Now that Keo's 50 copies giveaway is over, it's time for me to actually do what I mentioned in the comments over there, and that mean's we're gonna play a little game - if you want, of course.

Spring Goblin and Coins marathon!

Okay, this is the idea. I'll make at least 2 non-bundled (something alongside of GTA V, Fallout 4, Doom... you know, good stuff) invite only giveaways in May. In order to get invited, you need to post a video of yourself playing Goblin and Coins on YouTube. There are some specific rules so read carefully.

Rules:

  • In order to be invited for the first giveaway, you need to record yourself playing on casual, with voice commentary and face cam, and reach at least level 4-5 (world 4: village, level 5).
  • In order to be invited for a second giveaway, you need to record yourself playing on Old School difficulty with voice commentary (face cam optional) and reach at least level 3-1 (world 3: swamp, level 1).
  • Voice commentary doesn't have to be "pro" or whatever... Just be heard from time to time, mention what's easy and what not...
  • If you're using face cam for 1st gib, it must be you, no facerig or other similar CGI thingy.
  • You need to post the link to your public YouTube video as a reply to OP in this topic until May the 5th this year.
  • YouTube description needs to have "SG: your_user_name" in the first line. Username must match the poster username.
  • Invites are not transferable. I'll list the invited usernames in the giveaway descriptions and ask for a re-roll in the case of the leak.
  • Both giveaways will be for non-bundled games. Which exactly is something I'll decide later based on availability.
  • Both giveaways will be posted by May 10th.
  • Giveaways will be held and gifts/keys delivered even if the number of entries is below 5... or you're the only one.

Requirements:

  • You have Goblin and Coins in order to play and record (I don't need to know if you had it already, won it here, or bought it after reading this - but if you're gonna do that at least use coupons or wait for a discount).
  • You must be a member of SteamGifts in order to enter the giveaways (You can register after this post was published, I don't mind, but respect the rules!)
  • Don't cheat and respect rules of SteamGifts website.

Tips:

  • Play on casual, get to know/learn the game: How to act in certain places, how to deal with enemies, what to visit and what to avoid in the later old school run.
  • Use hardware recording if you can. While game is lightweight and can work even on 2in1 netbooks, Fraps or similar software could reduce your framerate.
  • Talk in English. I don't mind if you have an accent, I'm not a native speaker either.
  • 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.
  • Have fun and laugh. That's the point to have fun together :)

Out of competition example:

(You too can post out of competition videos if you've made a video that doesn't meet the requirements but you still wanna share it because it's funny or for whatever reason!)

Pretty cool, will try to do it maybe, tho i wish it was without facecam as i dont have a webcam but i'll see what i can do.

also, if i do the old school challenge i get invited to both gibs or i have to do both challenges?

Only one, sorry. They have different obstacle - one has face cam, other limited lives. But if there's enough fun videos, I'll add more "side quests" for more giveaways later.

If you do old school with face cam, you get invite for both though!

You can't fool ME, FBI! You will not get my face THAT easily for your death satellite that works with face recognition! What have you done to NB264?! Don't make me break into "The Vault" again to see if you're keeping him there!

As much as this would be a good opportunity to go for completing the entirety of Old School difficulty... Making a video of it? With commentary?! Nuuuuuuuuuuuu! Runs off and hides in his cave.

Aw man, in my silly wish to see how people play it and how they react I completely forgot about the big brother :(

Do I still get to break into "The Vault" though? I'll have my Mission Impossible style gear, a plunger and a pile of empty Tic Tac boxes ready just in case.

Well the idea is to play the old school difficulty, but then I decided to enable casual too, but wanted to add something for it so it wouldn't be much easier than the original quest - so I added face cam for the easy/casual thingy.

People do it every day, maybe someone will. For those who don't want to, there's old school task without face cam requirements.

I also hope people will post some videos that don't fulfill all the requirements as "out of competition" so I can make another third giveaway for them (something small but still unbundled).

D: Will you host this competition again? I do enjoy platformers, but I have something big coming up in May so I won't be able to have time to play

I honestly don't know. I'd like to, but I can't say anything for sure.

Also, this event is open right now you don't have to wait for May (unless you meant you're preparing now for something that will come later and won't have time until that happens, then I understand)

Yay! And it has your username and everything :) I guess we can expect more videos from you then. Btw, are those slowdowns noticeable while playing or just in the video? What recording software has been used?

Comment has been collapsed.

The game was not lagging without recording software. The current version of GeForce Shadowplay forces you to create an account/login and most if not all indie games weren't detected so instead of looking for a workaround Camtasia was used.

Just tested with latest GE and recording manually worked fine. But if you have problems... Camtasia is not really meant for DirectX apps. Try using OBS or Xsplit, should give you better results and are free.
