Let's see…
Team Fortress 2—hurry up with that Pyro/Jungle/whatever update Valve! But also take your time to make sure it's well-tested and bug free. Yes, I know those are mutually exclusive. :P

Stellaris—picked it up just before Utopia launched. Enjoying it, though there are definitely improvements that could be made (and which Paradox will get to, I'm sure).

Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun—a fantastic real-time tactics game I discovered from here, and whose Linux demo sealed the deal (and this is my first experience with the genre, I don't have any rose-tinted childhood memories of similar games; this one sold me on its own merits). Currently replaying all the missions to go for badges, some of which drastically change the play style (like "don't shoot anyone with the character whose main feature is the ability to shoot people at long range" ).

With WINE:
Dodge That Anvil!—a very polished and humorous indie game from 2006 with a unique mechanic of dodging things falling from the sky targeted at your head, a game I played with my little brothers just before I moved away to college and have a lot of fond memories of. It's Windows-only, not on Steam (yet my CD key still works!), and is old and obscure enough not to have a single Let's Play of it on YouTube…until I started posting one earlier this year. I actually just finished the main story mode last week, and got a message a few days later from the original developer (!) saying he's a big fan of Let's Plays and always hoped someone would do one for DTA, and that he really enjoyed mine (!!). Really made my day.

Wow. That Specter seems terrifying. Can waltz up to your soldier in an un-hittable form, then render them unconscious and make an allied clone of them in one turn? That seems ridiculously dangerous. Better stay out of their range, I guess. :O

Well, given how popular Dota and CCGs are I'm sure this'll make lots of people very happy.

I'm not one of them as neither interest me, but at least it shows Valve haven't completely forgotten how to make games, right? :(

Quoting: razing32

Quoting: PhiladelphusThat's pretty cool. I like that art style, and I have wondered in the past why no one has done an airport management simulation game yet.

Now if someone could just remake Sim Farm from my childhood I'd be happy. :)

I'd prefer Sim Ant to be honest. :P

Another game from my childhood! I've love that too. :)

I just mentioned Sim Farm because someone at least already tried to do something like Sim Ant, even if the Kickstarter (which I backed) didn't succeed.

A new base defense mission, especially one actually taking place in the Avenger, could be pretty cool.

OK, updated mine. :)

Any game with such a nice map of the island of Hawaiʻi where I live instantly has my attention, at least. :) (Though the absence of the largest city on the island is a bit puzzling… )

This kinda reminds me of OpenTTD in theme, except not grid-based. I play that with a friend from time to time, so I'll have to keep an eye on this.

Seems like Focus is their version of ammo. Or actually, it reminds me of the Engineer from Torchlight II with his charge mechanic, where charges can be consumed to make various skills stronger.

That definitely does look like quite an interesting mission!
