Because- lemmy needs more participation, here is my deal.

Sometime tomorrow, I will come back and check this thread. (Around noon-ish / lunch time CST), unless I get delayed. If so- then afternoon CST.

Edit- to give a few more choices.

I will give out a key, of your choice, for the top 5 highest voted comments (from the perspective of my instance).

If, there are multiple comments for the same game, only the winning / highest voted comment will be considered.

Obviously- the two which have the status of gifted, are unavailable. Have fun, good luck. If you win, I will reply under your comment. If you are skipped due to asking for something already claimed, I'll also let you know that.

Will send keys in a PM. (Hopefully- those work on here)

You are allowed to say, "I'll take anything" in which case, I will go in order, left to right, then top to bottom, and non-randomly give you the first one that pops up.

Edit- Done!

Giveaway #2 is up here: https://lemmyonline.com/post/7869

Thank you for your generosity!

I'd love to give Basingstoke or Rise of Industry a go.

I've probably got some unredeemed Humble keys I can add to your offer.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I would love Bioshock Remastered or Saints Row: The Third

Kudos for not posting naked keys.

Beat Hazard looks really interesting to me.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Great game. Especially if you have a gamepad.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is a great idea. I don't need any more games but thanks for doing this and building the community and engagement!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Every bit helps, a little.

Although, fair warning, I'm gonna upvote you just for the excuse of giving you the game code for one of those obscure indie games. :-D

Edit- since the above comment has a chance, Y'all should let me know what game we should give to tasty! (Assuming, he places)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Tasty needs Heave Ho.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I'll offer up my extra copy of Antichamber and Half-Life 2, any takers?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I mean, I've always wanted to play those games but haven't gotten around to buying them.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Antichamber is reaaally good, and a big ol' mindfuck

Half life 2 would be awesome

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I don't want a key, but thanks for the giveaway!

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Hello~ I'll put @Crotaro for Void Bastards,

it was made by an Australian group that made this online group of friends take over stars real life time strategy website game Neptune's pride

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hiho! I'd be here for Void Bastards as well. Ever since I saw the Let's Look At on Northernlion's channel, it's been sitting on my wishlist.

Wow Humble has gotten bad. I remember having a sub years ago, and it was the exact same games being offered.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

This- was some of my keys I didn't redeem from years ago. 2020-ish.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Don't need any games but thanks for doing this!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Railway Empire is one I have had my eye on

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

I will take warhammer 40k gladius if you don't mind.

Will send keys in a PM.

Does lemmy even have private messaging¿? I haven't seen any option anywhere

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

it does, but you have to go to someone's profile page where it's a button

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah i searching and figured that out. Though it is somewhat clear that messaging is not lemmy's forte and considering that lemmy main purpose is being a link aggregator i guess its better this way

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think so-

It, at least gives me the option to send you a message. Although, I don't know how private it is. Might have to test this..... beforehand.

If, that doesn't work, guess we can meet up in my discord.

Thanks for doing this! Participation is so important right now as Lemmy gets started.

I want to give a shout-out to https://lemmy.ml/c/xbox. Always need more people to talk Xbox!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (7 children)

Hey, good luck to everyone, and super big kudos to OP_Not_Found for doing this!

Uh, let's go with Yuppie Psycho.

This is really cool of you! Thank you, regardless of who wins what.

I'm interested in Rise of Industry, or else Chess Ultra. Or otherwise maybe whatever Verlet Swing is? Or Swords of Ditto? Or else I'd take anything - honestly there're a lot in this list I don't recognize that have intriguing thumbnails!

Giveaways are a great way to get people in the door. Thanks for doing this. Entering a giveaway was all that was missing from my Lemmy experience. Now I'm wondering if anyone has made a Gift of Games community yet.

Gonna toss in an entry for Metal Unit.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Giveaways are a great way to get people in the door.

That was the idea! I believe Lemmy is going to places, especially as spez continues to shoot himself in the foot. So- doing all I can to promote and help it along.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I sure would like railway empire, but I dont really need it. However I really like your idea, this is very cool

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Such a cool (and generous) idea! I only recently got back into gaming thanks to the Steam Deck. MO:Astray looks right up my alley. Crossing my fingers for some upvotes!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Pardon my ignorance, but did you buy these, or got them for free, or won them? Just curious how that works.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Looks like they are from Humble Monthly, so bought.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Old humble bundle games.

If I recall- for 30$ a month, they used to offer a bunch of game keys. I ended up cancelling years ago, because.... well, most of the game keys were not that interesting.

Not here for games, but I want to shout out Heave-Ho! because it's a wonderful co-op game! Goofy physics co-op platforming. :)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Hello, I'm interested in MO: Astray.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

God damn people are generous.

I don't use computers, so I'm not eligible, but I just want to say thanks for doing this! I'm sure people are going to love their new games!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Always wanted to try Void Bastards. Thanks for doing this, very generous!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I've been meaning to get swords of ditto ever since I played enter the gungeon! Does anyone know if it's worth it?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I don't need a key, just wanted to say you're cool OP.

Gladius is a fun game, sorta like Alpha Centauri but with 40K flavour.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I think I have most of these from humble or epic free. But thanks for being so generous .

Edit: maybe rise of industry

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I don't need to enter the giveaway, just want to say this is really awesome of you.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I'll take anything!

Thank you!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thank you for doing this! I recently got into chess and would love chess ultra. Currently I'm playing on chess.com but would be nice to have other options

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You can put me down for Verlet Swing and Heave Ho in that order

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

This is such a clever idea, I might have to do one of these sometime. Verlet swing, Heave Ho, and Chess Ultra are awesome. I believe game grumps played these three
