It's an adventure game I believe one of us forumites actually worked on. My memory may just be playing tricks on me again though, so don't quote me on that.

In 1867, ASB was founded by a mysterious criminal figure. It was a private corporation and its sole purpose was global domination. Its intentions were masked to the public by the legitimate packaging business it had as a front. Another mysterious figure, rich, powerful and clever enough to deduce that ASB was behind the recent crime wave founded WEC, a corporation whose sole task was to prevent the ASB from achieving their goal. Since then, an invisible war was fought between these two private corporations. Over the years, WEC had been slowly disrupting the ASB's operations and preventing their plans from being materialised. After destroying most of the ASB's assets, WEC sent their best Agent to the heavily guarded ASB Base in order to destroy both it and what was left of the ASB once and for all. Private Infiltrator tells the story of what happened in that mission.
Pay at least a dollar for the Desura key and a Steam key if the game gets greenlit on Steam.
Checking my emails was the first thing I did when I got back and, since that's how I learn about the latest deals, I was JUST about to post about it when I discovered you'd beaten me to it.
Pitman is a turn-based Rogue-like in boardgame style. Everything you desire is inside the randomized dungeons: Dwarfs, trolls, golems, treasures, potions, magic, hammer, bow, even more weapons, ... and don't forget the monster moles and pretzels!

KAG is a cooperative war game played with up to 32 players. Play as Knight, Archer or Builder in a large medieval 2D world with physics allowing the construction (and destruction!) of medieval fortresses. KAG blends the creative aspects of Minecraft, the medieval strategy of Age of Empires 2, with fast class-based team-driven gameplay of Team Fortress 2, sprinkled with the extreme fun from the teams previous game Soldat.
Sounds pretty interesting when they put it like that.
EDIT: I’m a bit surprised that the previous game Soldat isn’t a beat the average bonus. That’s usually the case, and I doubt it’s a big seller on its own, since I’ve never heard of it before.

Soulcaster, Escape Goat, Soulcaster II Original Sound Version, Soulcaster - Merchant's Legendary Arrangements
Soulcaster combines elements of both dungeon crawling and tower defense to create a new type of action-strategy-RPG.
Rather than directly attacking foes, you summon three different ancient warriors to fight for you. Each has unique combat abilities, so placement and tactics are key!
Discover secrets, collect treasure and buy powerful upgrades for your allies. Become the Soulcaster and restore peace to the land!
I've had Puzzle Goat since I bought it from IndieGameStand, but I have yet to play it.
Pushcat is a retro-styled arcade game that combines classic 80's dig-and-push mechanics with elements of a Match-3 resulting in an original, fast-paced mix of puzzle and action gameplay.
Beat the average (currently $1.31) to get some Wallpapers. Woo.
I like match-3s about as much as I like tower defenses, but the gameplay video of this one actually made me slightly interested. Not so interested that I'd consider buying it if I didn't already have an indiegamestand account mind.

Survivor Squad is a Strategy Action game where you control a Squad of up to four survivors and guide them through a highly randomized world looking for supplies to aid you on your journey.
Beat the average (currently $1.67) to get a bonus game, Thank You!
Apparently the bonus game is only a prototype mini-game. Probably doesn't do much to raise the average, but it's not exactly the worst bonus yet either.
This game is not about fireworks on the screen every time you click your mouse. It's about unique puzzles and strategy mechanics that you won't see anywhere else. DROD RPG combines the puzzling elements of DROD with the RPG fare of player stats, one-on-one monster duels, items, custom power-ups and treasure. This is not your typical RPG, and it's not a roguelike. It's a resource management game with RPG trappings.
Beat the average (currently $1.91) to get a bonus game (DROD: Gunthro and the Epic Blunder), the Deadly Music of Death OST (Volumes 1 & 2) and the DROD RPG OST (with Exclusive Bonus Tracks).
The bonus game comes with a Desura key. It's not mentioned anywhere that I can tell, but I noticed it after buying the game and checking my game wallet. And by the way, these games were also in the Indie Gala Summer Dream bundle.

I'm not normally a fan of FPAs, but what the hell, it's only a quid.
Looks interesting. I'm not FPAs either, but I'll give the demo on Desura a try. There was actually a Kickstarter for this game. They made it well past their $5000 goal, despite having a really shitty pitch video.
On another note, it's nice to see so many previous deals among the 100 games that got greenlit on Steam today. I recognize Bridge It, Constant C (was it a deal or was there just a lot of discussion on their forums?), Escape Goat, The Cat Lady... Maybe not so many after all. Knytt Underground would have been perfect, but I don't think it made it through the suggestion phase.
Elliot Quest is an adventure / exploration Zelda style game. Defeat all 4 Elements Guardians and acquire their powers. Explore Urule Island in search for treasures and artifacts, earn money and experience by defeating enemies.

I've had Puzzle Goat since I bought it from IndieGameStand, but I have yet to play it.
Problem was, it had the words 'tower defence', and that automatically makes me not care. That's my excuse, anyway.
...wait, that's not right. Hang on, lemme try again...
No, that's not it...
No...
...
...hang on, let me check the Steam Greenlight page.
There we go.
...it's not a very original game name, was my point there.
And since the name is so spectacularly unhelpful, here's a screenshot:
It's an interactive audio tower defence game. So that's me out again.

Having watched the gameplay videos I think this one looks pretty cool. I'm going to check out the demo.
