IndieDB is currently giving away 20 free Steam keys for this small platformer game. It's a standalone expansion to a game called Hot Guns. I personally never heard of it before this contest, but, judging from the trailer, it appears to have an interesting pace. Also, there aren't many user Steam reviews, but almost all of them are positive experiences.

I bought Hot Guns when it was released for Linux (in December I think). It's a good game, but very challenging, and I haven't gotten very far. What's most interesting about it is the weight mechanics: If you don't carry any guns, you run fast and jump far, but if you pick up one or two weapons, you're gradually slowed down. The levels are designed in a way that it isn't always a good idea, or even possible, to carry guns.

I'm not surprised the games have positive user reviews, but I haven't played the standalone game yet, since I didn't realize it had appeared in my Steam library until last week.
