We’ve already pointed out that Torchlight has been given a 50% off sale on Steam, but if you’re the kind of person who has to have a reason for everything we have you covered as the discount celebrates a new update to the dungeon crawler.

This particular update isn’t your run of the mill change log fodder though, Runic’s action RPG gains Steam Cloud support and 67 achievements with the patch. For those unfamiliar with Cloud, it allows you to save characters and games and access them on any computer with your Steam account.

So there you go, oh and Torchlight is only $10 through the weekend so get on that too.

This might be cliche, but you’d have to be living under a rock if you haven’t heard of Torchlight yet. Runic Games has created an RPG that is on the list of countless websites as not only one of the best indie games but one of the best in general of 2009. With an abundance of appraisal the title currently reigns supreme and its popularity is justified with excellent gameplay. Even our own Geoff Gibson thought of the game as amazing.

Here’s the awesome news: you can get it right now on Steam for 50% off. That means that the game has gone down from its regular $19.99 price tag to $9.99 and by the looks of it, this is an offer you will regret passing up! Feel free to download the demo and give it a shot, but all I have been hearing about this title is that it is addictive and offers a top-notch level of enjoyment.

So get on it right here!

IGN’s download service Direct2Drive is currently selling Trine for a mere $9.95 as part of their 24 Days of Christmas promotion.

The sale is limited to 24 hours, which leaves roughly 18 hours as of this posting for you to still nab it for that price. It generally sells for $19.95.

The game is a favorite over here at DIYgamer and Geoff wrote a great review back in October.

Dejobaan Games just informed us that their skydiving game AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!! — A Reckless Disregard for Gravity has dropped in price (much like in-game elevation) to a mere $9.95. Beats skydiving lessons, and you don’t even have to be strapped to an instructor.

The game has found its way onto both Gamasutra and Metacritic’s 2009 Best Of PC lists. Geoff here also gave it a great review. So if you haven’t gotten a chance to experience this game yet, there’s no better time than now. The press release lies just below.

Today’s Midweek Madness sale on Steam has been revealed as ACE Team’s original action brawler Zeno Clash has been slashed by 66% off the standard price. Set in a punk fantasy world, Clash presents itself to be a first-person fighter emphasizing brutal combat in close quarters.

The game saw a full release back in April of this year and has already received plenty of recognition boasting itself as an IGF Finalist and winning the ModDB Editor’s Choice Award for Best Upcoming Indie Game in 2008. The dev has announced that an ultimate edition of the game will see an Xbox Live Arcade release in March 2010 as well.

Zeno Clash runs $15 standard, but can be picked up for a dime over $5 through Thursday, December 3.

Steam has launched a short Holiday sale that includes the slashing of Hemisphere Games’ award winning indie title Osmos. The game can be picked up for $2, an 80% discount off the standard $10 tag.

The sales are stamped with ‘one day only’ warnings, but the countdown clock provided on the sale page has the batch of discounts ending Friday morning, providing a bit more time to pony up the Washington Twins. By the way, for game developers reference: Discounting your game to the $2 range will at least guarantee my immediate purchase. Honestly, I’m much happier having the arbitrary sum of two bucks going to a good game as opposed to whatever the hell else I was going to do with the amount.

Osmos recently received one of four nominations for the VGA 2009 Best Independent Game, with Flower, conveniently on sale as well. ‘Splosion Man and Trials HD I’m looking at you–where’s that sweet ‘we’re up for an award’ discount?

In the midst of several game discounts on Sony’s Playstation Network, indie standout Flower is available now for half-off. The ‘poetic-adventure’ title developed by ThatGameCompany will run you just $5 through Tuesday, December 2.

Flower is one of those games where the developer’s goal is to whisk the player out of their seat and into an almost dreamlike, wholly unique experience; you’ve seen the type. Taking place in Japan, each level is set in a different flower’s dream as it sits on the window of a bland city apartment. As the player advances through the game, the apartment and city gradually becomes more vibrant and colorful.

Flower debuted back in February of this year for Playstation 3′s online network, with the award winning title recently receiving one of the four nominations for VGA 2009′s Best Indie.

Steam has dished out this week’s Mid-Week Madness deal, offering up Dejobaan Games base jumper Aaaaa! A Reckless Disregard for Gravity for 50% off. It bests the 30% off sale Impulse ran recently, so if you were on the fence then, now seems to be an opportune time to jump.

The title has the player diving off skyscrapers simply for the fun of it and to impress the judges that will determine your score based on style, the stunts you pull on the way down, and whether you stick the landing, or stick all over the pavement.

Aaaaa! can be picked up for only $7.50 now through Thursday, November 19. Check out our review on the title.

Direct2Drive has revealed its deal of the week, offering up KlooniGames’ indie hit Crayon Physics Deluxe for 50% off the standard price. CPD is a 2D physics puzzle/sandbox game where players interact with crayon drawings as if they were real physical objects.

A demo for the title is available via Steam.

Developer Broken Rules has released a new update for their puzzle platformer And Yet It Moves, now available on Impulse. The patch brings the game to v1.01, adding language support for French, German, Spanish and Italian as well as some adjustments to the game’s high score table system.

The game is set in a unique space made of ripped paper, as the player you make your way through levels running, jumping and even rotating the world.

The file is available for download now through Impulse, players are encouraged to check out the updated demo as well.

Additionally, the game is being offered in a discounted bundle through Monday, November 16.
