Welcome to

2nd Goblin and Coins Summer marathon! (ended!)


A little bit of history for newcomers

Hello! I've created a little retro platformer game and with the help of friendly SG community managed to polish it and release it on Steam back in late 2016. Since then, I've held a few of these "marathon" events in order for all of us to have fun and at the same time to give back to SG members who supported the game by giving them the chance to win some nice prizes.

You can check out spring (3 participants, won DE: Mankind Devided, Dishonored 2 and DOOM), summer (7 participants won Quantum Break, Dark Souls III, Rise of Tomb Raider , TWD: A New Frontier and many other nice games), Back2School (17 participants, won Dishonored 2, CoD: Advanced Warfare, Cuphead, Life is Strange: Before the Storm and so on), Winter (11 participants; won Slime Rancher, beat Cop, Finding paradize...) and 2nd Spring marathon (110+ participants, won Mortal Kombat X, DEMD, CoD Ghosts...) events if you want more info, to read previous hints, tips, and so on.


Introduction

It's hot and there's a world cup playing right now so let's keep it simple. There's going to be several tasks and one train. Do ANY of the tasks and you'll get invited on board.


Gifts in the train

Train entry point Giveaways
FFA / Public Homefront, Outlast, Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island, Shadows: Price for our sins, Space legends, Living legends: The Froyen Fear, Defend the Highlands Civ III Sacra Terra AI War 3030 Death war redux.
Solve a jigidi Acceleration of SUGURI 2, Dark Souls III (JP), Splasher (CN, CIS).
Do 1 or more out of 3 tasks Yakuza 0 preorder, Just Cause 3 XL, Dirt Rally, RAGE, COD Ghosts, Prey (Bethesda), Cook Serve Delicious 2

Requirements

  • In order to participate you have to be a nice and well behaved member of SteamGifts community.
  • You need a free Steam account which you already have otherwise you wouldn't be a member of the community here.
  • And you need to have the game called Goblin and Coins in order to be able to perform certain tasks required in order to be invited to some of the giveaways.

Tips

  • Play on casual, it's easier.
  • Use a quality keyboard or a wired gamepad. Some netbook keyboards will ruin your experience, sadly.
  • You can rebind the keys in settings menu.
  • Feel free to read community guides on Steam.
  • If you get discouraged, feel free to watch other players and see how they dealt with something.
  • Ask, and someone might answer. There are tips&tricks for all the enemies and bosses, just need to find them.
  • If you already have an achievement that's needed - even better!
  • Check the comments, there might be hidden freebie giveaways.
  • Have fun and laugh. That's the point to have fun together :)

Rules

  • In order to be invited you have to provide what is asked and in the exact way that was explained in task description. This usually means links to your achievements page and artwork/video.
  • Don't cheat. I'll check all applications. Don't leak the giveaway links, you'll be suspended.
  • All submissions must be posted into this thread by the end of July 20th, 2018, CEST (GMT+2). I might start inviting people early or not.

hahaha was really challenging.
The last part of the game was unfair anyway ... those thorns on the ceiling made me very angry.

Oh, the trick is in waiting for the right moment. Then it just opens to you. Entire game is based around "pay attention, see how it works, then it's easy" concept. Rushing just gets you killed.

Well, it all started back in the day when JadeFalcon decided he's gonna look for better onion rings, but at that time you could get 2 rings for a level, but we called levels premium and thanked people for skyrim. also you could give dota2 beta or minecraft away, because that was in the first year the group transitioned to a website and things were still sort of steamy. anyway, ....

It was, but spread outside to reddit and imgur and apparently, steam too. We're not isolated here, you know. People come and go as you said yourself (including "go to other websites too").

Fortix era wasn't secret. It had one rule - you can't buy fortix, you need to win fortix, and then you give away fortix. It was fun.

Sad to hear bad keyboards aren't good for the experience, I guess this is another game I'll have to put in my waiting for PC upgrades list

Well doesn't have to be, but most people who had issues had tried playing on membrane keyboard / laptops. Usually if you have a mechanical keyboard or a good wired gamepad (the guy who holds a world record under 18 minutes recommends iBuffalo - I've had a great experience with Logitech F310) it's a completely different experience.

Completed using a wireless xbox 360 controller which worked great. A fairly cheap option if you pick up a used controller and order the receiver online.

Please remove the link from your message. Leaking answers and links is against the rules. In my 7 years on this website I've never seen such behavior. You could have tried contacting me privately on steam or in some old giveaway... But this... I have no comment.
