Title: Humble Bundle
Post by: TimHortonsClock on December 14, 2011, 05:05:09 AM
What is the Humble Bundle?
The humble bundle (http://www.humblebundle.com/) is a small collection of indie games where you can pay any price you set (Yes, you can pay 0.01 USD, but there's usually an incentive to beat the average), and said games lack any sort of copy protection. The main reason why this sort of thing exists is mainly to allow gamers to donate to charity, and get rewarded with some rather interesting games.  The games listed in the bundle are compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux, though the Steam versions may not support Mac OS X.

Games currently available on Humble Bundle 4
Super Meat Boy (That one tough-as-nails platformer... Now with more Headcrab... And Minecraft!)
Jamestown (A 2d shoot-em-up not unlike those incredibly difficult Japanese top-down shooters)
Shank  (2d beat-em-up)
NightSky
Bit.Trip Runner
And to those who beat the average...
Gratuitous Space Battles
Cave Story

Also, i may bump this thread should the next bundle appear, just to avoid duplicate threads.

Picked it ip. I actually am really impressed by the games here, especially Janestown, which is surprisingly good.

other bundles around
Little Big Bunch (http://www.getgamesgo.com/little-big-bunch)
The minimum can literally be $0 but if it's between 0.01 and 1.49 it automatically goes to $1.50 (they blame fees).

Indie Royale Xmas Bundle (http://www.indieroyale.com/)
Have to pay the average or pay above to lower the price for all

This is a really good humble bundle, especially since I want most of those games. The only one I have are BitTripRunner (fun) and GSB (boring).

You don't need to put discussion on the end of a thread title really. It's implied, since this is a discussion forum.

I bought this as a bit of a pre-end of finals gift for myself. I shall fondly regard them in my steam list and not install them until after finals are over.

Shit I need to stop buying so many games I haven't played yet.

The 3rd Bundle is back from the grave, so if you missed it, just pay more than the average for Humble Bundle 4.
