As other reviewers have said, simply un-check Beyond Light from your DLC list while leaving this option ticked. Worked like a charm for me!

While I'm usually not much a fan of playing games in an incomplete state, ASTRONEER has blown me away with the sheer size and scope of what a player can do. I have high expectations for further development, and can easily see this game being one of the best Co-op building / survival games for many, many years to come.

Don't let the isometric view trick you, Bastion has much more to it than the simple Diablo-esque grind of defeating hordes of enemies for loot and levels. A beatiful world, impeccable soundtrack, and wonderfully woven story makes Bastion one of my all-time favorite game; with enough difficulty modifies to make warranting a second playthrough all the more worthwhile.

One of the most fun free to play Character Action games I've ever played. Unfortunately, it's also turned a horrific grindfest that goes from tiring, to frustrating in very, very little time. A sad development for an otherwise solid game.

Floating Point is a simple, relaxing, beautiful game. The controls, like the concepts, are simple; the left mouse button attaches you to a platform (and can be held down to pull you toward your anchor point) while the right mouse button releases you. To advance to the next level, the player must come into contact with a certain number of red bars placed throughout the level. Players who come into contact with every red bar in a level are treated to the complete path they took throughout the level. The minimalistic art style is backed up by a wonderful ambient soundtrack as well, which is a real treat to listen to.

I tend to play a number of quasi-competative games, and so I would rarely reccomend playing one to help someone relax. Floating Point, however, is an amazing exception to that rule. Floating Point's simple and immersive style is enough to passify any Seething Ragebeast. I cannot reccomend this game enough to those just looking to unwind and relax.
