As a special launch day promotion – Publishers Nyu Media have very kindly offered to give away 1000 – yes, one THOUSAND – copies of Eryi’s Action absolutely free, and getting your hands on one really couldn’t be simpler – although you’re going to have to all work together if the codes are to be made available!
So what do you have to do then? Simple – just vote for, and favourite, Eryi’s Action on Steam Greenlight – RIGHT HERE – and then your work is done! Now just sit back and relax, or alternatively, TELL ALL YOUR FRIENDS to do the same, thereby substantially increasing your chances of earning yourself and your peers some free games!
If, over the next seven days, Eryi’s Action gains 1000 votes and favourites, Nyu Media will release 1000 codes to us to share with you via our Facebook and Twitter pages. If you want one, you’ll have to keep an eye on our pages for updates as they’ll be distributed on a first come first serve basis. You really can’t say fairer than that can you!
We will, of course, update you on Eryi’s progress. Good luck everyone!

Basically, there will be a giveaway of 1000 copies for a Steam indie game if the game itself gets 1000 votes and favourites on Steam; the game being a platformer with apparent difficulty "everything kills you from every direction," as can be seen from the video below.
The game is NOT YET AVAILABLE ON STEAM. It is currently in Steam's Greenlight system. However, by around Dec 12, if there are 1000 favourites and likes for the game, 1000 keys will be released.
The keys will appear here:

Even if you hate this, please vote. I am sure a lot of people would like a free copy, me included.

There also seemed to be some bullet hell segments. Looks like fun.
