VGCulture - Indie Games Bought during Steam Deals

Hey everyone!  Hopefully all of you had a pleasant holiday weekend.  Aside spending some time with friends and family, I got onto steam and got some indie games in pursuit of learning more on how I could develop indie games as well.  Here is the list and short comments to each:
-Monday Night Combat (I seriously need to play this more to have a real opinion)

-Bullet Candy (Hard, quirky, but somewhat entertaining.  I need to play this more as well)

-Foreign Legion: Buckets of Blood (Had my eye on this one since its release.  I like it, but it's difficult)

-Gravitron 2 (Okay, so it's a mix between defender and lander.  Controls are annoying, graphics are nice)

-Space Giraffe (It's kinda like tempest.  I'm not sure if I really like the game, it's very disorganized in graphics)

-Super Laser Racer (I didn't plan on buying it, but it came with the pack.  Controls are annoying)

-Super Meat Boy (This is probably my favorite indie game I bought next to VVVVVV)

-Caster (Interesting gameplay, terrible graphics)

-Recettear (I played the Japanese Demo a long time ago, I'm glad it was brought over.  Interesting game)

-VVVVVV (Frustratingly fun with tons of challenges and awesome music.)

Sorry I have to keep it so short today, I'm getting a bit of a break this week so I can finally work on other projects as well as posts on this blog.  I might want to do a GameOn event next week based on indie games.  I also would like to do a post on difficult games and a Retroview on Super Smash Bros. Melee this week.  Thanks for stopping by, more to come very soon.
