[Closed] Steam code giveaway

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

Kudos for not posting naked keys.
Beat Hazard looks really interesting to me.
- Great game. Especially if you have a gamepad.

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

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.
Edit: For anyone interested, I can offer keys for the following games. Just reply to my comment and I'll use the same system as OP to choose winners.
Bioshock Remastered
Dwarfs!?
Euro Truck Simulator 2
Saints Row: The Third
This War of Mine: Final Cut
Edit 2: Just realised I'm on the other side of the planet from OP, so I'll PM keys hopefully ~6 hours after OP does. That should also give latecomers more time to grab some freebies.
- I would love to have Bioshock Remastered or Saints Row: The Third
  
  Do you have a preference between those two?
- You can put me down for Bioshock
  
  PM sent.
- Basingstoke Won, PM Sent

I'll offer up my extra copy of Antichamber and Half-Life 2, any takers?
- Yeah I mean, I've always wanted to play those games but haven't gotten around to buying them.
  
  Antichamber is reaaally good, and a big ol' mindfuck
- Half life 2 would be awesome

Wow Humble has gotten bad. I remember having a sub years ago, and it was the exact same games being offered.
- This- was some of my keys I didn't redeem from years ago. 2020-ish.

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
- 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.
  
  I uh,, actually have this on epic-games with their free weekly game, I just use steam way more - I'll pass the key onto you ~ 💕

Railway Empire is one I have had my eye on

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

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

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. :)

Pardon my ignorance, but did you buy these, or got them for free, or won them? Just curious how that works.
- 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.
- Looks like they are from Humble Monthly, so bought.
- They are from humble monthly, a subscription service that gets you games each month and some extra perks.

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.
- 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.

Hello, I'm interested in MO: Astray.

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!

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!
- Rise of industry won, PM Sent.
  (And damn, that was one of the ones I would have actually played!)
  That is, 5 of 5, sent!
  
  Thank you so much!! :D I'm hyped to play this :)
  Edit: it took a couple days to remember to check my inbox, but seriously this has made me so happy :)

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!

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

pipipopo

Hey, good luck to everyone, and super big kudos to OP_Not_Found for doing this!
Uh, let's go with Yuppie Psycho.
- You didn't make it for this one, however, I am posting Another Giveaway on one of my communities. Feel free to try again.
  New giveaway will run until next monday.
  
  Ah well, thanks for this anyway.

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.

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

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

No preference just want free shit. Also lov u op <3

There's already lots of comments but suite interested un Sigma if anyone ils willing to upvote me!
- Your keyboard seems to be drunk. Still upvoted
  
  Thanks! Yeah I keep forgetting to switch keyboard language.

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!

Don't need the games, but thanks for the initiative.

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
- it does, but you have to go to someone's profile page where it's a button
  
  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
- 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.
  
  Yeah it does work. Me and @EssentialCoffee@midwest.social tried it out
  I don’t know how private it is
  This I have no idea about next l maybe the admins can illuminate us regarding privacy
- I sent you a test. We'll see if it works. :D
  
  Did- it work?

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

a clever comment, such as “fuck u/spez”, void bastards

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

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

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

I'll take anything!
Thank you!

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

Can the number of votes differ by instances? By how much - a lot?
Edit: I guess it will if there's a lag for syncing. Any other reasons?
- federation issues do occasionally occur.

If it's still available, I'd like Yuppie Psycho.
- It is still there- however, this giveaway is closed/completed.
  However, Giveaway #2 is active. Go check it out
