Free Game of the Week: Knytt Classic
A remake of one of the great early indie games is available for free. To call Knytt Classic the best deal of the week is somehow an understatement. Celebrate the 20th anniversary of the indie freeware classic, rebuilt for modern machines! Explore a maze-like planet as the Knytt, a peaceful being abducted by aliens, find your missing ship parts, and get back home in this zen-like atmospheric platformer." (Steam)
