I briefly saw your post about it on BLAEO but didn't get the chance to reply. I hope you manage to get it fixed/replaced soon :/

Well if I save up I should at least have one in around 2 months plus I brought my self a psp with a yugioh game and got kingdom hearts for my ps2 so who needs a laptop anyway

Oh spirited away. Was wearing a top of that the other day. Apparently the easiest black tops to get to was 4 ghibli. 2 princess mononoke 1 spirited away and 1 totoro (do have 2 other totoro but differently style)
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh gosh, now I envy you so much! Would love to have some top with these.... T_T
Comment has been collapsed.
All my tops contain some sort of anime or gaming reference. Like current one has attack on titan while the other day i had the dog from fallout. I do have some tops that aren't like that but then they are youtuber related instead. I got way to many tops compared to my trousers but im excited to find out what top ill get in my rick and morty crate in the future so it will continue to grow slowly
Comment has been collapsed.
I have mostly game related clothes... Mass Effect and now some new ones from Hollow knight. Anime things don't sell here or are ugly, so I would need to ship them and that's rather costly, but when I see something adorable I go for it. ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
I kind of wish I had saved Slime Rancher for this month, since I played it obsessively and finished it after reaching 50+ hours total (40 hours in June). It would fit the theme good =D
Also, does Hollow Knight count?
Comment has been collapsed.
Also, I finished playing Hustle Cat but I only did 1 character's route. Do I have to do more & unlock more achievements, or is this fine?
I'm considering doing the routes of more characters later but not right now if this is enough =D
Comment has been collapsed.
Yep, you can play Hollow Knight! ;)
It's an amazing game, with powerful story. And so so so beautiful! I love it. :3
Sorry, won't offer an answer on the second question as it would be better from Mouse. ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Okay then, I'm going to be playing Hollow Knight non-stop, thanks =D
Comment has been collapsed.
I've played around 2 hours already and I'm still not able to defeat the first boss. =D It's going to be a long month!
Comment has been collapsed.
I know it all too well! :D Don't worry it will get worse! XD
Take it easy, no stress, you just have to find the right pace. ;)
Good luck!! :)

It's haaaaard. But the hardest part is going around the map, not knowing what to do for 40 mins straight LOL. I like it though! Thanks =D

Hm I get a 500 error when I try to open the July challenge event page 🤔
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, I saw it. Hopefully should be fixed when Mouse gets home and sees my message :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Not so sure about the animal heads. You have to kill some rats and spiders I think 🤔
Not sure if that counts as hunting. Other than that you might get farther with the love/hate theme. But it's been a while since I played that game.
You know if you don't have a fitting game from your SG wins you are always welcome to join with your normals backlog.
But first let mouse weigh in on the matter.
Comment has been collapsed.
You know what, I think that in honour of this pagywosg I'll play The Hive or Oogie GearVR on the Oculus Go. Either this or finish Mr Cat’s Adventure. (I play almost exclusively on the Go these days, unless it's with my son.)
Comment has been collapsed.
Probably not going to finish any of them (though I did play a little The Hive and Mr Cat's Adventure).
I did play The Well, which is a very nice (simplified) RPG, and NPCs there are animals. Probably won't finish it this month either, but I expect I'll finish it next month.

Hi, I just beat my game for this month. Is there something else I need to do apart from changing its status on the event page?
Comment has been collapsed.
Nope, you are all good. You can request to join the group here if you want (although I will accept it tomorrow since I am going to bed now) and the giveaways should now be visible for your on the website. Here explains where they are if you are having trouble.
Note: you will have to login again because I just pushed an update on the website that logged everyone out.

If there is a tie in the SG voting, are you going to pick the game theme for August? It appears two choices have 18 votes each.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, it's still 12 of July btw :) But I got your point. I believe that if at the end of the month some themes get the same number of votes, we will allow Kelly to choose one of them ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Ugh ohhh ummm... Very good question. Since I already voted for one of the themes that it is in the tie, I would probably just use a random generator to pick one since it wouldn't be fair for me to "vote" 2x. But hopefully things change till the end of the month :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I guess some voters of the other themes may be switching near the end of month, but why not just let both win if it's a tie? :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Ha! That is a good idea too tho logistically a bit more of a nightmare :P Seems like your idea has now taken the lead ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
tho logistically a bit more of a nightmare
ummm.. I think I should reconsider my idea for December then :D
Comment has been collapsed.
No, I just had the ideas for November and December from the start ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh god lord, I need to know now (mind messaging it to me privately?). Because I kinda had a crazy idea for it too, but I already scratched it off the list because it would be too much of a pain in the ass.
Also what Kyrrelin said.
Comment has been collapsed.
This is definitely the most even vote weve had so far. Since i dont see myself taking part next month ill get rid of my vote if a tie
Comment has been collapsed.
Yup, also the most themes we had so far I think. That works :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I play Reventure now (awesome game, btw, especially for 100% maniacs, it have 100 endings and they are all hilarious), and I can use chicken to fly (0:45 in trailer), and in the middle of the game I unlocked cat & dog characters so I can play as them if I want (1:05 in trailer). Well, I did play as them until I died and unlocked another character. So, the game fits this month theme then, right?
Some endings to lure attention for this little gem:
Comment has been collapsed.
What the fuck o.o that is a lot of endings. How long does one playthrough take? Because it sounds like fun :D
And yes, you can count it for the theme under "Games where you play as animal" :)
Comment has been collapsed.
In the first half of the game you get endings pretty fast, for example, my log:
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:59am #20
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:58am #13
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:51am #19
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:51am #30
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:46am #67
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:35am #5
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:32am #59
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:28am #2
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:25am #16
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:25am #4
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:17am #9
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:17am #35
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:08am #1
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:05am #7
Unlocked 12 Jul @ 12:01am #14
That one from screenshot about tripped over a rock was less than a minute 😂
After 50 or 60 endings I was started thinking and explore map more careful. Map is pretty huge and has many secret passages that are reachable only with special gear, and you can't grab all gear in the game at once (it's heavy, lol, you even can't jump high with it). But when you have a plan to where to go, it's no more than 10 minutes, I think.
Now I have 87 endings and playtime is 13hours. So far the average time is 9 minutes.
And it is fun :D
Comment has been collapsed.
I just bought the game since it was on sale. 5 endings in I already love this game :D Thank you so much for making me aware of it :DDD now excuse me while I go murder some more people with my sword to see what happens :D
Comment has been collapsed.
xD XD
I'm very happy to see that you like it :D
Interesting that without SG I'd never have known myself about its existence :)
And you reminded me that I wanted to create GA with it for August event. I guess I'll add you on steam without playing Portal after all ><

If anyone played, does Bendy and the Ink Machine qualify for love / hate / romance theme?
Comment has been collapsed.
"Bendy and the Ink Machine™" is the first person puzzle action horror game that will forever ruin your childhood love of cartoons."
hmm
will forever ruin your childhood love of cartoons
I'd say "yes", but you need Mouse's or Kyrrelin's approval, I was just passing by :D
edit: and sorry, haven't played
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm, I am not sure... but apparently you will face some cartoon characters, this one on the pic seems like Goofy. So that's an animal for you. ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Based on what Kyrrelin said I would say putting it under "Games about any kind of animal" would work best :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Feel free to start playing now, don't need to wait. :)
Any playtime from July 1st-31st counts, even if you don't add your game to the site right away!

Samwise added a nice surprise to the list of games being given away. You can now find the giveaway for

Completed Bad Rats!
I am a new soul starting from now.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks :)
To tell you the truth, it was easier than expected :)
That wonky physics made it easy to "cheat" and use less objects than expected.. all one needs is a bit a patience and some/several* retries.. it was even fun in the end to find those alternative solutions :)
not always, just sometimes ..the rest was frustrating as you would expect. =P
* luck based
Comment has been collapsed.
Sadly I did not have such a "great" experience with it myself. It took me like two weeks of playing it 10 minutes at a time to beat it because I could not stand to play it more than that :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Perhaps all those bad reviews "hyped me down" (I don't know how to say it, hope it's understandable) so much that I was expecting the worst game ever.. but I have to say that I've played worse games than this.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh yea, I know what you mean. I definitively played worse than that as well. I guess that comes from the time when Steam wasn't so full of showelware as it is today and that game was actually one of the worst on Steam.

10 days to go! Can we beat the records from last month with 1 day more available? :D
Comment has been collapsed.
I sure hope so :) we have more people and games submitted than last month :)
Comment has been collapsed.
To be honest in the beginning I was afraid that "my" month would play just few people... Seems great now, let's see how many can get into leaderboard. ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
It was a nice theme where it is easy to find something to play :) Achievements and playtime are already more than last month and I bet we will get the "beaten games" too =)
Comment has been collapsed.
We already beat that and I have 5 more games in the queue to approve as beaten/completed :) After I am done with that I will update the leaderboard comment to show that there too ^^

Congrats on beating it and best of luck on the 100%! :)
If you add the game to the website you should be able to instantly (well once I approve the playtime in the next 24 hours) see the giveaways available for this month, otherwise I will give you the links at the end of the month.
You can also request to join the Steam group here if you wish :)

Approved both the request and the playtime on the website :)

*looking at my place on leaderboard: Oh my, what a month.. They say it's summer outside, lol
Anyway, I've beaten Super Panda Adventures; have 2 screenshots: steam, imgur,
and have a question: Would it be okay if I upload screenshots /for games without achievements/ on imgur instead of steam? (Like this one above). Or better upload on steam then delete after your verification?
I know I asked similar question earlier, but last time was the case when I couldn't take screenshot at all ><
Comment has been collapsed.
Congrats on beating the game and the place on the leaderboard! :D looks sadly at place 50 :c
I am not picky, you can upload wherever I can actually load the image. You can send it via carrier pigeon too :P
Playtime approved :)

Wow looked at comment under leaderboard and so many people have played a game. This thread seriously took off in the past couple of months
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah especially since the website is active. But this is good since it means more people are actually playing their wins :D
Comment has been collapsed.
63 people have beaten their wins so far, I hope by the end of the month we manage to surpass last month :) And it is also a healthy mix of old and new people too :) I couldn't be more proud of everyone who participated and puts a smile on my face every time I update the leaderboard :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah heres hoping for more. Really good with the site now since before lots of people ignored the whole reply to the comment so all in 1 place to see just how many people actually took part and no 0 beaten people either
Comment has been collapsed.
Really great event, proud to take participate
upd. How much hours i need to play or how much % achievements
updd. need beat or complete game to participate in giveaways?
Comment has been collapsed.
However long it takes to beat the game and whatever achievements you get along the way. Beaten is enough.
And your submission of Kao the Kangaroo: Round 2 does not count. From what I can tell that is not a SG win so I removed it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmmm was trying to complete the main story line of My Time at Portia for this event, but after being 50 hours in (29 this month), I don't see that happening haha! I must say this event has been great, made me complete a fair few games. Have already decided what to play for the next months theme :)
Maaaybe I can complete the last 2 Staxel achievements in the next day or two.. Maaaaybe.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hope you are enjoying your time with My Time at Portia at least :) I been playing it a bit in the last time too and so far it has been pretty nice :)
Glad to hear you are planning to join in next month too ^^ If you want to "pre-submit" the games the event should be live on the webpage sometime tomorrow already.
Best of luck with those ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
Haha yeah it has been fun! Might be time for a break from it though.
I'll probably add games one at a time as I did this month. It then doesn't make me feel pressured with a set list. Plus it allows for me to add things as I complete them which is more encouraging :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Wow, Junes event beat all possible expectations I had. The website also turned out great with a few minor issues here and there that got quickly fixed :) Amazing work to every single one of you who participated, you did amazing!
Hope to see you all again this month :)

Games with surgery theme
Games about love / hate / romance
Card games
Visual novel games
Yes, imaginary animals do count.
Don't have any game that fits the theme?
For this month I have decided to let people play their normal backlog games in case no win qualifies. Please use the "Note" section when submitting the game to inform me of this situation. Still don't have any games that qualifies? WTF, let me know and I will give you one.
You can submit this months games you are going to play here:
