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.
- blindsight ( @blindsight@beehaw.org ) English4•1 year ago
Great game. Especially if you have a gamepad.
Beat Hazard - Won
- saigot ( @saigot@lemmy.ca ) English2•1 year ago
Thank you! looking forward to giving it a try!
- Tastyzero ( @Tastyzero@beehaw.org ) English25•1 year ago
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)
- get_the_reference_ ( @get_the_reference_@beehaw.org ) English7•1 year ago
Tasty needs Heave Ho.
Heavy HO Won! (By popular demand.)

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.
- Cass.Forest ( @cityboundforest@beehaw.org ) English3•1 year ago
You can put me down for Bioshock
- Lemon ( @lemon@sowhois.gay ) English2•1 year ago
PM sent.
- ciagovv ( @ciagovv@lemm.ee ) English3•1 year ago
I would love to have Bioshock Remastered or Saints Row: The Third
- Lemon ( @lemon@sowhois.gay ) English1•1 year ago
Do you have a preference between those two?
- ciagovv ( @ciagovv@lemm.ee ) English1•1 year ago
Not really
- Lemon ( @lemon@sowhois.gay ) English2•1 year ago
Sweet. I PMd you Saints Row as the other commenter also asked for Bioshock.
- bork ( @Bork@beehaw.org ) English2•1 year ago
Wow some real good ones too. Would love to win any one ot those
Basingstoke Won, PM Sent
- Lemon ( @lemon@sowhois.gay ) English2•1 year ago
Thanks very much!
No problem! Thanks for helping support the reddit revolution of 2023!
- knokelmaat ( @knokelmaat@beehaw.org ) English1•1 year ago
So awesome that you are all doing this! I would love Euro Truck to zone out after a stressful day.
- xavier666 ( @xavier666@lemm.ee ) English14•1 year ago
Don’t need any games but thanks for doing this!
- Ganbat ( @Ganbat@lemmynsfw.com ) English13•1 year ago
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.
- Ganbat ( @Ganbat@lemmynsfw.com ) English1•1 year ago
Ah well, thanks for this anyway.
Game is still there, and still available!
This one is gonna go until next Monday
- Ganbat ( @Ganbat@lemmynsfw.com ) English1•1 year ago
Thanks, but honestly, I’m just not that lucky. You should’ve seen my SteamGifts ratio back when I was on the site.
I did a few on reddit… but, it… wasn’t enjoyable.
Had to follow 5,000 different rules to post. And, people wouldn’t even have the common courtesy to give an upvote. lol
- Ganbat ( @Ganbat@lemmynsfw.com ) English1•1 year ago
I know what you mean, I stopped doing giveaways on SteamGifts because I started having users not mark the games as received, which negatively impacted me directly, and even caught one reselling a game I’d given them.
I didn’t have that particular issue- mostly because I only did one or two on steamgifts.
Between people not even being able to return an upvote- combined with the strict rules of the sub- Well… Lets just say- all of these games have been just chilling in my humble bundle for years.
- Schadrach ( @Schadrach@vlemmy.net ) English2•1 year ago
Yuppie Psycho is weird, but awesome in its own messed up way. Hope you get it.
- Blevin ( @Blevin@beehaw.org ) English11•1 year ago
I’ll offer up my extra copy of Antichamber and Half-Life 2, any takers?
- Bumblefumble ( @Bumblefumble@beehaw.org ) English5•1 year ago
Yeah I mean, I’ve always wanted to play those games but haven’t gotten around to buying them.
- Cavemanfreak ( @Cavemanfreak@vlemmy.net ) English6•1 year ago
Antichamber is reaaally good, and a big ol’ mindfuck
- Schadrach ( @Schadrach@vlemmy.net ) English2•1 year ago
But once you wrap your head around it, it’s actually really short. Almost The Witness Any% Speedrun short.
- bork ( @Bork@beehaw.org ) English2•1 year ago
Half life 2 would be awesome
- owl ( @owl@beehaw.org ) English1•1 year ago
well I wouldn’t say no to Antichamber, l’ve been keeping an eye on it for a decade (no not really, but I couldn’t play it in 2013, due to owning a crap PC. I’m still a dedicated low end gamer but I expect Antichamber is within my reach now)
- BenderFender ( @BenderFender@beehaw.org ) English11•1 year ago
Railway Empire is one I have had my eye on
- GasMaskedLunatic ( @GasMaskedLunatic@lemmy.fmhy.ml ) English10•1 year ago
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.
- Sentau ( @Sentau@lemmy.one ) English10•1 year ago
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
- alyaza [they/she] ( @alyaza@beehaw.org ) English7•1 year ago
it does, but you have to go to someone’s profile page where it’s a button
- Sentau ( @Sentau@lemmy.one ) English3•1 year ago
Yeah i was 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.
- Sentau ( @Sentau@lemmy.one ) English1•1 year ago
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
Warhammer Won, PM Sent
- EssentialCoffee ( @EssentialCoffee@midwest.social ) English1•1 year ago
I sent you a test. We’ll see if it works. :D
Did- it work?

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
- Crotaro ( @Crotaro@beehaw.org ) English4•1 year ago
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.
- pushka ( @pushka@beehaw.org ) English2•1 year ago
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 ~ 💕
- Crotaro ( @Crotaro@beehaw.org ) English2•1 year ago
Oh my, thank you dearly!
Void Bastards, Won. PM sent to @Crotaro@beehaw.org
- OOFshoot ( @OofShoot@beehaw.org ) English9•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!
- Pigeon ( @Lowbird@beehaw.org ) English8•1 year ago
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!
- Pigeon ( @Lowbird@beehaw.org ) English1•1 year ago
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 :)
Enjoy!
- Gert ( @Gert@beehaw.org ) English8•1 year ago
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!
- Mugmoor ( @Mugmoor@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English7•1 year ago
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.
- bionicjoey ( @bionicjoey@lemmy.ca ) English6•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.
