Pay What You Want For Crayon Physics Deluxe
To celebrate the one year anniversary of its release, the creator of Crayon Physics Deluxe, Petri Purho, is giving you a gift: pay whatever you want for the PC version of the game from now until January 15th. You'll have to wrap it yourself, though.
Inspired by a similar promotion last year for World of Goo (and more recently Immortal Defense), Purho is counting on the gamers not to rip him off completely. Remember that PayPal has to charge the guy something, so all those tightwads paying a penny will end up costing the guy a few cents. The game regularly goes for $19.95, but if you can't commit a couple quarters without checking out the game first, there's a demo available.
Crayon Physics Deluxe is a puzzle/platformer where you draw shapes and objects in order to interact with the environment. From what I've played, the game is a bit... relaxing. Like a zen garden, except you can draw penises all over the place without any Buddhists judging you. The game was the Grand Prize winner of the Independent Games Festival in 2008, beating out future favorites like Audiosurf and World of Goo. Note that the "Pay what you want" promotion only applies to purchases from the game's website; the Steam and other digital download versions are still regularly priced. Similarly the price of the iPhone version ($4.99) is unaffected.

This is such a fun, relaxing game! I got it as part of the indie pack on Steam that went on sale a little while back. It's easily worth 5 bucks on its own. Buy this game if you like to be creative and seek childlike glee.
