Games and first software move forward on Steam Greenlight
Valve has announced its third group of approved Steam Greenlight titles. Among them are the service's first ever non-game software, including screen-recording programs and even a game maker: HitFilm 2, DisplayFusion, Action! Screen Recorder, Bandicam: Game Recorder, Construct 2, and You Need A Budget 4. Love the name of that last one. As for greenlit games, we've got: BlackSpace, Darkfall Unholy Wars, Dawn of Fantasy, Dragon's Lair (huh?), Euro Truck Simulator 2, Gear Up, Kinetic Void - Space Adventure, The Light, No Time To Explain, Primordia, Sang-Froid: Tales of Werewolves, StarForge, and Waking Mars. I'm especially happy to see Primordia and StarForge receive enough support. Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
