Steam Greenlight posted yesterday that they have approved an unprecedented 100 titles for funding and development, adding up the total list of Greenlit titles to 260. They cite this as a sign that they are improving the Greenlight process, and hope to bring in more developers in the near future.
I’ve collated a list of the 100 titles below, but among the most noteworthy games approved were Armikrog, C-Wars, Knytt Underground, Mutant Mudds, Paranautical Activity, Road Redemption, Shadow of the Eternals, Shantae: Risky's Revenge, Soul Saga, and Teslagrad. Many of these titles have been waiting for Greenlighting for months, and resorted to crowdfunding and publishing on other platforms. Telsagrad is already scheduled as a Wii U release, making this approval somewhat belated.
The two titles that stand out the most are Paranautical Activity and Shadow of the Eternals. Precursor Games has finally secured the funding to work on their game after two unsuccessful runs at Kickstarter. Paranautical Activity was earlier rejected by Steam for an issue stemming from a possible publishing agreement with Adult Swim Games.
Renegade Kid’s Jools Watsham, who made Mutant Mudds, expressed frustration with the Greenlight process last March in a blog post. As he notes on a tweet yesterday, their game was on Greenlight for over a year before finally getting approved.
Wow, Mutant Mudds was on Steam Greenlight for 369 days. Plus, we submitted a month or two prior to Greenlight. It has been a long road! 🙂

We congratulate all the developers for getting their games and apps approved and hope this is an honestly good step forward for Steam and Greenlight.
Note: Some approved Steam Greenlight titles are not games, but for the sake of completion, they’re all listed here for your perusal.
