Tobe's Vertical Adventure
Cost: 5 USD, currently on sale for 4.5 USD

http://store.steampowered.com/app/105700/What is it? A co-op platformer focused on traversing down a level, reaching the bottom and then climbing back up a remodeled version of the same level in a time limit while collecting cash and saving adorable critters. The action feels perhaps a little sluggish to me, but for the most part it's been an enjoyable play and I haven't even gotten to test the co-op.
Tuper Tario Tros.
Cost: Free browser game
Link:
http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/522276What is it? Mario and Tetris combined. Your job is to avoid being squashed by the ever scrolling screen while maneuvering Mario through the level, however there are obstacles Mario can't cross at which point you will need to hit space to switch to Tetris mode, where you can build bridges, remove blocks by forming lines or squash Goomba's for points.

A free to play anime MMO with a final fantasy tactics style job system, you are able to unlock classes by leveling your base and job levels up to certain points, and are able to switch classes easily to fit the role you're trying to fill.

http://www.proun-game.com/What is it? A fast-paced abstract racer that is absolutely beautiful and allows you to compete against ghosts of yourself as well as with players online for best speed.

Wanderlust: Rebirth
Cost: 10 USD
Link:
http://www.wanderlustgame.com/What is it? an online, fantasy, 4 player party-based arcade-action rpg game made with Game Maker. The graphics are not the most appealing I've seen, though the sprite work is a bit better than the drawings IMO. There are 4 classes and you get to hack and slash your way through the game similar to the arcade action rpg's of yore. A free demo is available to test the first bits of the game, I've not purchased it as of yet, still playing the free stuff and deciding.
Celestial Mechanica
Cost: 5 USD
Link:
http://www.celestialmechanica.com/ (The trailer can be found here)
What is it? It's a puzzle platformer metroidvania style game and it's pretty well done for 5 bux. The gba-like graphics and very appealing, as is the music, the platforming is challenging (I died 323 times while completing the roughly 2.5 hour game. yes, it tells you how many times you died when you beat it.)
Realm of the Mad God
Cost: free
Link:
http://www.realmofthemadgod.com/What is it? An 8bit styled online action shooting rpg. You work together with people online to kill hordes of minions and defeat the mad god Oryx and the lesser gods of the realm. The more you play the more classes you unlock, game play is simple and there's certainly a lot to kill. I've not had much time to invest in this yet because i was busy beating Celestial Mechanica
