Eagerly awaiting DOTA 2!

But not so enthusiastic for dawn of war 2 as they don't give so much support to  custom maps like SC2 :/


a dota fan! i am not alone!



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

also here is a list of freeware games

ACTION games

BeGone
Very nice browser multiplayer FPS.

Canary 
Polished and fun (as always with Nitrome’s games) action game where you use drilling laser to clean your way through levels..

Beacon 
Beacon is another 2D platformer created for the recent Ludum Dare 19 competition, where you play as a spaceman who was forced to crash land his ship on an uncharted alien planet. You don’t carry any weapons with you, but the jetpack attached to your suit does help with softening your landing after each jump. -Indiegames

DJManiax
Crazy rhytm game.

Goblin War Machine 
In Goblin War Machine you are in control of a giant instrument of destruction, out to wreck havoc on every village and establishment that it passes through on the route to conquering the entire kingdom. -Indiegames

GRIP 
Insanely hard and yet terribly addicting climbing game.

The Iconoclasts 
Another beautiful platformer from Konjak.

Island Survival
Unique platformer where in each level you have to survive and not drop into a water 30 seconds on constantly melting away ice that’s drifting in the sea.

Mining Truck 2
Arcade physics action game.

Robo Rampage
Side scrolling shooter

SHOC Trooper
Isometric shooter.

Sierra 7

Sprint – King of the Jungle
A collect-’em-up that features single-screen challenges and twenty levels to play through, made by Darkleo of Lionsoft with the help of YoYo Games’ Game Maker engine. The objective here is to collect fifty red gems before making your way to the exit, and if you complete this task before time runs out you’ll be rewarded with an extra medal as well. – Indiegames

Sky Island 
Puzzle platformer based around the concept of rotating levels.

Stream
A time-bending 3D platformer.

Survivor: The Living Dead
Survivor: The Living Dead is essentially the story of a curvaceous young woman named Amber Chaplin and the adversity she faces after her brother is eaten alive by a convenient zombie and she finds herself making a last stand in a two-storey building filled with, for some reason, a fair number of random guns. – Indiegames

Tealy and Orangey 
Tealy & Orangey plays around with the idea of controlling two different characters simultaneously – in this case, two balls oh so cleverly named Tealy & Orangey. Both need to dodge around spikes and bullets and reach their goals. -Indiegames

Z-Type 
Shump where in order to destroy the enemy you have to type in the word displayed next to him.

PUZZLE

Antimatiere 
A 3D puzzle game that features flat 2D objects everywhere you look. A failed experiment had turned all objects and people in the world into wall textures, and you’re the only person who can still move around and save the day somehow. Puzzles are solved by transferring textures from one place to another, although your inventory slot only allows one object to be carried at any time. – Indiegames

Cardboard Box Assembler 
A 3D puzzle platformer that features a clever gimmick: every level is presented as a square cube with six rooms on each side, and you can walk off the edge of a room and appear on another side of the cube. Falling into a hole or climbing past a ceiling also causes a similar effect, and soon you’ll discover that you can easily end up standing on the wall or the ceiling of a room you just passed by moments ago. – Indiegames

Chicken House
Puzzle game inspired by Angry Birds.

I Am An Insane Rogue AI
Action puzzler where you play as rogue arificial intelligence determined to kill all humans in the building.

King’s Guard
King’s Guard is, basically, Bejeweled with defensive and RPG elements. You’re in charge of ensuring that three stereotypical heroes do not fall to the onslaught of an invading army of monstrosities. However, given the nature of the gameplay, you won’t be actively controlling the protoganists. Instead, you’ll be swapping tiles in the city to generate corresponding matches so as to be able to heal each hero. – Indiegames

Save Toshi 
Save Toshi is cute, hilarious and downright playable. Like a 3D version of Tumbledrop, your task is to remove obstacles to help Toshi reach the dancefloor. She can dance, but she can’t walk. How useful! – Indiegames

Sushi Cat 2
Sequel to addorable puzzler

ADVENTURE/EXPLORATION

Balloon Diaspora 
Great surreal adventure game.

Candles 
Creepy 3D FPP adventure game inspired by Amnesia and Penumbra series

Death on Stage
The story is about a young magician named Stanley Biscuit, who discovers on stage that his performance isn’t drawing enough applause from the audience. The theatre manager is quick to point this out to him, but he is also willing to give Stanley a second chance to impress if he dresses up and improves his act a little. – Indiegames

Don’t Take It Personally, Babe, It Just Ain’t Your Story 
Described by Christine Love as “a spiritual sequel of sorts to Digital: A Love Story”, Don’t Take It Personally, Babe, It Just Ain’t Your Story is a visual novel that puts a huge emphasis on the way technology has led us to talk to one another differently, while also tackling the usual issues that visual novels styled in this way delve into. – Indiegames

From Beyond
Less a game and more a five minute study in gleefully malevolent omnipotence, From Beyond reminds us that that the all-powerful being residing outside our understanding of the universe might not be a very nice entity at all. Consisting of five rounds, From Beyond will have you flinging everything from black holes to extraterrestrial vehicles at an unsuspecting earth. It’s short, slightly unnerving, likely to cause more than its fair share of sniggering and apparently was designed over the course of a weekend as part of the Global Game Jam 2011. – Indiegames

I Fought the Law, and the Law One 
Another excellent adventure from Ben Chandler.

Henna Escape
Surrealistic escape game

Improviso 
A two-player acting simulation, where two people act out a story online. Developed by a team at GAMBIT, it plays out a little like a 3D real-time version of Jason Rohrer’s Sleep is Death. – Indiegames

Osada 
Osada is a psychedelic interactive music video by the developers behind Machinarium and the Samorost series. It’s really quite insane, and absolutely brilliant– Indiegames

Rebirth 
Beautifuly disturbing art game

Zee and the Alien Machine
Humorous and well written adventure game.

STRATEGY

American Dream 
Simple, but fun stock trading sim

Black Market 
Space-based sandbix strategy game.

High Tea 
High Tea is a casual trading game where you play as a smuggler trying to meet Britain’s demands for a rare commodity during the early 19th century: tea. There is an abundance of tea in China, but the only goods that the Chinese are interested in trading with is opium. This is where you come in. – Indiegames

Rebuild
In essence, Rebuild is a city-building simulation game, the kind that requires to balance resources and expand your territory. However, unlike its cousins-in-genre, Rebuild doesn’t come with a fertile plot of land to work with. Instead, what you have here is a city devastated by your standard zombie infection. As the leader of a battered group of survivors, you’re going to have to scavenge for food and recruit new people, balance guard duty with excursions into the unknown, deal with rival gangs, stray dogs and the omnipresent of zombie attacks. – Indiegames

RACING

LightSpeeder
Tron-inspired racer

Wroom
A nice Elasto Mania style trick-busting physics racer. You drive a bubble car along a bunch of lines, flipping and rolling all over the place. You can’t die, so it’s great fun to simply flip around the place and attempt to grab all of the stars in each level. – Indiegames
