ITT, flavor of the month games that are never remembered.

>posting an old version
I almost didn't recognize it. Game is art, it is to be enjoyed and move on, only masterpieces are supposed to stick out in one's mind.
>>
literally who?
>>
Stopped bothering with trying to discuss it on /v/ since discussion ends up at "lol only maze puzzles" every time. It's very well-designed and my GOTY so far.

and yet j blow made more money from it than you will make in your entire life

That was the shit for a weekend. Some games can't be more than great for a small moments at a time - nothing wrong with that.

How is it possible for one person to be THIS wrong?

I actually played it for quite a while. Had lots of fun making aircraft, traditional and unorthodox. What killed it for me was seeing people use mods and file editing to circumvent the need for...well, anything. I enjoyed the challenge of engineering a functional and aesthetically pleasing machine within the limitations of the game and people just weren't interested in that anymore.

I don't think I'll forget it. I can't really play games for long without getting bored and The Witness is already at the #3 slot on my most played Steam games w/ 60 hours. My number 2 is Factorio which also just came out on Steam. What a good year for video games.

Development is just too damn slow.
>Played it yesterday after the update and made a chariot
>Kitting it out for war right now
It's still enjoyable, it's just that there's so few campaign levels and sandbox with very little interactibility is not that great.
>>
>>331477952
>Factorio
Kind of got pissed at that game for spawning enemies in my base behind my turrets out of thin air. Fuck that cheap shit.
>>
>>331478228
Did you have a big empty space or something? You have to build something near where the nests are so they don't respawn... just throw down an electricity pole after you kill them.

Pic related.

I would also say Duelyst, but then it wasn't so popular to even be called FOTM.

>>331475917
I'm still glad I learned about it here. Had tons of fun playing it.
>>
>>331478510
does this really happen? I have miles of empty space in between my shit and no outer walls, just a few outposts with turrets along the borders that the aliums never seem to run past.
>>
Will Helldivers join this category? It was super-fun for a few weeks and all anyone I know could talk about and now sometimes I forget it's even installed.
>>
>>331479354
I feel the same, the only reason I still play it is because my friend plays it.
>>
>>331475237
Faggot mods decided it belonged in /vg/ and started deleting any threads about it. Pretty sure it didn't even get its own thread and was forced into the miscellaneous building games general.

I'll remember this game for a long time. Only FOTM because I could barely stop playing it.

I still remember that day. I woke up, went to check some besiege creations and everybody was using this weird flaming ball with saw in webms. I didnt understand it at all, it was like whole hell broke loose. It was everywhere.. And then I saw the real power of it. That thing was way beyond its time. We werent ready.

>>331478889
I've had the aliens literally bumrush past a formation of turrets to go and break my shit.

Had nightmares of SC zerg all over again.

>>331478510
I had a sort of open zone I was filling with solar panels but there were literally no nests anywhere near that area.
