New Humble Indie Bundle Will Blow You Away - UPDATED

[Nimzar]

I already own everything except Swords...

I am VERY disappointed to see the average purchase below $10. Really people? Bastion is AWESOME. Amnesia is AWESOME, Psychonauts is AWESOME. This isn't bottom of the barrel indie shit. This is some of the best that indie developers have to give.

>.<

If I didn't already own most of this bundle that would be 50 dollars that I'd drop.

grr I already own psychonauts and bastion... but damn if I don't wanna buy this grrr.. such sorcery at work here.. maybe I can just gift those two off to someone on steam or something.. hmm...

 

[Kitty4President]

Dangit, I bought LIMBO literally the day before this appeared. :U
I also already own Amnesia and Sword & Sworcery, but I'm still going to get this. Bastion and Psyconaughts for that price is still a bargain!
More importantly, it's for charity!

I'll just give the extra games to my friends. c:

Holy shit...
I... I just... I'm so happy I literally cried after downloading all the games and the soundtracks. Best 30 bucks spent EVER!

To be fair, this is day one of the bundle. They still have two weeks for that average to rise, which it undoubtedly will.

Psychonauts isn't really indie

IIRC, Double Fine now owns the rights exclusively, so I think you could make the argument if you really wanted to.

Just because they now own the rights outright does not make it indie. They created the game and under a publisher. The studio is Indie and they have the rights back to their game but that by no means makes the game an indie game.

Tim Schafer and the Bastion narrator in the same video?

It feels like there should be an award for that.

I was so looking forward to playing some of these games tonight. I made a sizable donation, then waited... No keys or download links came in the email. Tried the key resender, said my email was in the database, still no email came(even checked the spam folders). So I sent them an email with the transaction id, still waiting...

Oh well, no games until tomorrow.

*Edit* After reading their twitter, looks like they are have email problems with their web app.

I fail.... I haven't played any of these games D:

What game should I start first? ((This deal is too good to pass, I DO want to play every game))

 

[NerfedFalcon]

I bought it for Superbrothers, Limbo and the music (already own Amnesia, Psychonauts and Bastion). I still paid $10 for it. Because I always do with HB.

Are you currently constipated? If yes, Amnesia. If no, still Amnesia. You will never find Doom 3 scary every again.

 

[Lopende Paddo]

"i already have all those games... except for that swprd game thingie..."

So pay 2 bucks for Super Brothers Sword and Sworcery than!
you can even pay 1 cent if your really cheap.
whats stopping you?

 

[Rabid Toilet]

I'd be ridiculously excited about this if I didn't already own every single game in the bundle (yes, even Super Brothers).

At this point, it's not even "support these unknown developers and give money to charity" anymore. Now, it's just "here's a ton of stupidly awesome games for an obscenely low price".

Heh, What's even worse is, I game at night mainly....

 

[FunKing]

All great games...too bad i already own all of them. If you don't i highly recommend you grab these.

Might be a stupid question, but can you buy the bundle if you live in the UK? Because the prices are in US dollars and I can't see anywhere to change country or anything.

I did. All the confirmation emails say $10, so I'm not sure exactly what I've paid in real money (about £8, I think) but the transaction was definitely accepted and I've got my games.

Fair enough, thanks very much.

Everyone owes it to themselves to play Psychonauts, it's one of my favourite games of all time. And I must have replayed it half a dozen times or more yet I *still* occasionally find clever little touches and snippets of dialogue I never spotted before. Hell they even covered situations you can only get into by cheating!

Seriously, all 5 are well worth your time though, so it depends on your mood. In rough order of my personal preference:

- If you fancy a platformer with seriously inventive level design and hilarious writing, go Psychonauts
- If you could go for something mind-shatteringly terrifying, go Amnesia
- If you want a colourful, slickly executed action RPG with a really distinctive setting and clever, memorable voice-acting, go Bastion
- If a bleak and darkly funny 2D platformer/puzzler with a wonderful silhouetted art-style appeals, go Limbo
- For a relaxed adventure game with cool pixellated graphics and an evocative soundtrack, go Sword & Sworcery
