you.

Obligatory copy paste:
