Let's get Lugaru + Overgrowth on Penguspy.com!
This is a new site that provides a much more aesthetic repository of some of the best and most importantly *finished* Linux games. However, 0AD got a listing so I don't see why Overgrowth shouldn't. Also I notice that Lugaru hasn't been added. Yet
I think it's our duty as fans to spam the "suggest a game" feature until both Lugaru and Overgrowth get added who's with me!?
Penguspy - suggest a game
Let the games begin

Youtube video is required. I'm not aware of an 'official' video that would be suitable.
edit: I'm talking about Lugaru.

Dang, didn't realize it was youtube only...
The best Lugaru video by far is the contest winner - you know the one with the Dragon Force music? Someone ought to move that over to Youtube...

I'm giving it 10 - reckon they'll be enough people saying: "Rabbits? Well then, it obviously sucks" to bring the mark back down again...
Actually 9 - World of Goo alone deserve a 10, and perhaps Overgrowth (something to work towards?)

World of Goo is overrated. I mean, it's fun, but it's not that fun. I've had more fun from plenty of other games, so why is WOG so hyped?

Oh but it is that fun Besides, Lugaru might have amazing gameplay mechanics but it doesn't have WOG's degree of polish: the sound, music and artwork are all fantastic. Most of all though it's funnyEagle0600 wrote:World of Goo is overrated. I mean, it's fun, but it's not that fun. I've had more fun from plenty of other games, so why is WOG so hyped?
I'm a Monty Python fan and it's hard not to appreciate the ridiculousness of the game. That and it takes a stab at Google, Corporations and all sort of other things...

Hmmm...Eagle0600 wrote:why is WOG so hyped?
Because it's one of the few truly *original* games to come out in a long time?
Because it's got a funnier storyline than our corporate overlords at EA would ever let us hear?
Because the artwork and music are stunningly beautiful?
Because it's dirt ass cheap for what you get?
Because they bothered to release it across all three major platforms?
Because they actually treat their users as friends that they trust rather than just wallets to be controlled (eg it was intentionally released DRM free)...
Because the gameplay mechanics are razor sharp?
Because it's easy to pick up and start playing, yet has incredible variety?
Because it's sense of humor is just plain twisted and surreal?
Need I go on?

No, these are good things, but they also apply to many indie games. I love indie games, and WoG was good, I agree. I just think that all these qualities people are praising it for can be found in other indie games as well. Indie games that aren't getting nearly as much publicity.
