It’s a fact that many Steam users don’t check or even notice most Greenlight additions. There are simply too many, making it rather time-consuming. Hoping to alleviate this problem somewhat, I bring you The Greenlight Groove, featuring my recommendations from the past week!
Keep in mind that those listed below are by no means the only new arrivals, simply those I gave my ‘yes’ vote. With that in mind, would you kindly help make sure none end up as a potential Stuck In Greenlight Limbo candidate, by voting? Oh and do provide their creators with feedback. I’m sure they’ll appreciate anything, as long as it’s expressed properly (please, be nice).
Stikbold! (@Stikbold)

By word, by book the tales of the brave and mighty are told in reverie. Every warrior is remembered, their stories spreading like a magician’s flame. Soon, everyone who is anyone knows the warrior. Even his origins is not kept secret. Where he was born and who is was born from, the methods of training and the code of his conduct! But! What happens after the story?

A wide world with vast forests, mires and mountains to roam and watercourses to row is randomly and procedurally generated – and you can live off the land and explore it on very detailed level. Track animals, set traps, hunt with bows and spears, tan hides, go fishing, pick berries, cook food, sleep in a temporary shelter or build a log cottage, trade with the villagers, craft items, interact with cultures near and far, etc. The game is completely open-ended and you decide whether you wish to lead a life of a fisherman, a hermit searching for the peace, a brave adventurer, a rough hunter, a trapper or a tradesman.
