There's my list, I'm looking for games that are less than $10.

I highly recommend this game:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/364510/Transcendence/

If you're curious, it's also basically free from their website.

Sanitarium is what I will tell everyone to buy. It's cheap and original.

Kind sir, I'm offended that you'd recommend me something that I will likely get addicted to and then will die in it constantly which would get me frustrated.

Now, let me see your face so I can slap it with my glove.

I went and got the free core version and added this one to my wishlist for future sales.

It's hard but good!
Also literally the only other person I've seen that's even heard of this game is Lokarin, and he knows about everything, so that's just standard.

Cave Story(12 bucks) and ftl (4 bucks)are both amazing games.

Even though they aren't on your list, the shantae games are really fun

It looks like it'd be fun to play!

I've played FTL before, but not on steam.

I'd buy the Shantae games just cause Shantae is hot yo!!

The Trails series is one of my all time favorite series of games. Trails in the Sky kicks off what is currently an 8 game long interconnected series (the story is roughly 60% done at this point). The first game can be quite slow (like Fellowship of the Ring slow), as it spends most of its time setting up the world for all the games to come (if you dislike reading, the game is not for you), but the payoff is worth it.

Cave Story and Dust are both great metroidvanias.

Bastion is pretty solid.

I've played Bastion but didn't get to finish it. I do kinda of want to.

FTL is a no-brainer

ah

Starbound is probably great if you like Terraria. (I don't like Terraria, so didn't really like Starbound)

Age of Wonders 3 has amazing tactical combat, but it has a lousy campaign (I thought so anyway). It might have been improved in DLC but I have yet to return to it.

Age of Wonders 1 on the other hand, which I now see listed, is *extremely* good. It's not perfect either, but is very very very very good. The tactical combat is not as complex as AoW3, but the campaign is WAY better than 3 and has WAY more variety.

Age of Wonders 2 is also really great. They all kind of have their pros and cons versus each other. 3 has the crappiest campaign by far. 1 tends to have a problem of small armies in large battlefields requiring too much movement. 2 has balance problems. All of them are worth playing.

I have yet to try AoW: Shadow Magic (even though I think I've bought it twice...)

Trails in the Sky is IMO the best written game I've ever played. The only thing that comes close is Mass Effect and other Bioware games, but it's even better than Bioware. The only problem is that the combat is a tad dull. (Hard to think of why... it's too slow paced or something. It's actually *good* combat, it just moves at a snails pace making it a lot less fun than it should be.)

Rage is a somewhat fun FPS that is literally half-finished and basically ends for no reason right in the middle of the game. I don't outright recommend the game, but what is there *is* good.

Dungeon Siege 1 is a great game, but has a *really* slow start. It gets better and better and better the further you make it. It has pretty lousy character customization (game design philosophy was that you should just pick up a stick, start whacking things, and slowly become a fighter by doing so), but the environments and enemy variety more than make up for it. the other dungeon siege games are less good; forgettable but not terrible. I recommend playing DS1 on hard, but it's up to you and what you're looking for.

Factorio is an amazing game, but it's not listed as on sale ($25)

from what I've played, Gauntlet is better than I expected, but not that awesome either

Braid is worth playing.

Geometry Wars 1 is awesome but maybe not that long lasting (they really need to release Galaxies on Steam)

that's it for games I know anything about

But why is there a free to play game on your wishlist?

I've played Binding of Isaac and Stories: The Path of Destinies and recommend both. Though you shoud probably get Binding of Isaac Rebirth rather than the original.

Was gonna say the same. Take off original and put Rebirth on there. It's only 20% off atm though bringing it down to $12.

Cause...I wish to have it?

I think i kinda just used the function to keep it on some sort of list so I don't forget about it. But it's too late for me to not forget about it.

@GanonsSpirit

edit: you know what? Imma get it anyways! When we played the pvp only game I wanted there to be a PvE mode.

CRYPTARK is pretty good.

Ah never played Shantae for the GBC before. It's made by the same company that did Contra 4 and Double Dragon Neon.
