Fifth set of Steam Greenlight games greenlit: Anodyne, Distance, Organ Trail, and more

Valve has announced the fifth set of games to be promoted from Steam Greenlight to Steam distribution. The service gives everyone with a game and $100 the chance to earn a Steam distribution deal—so far, 76 games have been greenlit, and 16 of those have been completed and released on Steam. The latest batch is below:

• Anodyne
• Distance
• Evoland
• Huntsman:The Orphanage
• Kingdom Rush
• Legends of Dawn
• Organ Trail: Director’s Cut
• Receiver
• Surgeon Simulator 2013
• War Thunder

Surgeon Simulator 2013 will make a fantastic addition to the seemingly endless cavalcade of [MLG] Pro simulation videos. [Update: by "will make a fantastic addition" I clearly meant that someone already made one last month, which is like a year in internet time.]
While these developers should be proud of their accomplishment, Valve doesn’t seem too proud of Greenlight: Gabe Newell recently called the experiment “a bottleneck rather than a way for people to communicate choice.” He wants to go further, doing away with “artificial shelf space scarcity” entirely. We game in exciting times.
