Arcana Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 http://www.wolfire.com/humble There is a package of games available here for windows, Mac and Linux by donation. Offerings include World of Goo and Aquaria (which has a remix by Danny B. Basically you donate what money you want and send it either to the developers or to a charity like Child's Play. Check it out and support some indie developers. Quote
Gollgagh Posted May 6, 2010 Posted May 6, 2010 I paid $5 because I'm a cheap fuck, but not cheap enough to do $0 Quote
Arcana Posted May 6, 2010 Author Posted May 6, 2010 Oh by the way there's about 5 days left in this offer so if you're interested in it you might want to jump on it before it goes away. Quote
Arrow Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 I already own World of Goo on Wii, but I couldn't resist this. Dropped $10 for the package. Quote
Necrotic Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 This is awesome! Thanks for the heads up. Also, the 'rap' in the promotional video reminded me of .Or Jon Lajoie. Quote
Zephyr Posted May 7, 2010 Posted May 7, 2010 Already own World of Goo and Gish, I'm not a fan of Horror games, and Lugaru doesn't look like anything too fancy. Aquaria looks awesome, awesome music too, but I think I'll pass this time. Quote
Arrow Posted May 9, 2010 Posted May 9, 2010 For those of you still interested in this, you've only got about 2 days and 3 hours left. If you're an asshole, you can even donate just one cent! But the reason for this post is to inform everyone that they added another game to the list, Samorost 2. Those of you who have already bought the bundle can just use your previous e-mail key to go in and download it post-haste, without needing to donate again. Quote
Necrotic Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 They just announced that four of the six games from the Indie Bundle will be released for free and will be made open-source. (It's in a note at the very top of the webpage in the first post.) I ended up donating $10 even though I already own World of Goo and Gish and those are the two games I'd probably want most out of that bundle anyways. Figure it's going to a good cause and I can see what some of these indie devs are all about. Quote
Arcana Posted May 12, 2010 Author Posted May 12, 2010 As Necrotic said: This bundle has now raised over 1 million dollars in about a week. Aquaria, Gish, Lugaru HD, and Penumbra Overture are planning to go open-source, so if any of you are interested in how these games work it might be a good place to start. Quote
