JadeAuto Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 So there's a third humble bundle going round, check it: http://www.humblebundle.com/ Has: VVVVVVV And Yet It Moves Cogs Crayon Physics Deluxe Hammerflight Of those, I owned none of them, so I now own them. Love how you can get a steam key to attach it to your steam account. Discuss? Quote
kitty Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Was about to ask about steam keys. I'll probably grab this for $5 just for VVVVVV. Quote
Gario Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I'm not normally into purchasing indy games, for some reason (which is weird since I actually love these types of games). I bought this, though - always wondered what VVVVVV was, so I suppose there's no better time to find out Quote
Murmeli Walan Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Haven't played (or even heard of) the other games, but I'm in love with VVVVVV. And this is a new 2.0 release that has a level editor and a stage made by Minecraft creator Notch, too. Too bad this bundle had to come out right before Otakon, so I won't be paying as much as I have past bundles, but I'm still gonna pay above the average and show my support. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I tried to get this and the paypal button didn't work -- anyone have this issue? o_o Quote
JadeAuto Posted July 27, 2011 Author Posted July 27, 2011 I tried to get this and the paypal button didn't work -- anyone have this issue? o_o I ignore paypal and use amazon payment... since I trust Amazon more than Paypal. Quote
linkspast Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 This is really cool, I like how you can decide how to break up how the money is divided. Quote
SenPi Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I always pay $13.37 for the Humble Bundles. Its just more.... 1337 that way Quote
Level 99 Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Try putting in less than a dollar (for kicks, I put in a penny). It is both hilarious and heartbreaking. And in all honesty, the bundle is worth VVVVVV alone. And Yet It Moves is also really neat. Quote
Unstable Hamster Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 I have 4 of the 5 games in this bundle pack. Still donating, and gonna buy a few gift packs for my friends. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted July 27, 2011 Posted July 27, 2011 Try putting in less than a dollar (for kicks, I put in a penny). It is both hilarious and heartbreaking. Aw what, they want to give the whole penny to the developers? Are they trying to raise money for the developers or for charity? EDIT: Ok, I got the pack, and I finished Vvvvv already in 2;30 hours or so. I wanted to ask how is everyone else splitting up their donations? Are you giving more to the developers, or are you giving only to the charity? Or a split of both? I thought since it was for charity that most of the cash should go to charity, it only made sense that way. xD Quote
Brandon Strader Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Bumping this because they've added maybe 5 more games to the bundle, people who donated enough are getting the games retro-actively too! Including Braid! Special note: Go to your unique humble URL they emailed to you.. There you will find new download links and a Steam key, if you paid enough to begin with edit2: 6 games, not 5 edit3: Started up Revenge of the Titans and went afk with my wireless headphones to cook dinner... Wondered why I suddenly started to feel sickly ill, and later realized that the game was pumpin' the music from A Clockwork Orange! Quote
yangfeili Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 I always give it all to the developers. There's plenty of people giving money to plenty of charities out there in world. Indie game developers deserve some attention. Quote
Eino Keskitalo Posted August 4, 2011 Posted August 4, 2011 Nice! Steel Storm was a nice add earlier, I'm probably looking forward to play it more than the original five games (although all are interesting). But getting the bundle #2 games too, that's pretty cool. Already bought it earlier for a bit more than the Linux average. I think I directed a bit over dollar to Child's Play and a bit over dollar as a tip to Wolfire, who put the bundles together, but don't have a game from themselves in this time around, so that's the only way they're getting any money (back) from this. Re: charity, I read the Wikipedia page earlier, and the bundles are about selling indie games, the charity thing is more of a nice opportunity to raise some money to them as well. It's definitely cool that you can give most or all the money to them though. I think the bundles together have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars already for the charities. --Eino Quote
Inferno232 Posted August 5, 2011 Posted August 5, 2011 The Humble "INDY" Bundle?! A bundle of Indiana Jones'? My own Harrison Ford?! SWEET. Humor aside, I got the 2nd bundle last year and was NOT disappointed. Ended up getting 10 games for 5-10 bucks. (At the time, all I had to spend, digital wise.) Thinking of getting this one, but I am DEFINITELY paying more than last time. Quote
Unstable Hamster Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 Hey uh, another game is in it. It's zombie atom smasher, I already owned it, yet haven't played it. My brother has and said he really likes it. So yea. Chock one more up for HIB. Those guy know how to make people happy. The past indie bundles never got this big. Quote
Ramaniscence Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 They keep adding games and, as far as I've noticed, I can't get them on Steam after I've already redeemed my code? Edit: JK I just have to go to them all individually on Steam and add them EXCEPT Cortex Command, it seems Quote
HoopyFrood Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 Cortex command is still in beta AFAIK. It should be added when it comes out. Quote
ZealPath Posted August 6, 2011 Posted August 6, 2011 These bundles are the gift that keeps on giving, I already had #1 and #2 but to have not one but two additional games added to #3 is pretty cool! As usual I already had about half the games but it's always nice to give a little bit more to the developers. Quote
DragonAvenger Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 See you soon! The Humble Indie Bundle 3 was our greatest bundle yet, with 372,353 bundles sold for a total of $2,167,670.22. Crazy, and awesome. I'm on the last dude I need to save in VVVVVV. Have died like 850 times (I'm pretty terrible at these sorts of games too). Loving it so far. Quote
Brandon Strader Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 Yeah VVVVVVVVVV was pretty sweet but short! Got pretty challenging pretty quickly. I doubt my mom will be able to play it. She struggled on level 1 of Braid. Quote
Gario Posted August 10, 2011 Posted August 10, 2011 ... well shit, the other games look great, but I can't DL them (all the links in my URL are dead ). Seems they closed shop before I got wind of it. Why am I always late to the party when it comes to these things? *grumble* Oh well, I paid for the five games, so I suppose I shouldn't complain about missing out on the other seven. Quote
Eino Keskitalo Posted August 11, 2011 Posted August 11, 2011 If you paid for the games before the bundle #2 games became available, you should be entitled to them. They should be downloadable indefinitely (I haven't even downloaded my Frozenbyte bundle games yet). Same goes for the two bonus games. Sounds like you have some sort of an error, you should message their support. --Eino Quote
Gario Posted August 15, 2011 Posted August 15, 2011 Huh, must've been a temporary broken link, there. Wouldn't checked again if you didn't tell me that, though, so thanks. Awesome Quote
