"N++ (NPLUSPLUS)" is on sale at 50% off! [:)] Sale ends February 25th! Outstanding Action-Platformer...from the developers: "N++ is a fast-paced, momentum-based platformer about darting around obstacles, narrowly evading enemies and collecting gold in a beautiful minimalist landscape. It’s the first N game on PC since 2004 and we’ve spent those 12 years perfecting the platformer.
N++ is all about using your momentum to complete levels and get high scores, but in this sci-fi world, there’s a slew of inadvertently homicidal enemy robots trying to prevent you from completing your goal.
Through the hand-crafted (NOT procedurally generated) levels, you’ll experience platforming at its most intense. Using only your fluid movement, you need to ‘solve’ each level and get to the exit."

I have Styx but have not tried it yet. I found an excellent sneaking stealth game that's excellent, it's called Shadow Tactics. Tons of help, tooltips, options, and gameplay is excellent. My iPad won't do a link so you have to look it up on Steam. It works perfect with a gamepad.

Purchased Styx, for 5,99 Euros it is not much of a loss when it turns out to be not that good. A new Styx (Shards of Darkness) will be released 14th March.
I also own the game you mention, Shadow Tactics: Blade of the Shogun, and I absolutely like it!

Same ones come up as you would expect. Sometimes a variation.
But it is a fun game. Played it with my 8 year old and his mom got mad at us.
"Don't tell him about drugs..he doesn't know what they are.."
he answered most of the calls really well. Especially the 'dumb' one about someone calling to report a car parked in his spot.
