The Humble Bundle!

[Blue Shoe 2]

(Note: I couldn't find any threads about it, so I made one. I apologize if there's already a thread)

Here's the link. (http://www.humblebundle.com/)



Every game in it was worth it. You pay whatever you can, whether it's a penny, a dollar, a hundred dollars, etc.

Additionally, you can choose how the money is distributed, whether you want to donate to Child's Play Charity with your cash, or just pay off the devs.
If you pay a dollar or more, you get a steam code so you can get the games via steam as well.

The games are great, and I see no reason why to get it.

[Dudebro]

I'm not sure I get it. I can donate a penny per game and get them all except Bastion?

[Blue Shoe 2]

You could, if you're heartless. But for less then a dollar, you don't get it via steam.You get a unique URL in which you can download it for years to come.

[Dudebro]

I'm not heartless I'm just skeptical and a noob. This is a good deal and I remember hearing something about this before, how many times have they done this?

[Mareeps]

Well I picked it up and gave what i could, since i don't have much on me.

[bearhawk72]

I wish they just offered it through Steam...I have $1.12 sitting in my wallet they could have had

[Dudebro]

So if I spend more than a buck or so they give me a steam key or four?

Btw what's so good about Limbo? I've heard lots of people saying it's great but from watching videos there's nothing cool besides the artwork.

Amnesia looks scary, doubt I can even play it. Not that I'd be terrified but I don't like tense helpless games that much.

[Mareeps]

If I can get a Steam key, that means I can download the games onto the new computer I plan on getting?

[Kugyince]

Notch, creator of Minecraft donated over $6,500 for his copies.

[Dudebro]

So there is a topic for these already. Bump-
https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly

6 bucks for 8 games. Some nice looking strategy games and some other interesting oddballs. All Steam only.

[bearhawk72]

I have Blood Bowl, though the Chaos Edition. Pretty sure it's the same game, Chaos Edition just has more teams.

Pretty good game, I like it. Don't let the football thing steer you away, it's more of a strategy game with a football cover.

[Dudebro]

Hey I enjoy football video games even though I don't like it as a sport really. I used to play mutant league!

[bearhawk72]

Hey I enjoy football video games even though I don't like it as a sport really. I used to play mutant league!
Well I meant it's football in so far as you try to score TD's and keep the other team from scoring. That is where the football part stops.

-There is no play calling. You can align your team before the kickoff but that is it.
-There are no real football rules
-Incomplete passes count as a turnover, and the ball sits where it landed until someone picks it up.
-Fumbles count as a turnover, again ball stays where it is until someone picks it up.
-When your turn ends and you have the ball, you keep it. The other team then tries to take it from you by making you fumble it by attacking the ball carrier(or trying to set up a trap it is a strategy game afterall)

There are RPG elements as well. After games players can gain experience and can be leveled to increase their stats and gain new skills.

From what I read Chaos and Legendary editions are compatible so both can play against each other.

If anyone has any questions about it I can try to answer them.

[Dudebro]

Cool to hear we can play together with different versions. More people should buy this bundle so we can make a RU league.

[Dudebro]

Batman City and Asylum, Fear 1 and 2, Scribblenauts and LOTR War in the North are currently $4.50. Who's getting it and who's gonna play some LOTR with me?

[bearhawk72]

Eh, I have Asylum and City on PS3 and the others don't interest me.

[Slime Slayer]

"indie" Must feel good to support the little guy.

[Dudebro]

You can give 0 towards the dev and put it to charity and/or the humble bundle tip if you want.

[DrunkN]

"indie" Must feel good to support the little guy.

Hmm, I don't know if I would call WB games the "little guy."

Still, it's good to see that they're participating in the program to support charity. Given that these are bigger budget games, they take a larger loss in idealistic profit than the games that usually show up on the site.

That being said, I already have the batman games on PC and don't have an interest in F.E.A.R. I really wouldn't mind grabbing Scribblenauts though.

[Dudebro]

Hmm, I don't know if I would call WB games the "little guy."That was kind of the point of his sarcasm. The quotation marks give it away. :face:

Because of the dev I already planned on giving them 0. I don't have a problem with them I just figure the charity and the site need it a lot more.

[DrunkN]

That was kind of the point of his sarcasm. The quotation marks give it away. :face:

I, too, was sarcastic. I found the post to be really douchey and non direct in the meekly conceived complaint. See the use of a counterpoint for details.

Because of the dev I already planned on giving them 0. I don't have a problem with them I just figure the charity and the site need it a lot more.

I did the same thing with the developer for FEZ. I suppose I might do the same here, but I'll take a little more time to think about it.

[Slime Slayer]

I found the post to be really douchey

Because I was pointing out how incorrect the use of the word indie was? Okaaayy...

[Dudebro]

Update - They made it possible to gift individual games again because of the overwhelming negative feedback about linking accounts. I'm having trouble buying this bundle atm but when support figures it out I'll have an extra copy of Batman Asylum and City. Anyone got any games to trade for them?

[DrunkN]

https://www.humblebundle.com/store

I guess they launched a store that has listing changing every day.

[Dudebro]

Meh looks like the same value as Steam sales, which is good but not on par with the bundles. I suspect this is directly tied to the whole thing about linking your account to Steam.

[Seahawk]

Because I was pointing out how incorrect the use of the word indie was? Okaaayy...

If you looked closely at the site, you'd notice that the URL is actually www.humblebundle.com (http://www.humblebundle.com), and not anything about "indie" specifically.

They host grouped bundles of all sorts, "Humble Indie Bundle" is just one of them. At the time this thread was made Indie Bundle was on which is why it got in the thread title.

You could always ask for information plainly instead of making a negative snarky comment.

Making a bit of a big deal of it aren't you? It was just a passing comment, I have no clue why everyone got so pissed.

[Dudebro]

I would say annoyed not pissed. But like you said it was a passing comment and it should stay that way.

Btw if any point and click fans are interested the weekly bundle is eight games for six bucks. They look like they'd be good if you're into that.

Btw again thanks SH for pointing out why Indie is in the title of this topic I feel stupid for not thinking of it before. I'm gonna change the title and claim this topic for all humble bundles!

Redundant link, but I want to help out the lazy among us. (myself)

This week it's all Android games. They look epic and I went for it in a heartbeat.

[Kugyince]

They look epoch and I went for it in a heartbeat.

Fixed that for you.

[DrunkN]

Fixed that for you.

Alright the cover shooter has a hollow kind of excitement, but it seems fit enough to waste a little time on.

[Dudebro]

I hate when they do mobile games. Now it's two weeks of garbage people could probably buy for a couple bucks on their phones anyways.

[DrunkN]

I hate when they do mobile games. Now it's two weeks of garbage people could probably buy for a couple bucks on their phones anyways.

The last mobile bundle was pretty weak. (Seriously, Bloons and QWOP?) I think this one has a good line up, though. Sure they're cheap games to begin with, but it helps the devs out more that way.

[bearhawk72]

Pinball FX this week. Same as Zen Pinball on the PS3.

[DrunkN]

Good bundle this week. It's got a co op shoot em up that I think a few of us could get into.

It also has Closure, a personal favorite of mine.

---------- Post added 12-02-2013 at 03:11 AM ---------- Previous post was 12-01-2013 at 10:20 PM ----------

I just found out that shoot em up doesn't have online co op. Meh, no big deal, the game is still pretty good.

Humble Jumble Bundle

Natural Selection 2
Sanctum 2
Magicka + DLC

Beat the average for (currently at $3.90):

"The items in this bundle would normally cost around $165"

Vid (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gJrB-cHT80)

Humble Bundle (https://www.humblebundle.com/)

[Dudebro]

The new games added are Orcs Must Die GOTY edition and the Sanctum collection. That brings that total regular price up to around 215$. So you spend 4.17$ and get 9 premium games. There's almost no reason to pass this up.

You could even skip 6 of them and get 3 for pennies.

[Seahawk]

Sanctum DLC included.......:V

Should I just never buy anything from Steam directly ever again?

[Dudebro]

Only 19 hours left to get these 9 games for just under 5 bucks.

[Kugyince]

I looked at them and only Magika and Gary's Mod looked kinda interesting. The rest certainly aren't in my wheelhouse.

[Dudebro]

Well for a little over 4 bucks you could just give the rest away to RU Steam people who didn't buy the bundle. Merry xmas and all that.

[Kugyince]

I don't think anyone would want them who couldn't scrounge up $4 for them. Besides, I prefer my gifts to be spur of the moment type things.

[samejamesbond]

I have a spare copy of GMod from the Bundle if anyone's interested.
I prefer the message be a haiku as spoken in doge.

[Kugyince]

Don't you feel that Doge leverages more towards haiqua than haiku?

Garry's Mod
Such Game
Those Physics
Wow

[samejamesbond]

It is better for the longer haiquas, I was just curious what someone would
make with the more restrictive haikus.

Send me a PM with your email so I can send it to you.

[Kugyince]

Nah, I'll pass. Thanks anyways.

[samejamesbond]

Very well. In seriousness, if anyone wants the game you don't actually have to write poetry for my amusement.
Just leave a message here and I'll PM you.

[Dudebro]

The current Humble Bundle is Sid Meier games. Pay what you want for Civ3 and 4, 2 Ace Patrol Games and Railroads. Beat the average(7.65 atm) and get Civ5 and the Gods and Kings DLC. Pay more than 15 and get all of it plus the Brave New World DLC.

I can't speak about the flying/train games but the rest are all great. If you've been wanting Civ5 this seems like one of the best deals on it so far.

[samejamesbond]

I'd recommend it, what other game series lets you nuke Gandhi?

Big Pic:
http://www.retrouprising.com/img/2014_02/3237.jpg

[Seahawk]

I'm somewhat tempted so I can get Civ 5, and convert my Civ 3 complete physical to Steam. But the mass of DLC packs on Civ5 is confusing. It's a long list on the Steam store.

What does the base game include, and what do the expansions add?

[Dudebro]

The base game includes a lot, not sure what kind of list you want. As for the other DLCs I'd suggest just getting the two big ones, Gods and Kings and Brave New World. Those two add new civs, units, buildings, wonders, maps and they dramatically change the core gameplay. The rest of the DLCs are kinda meh to be honest. Don't waste money on map packs since you can just download tons for free on the workshop. Don't waste money on the extra civs unless you really must have them. You can download quiet a few civs in the workshop too(but some are just reskins). The only problem with workshop stuff is you can't use them in multiplayer.

[Seahawk]

So basically if I pay 15$ for everything here, I won't be missing out on much, as opposed to waiting for a sale on the complete pack on the steam store?

[Dudebro]

Yeah it's a great deal. I don't think it's been anywhere close to that on steam. If you end up liking the game you'll have tons of content to enjoy.

Btw make sure to spend more than 15 bucks so you get the full thing.

[Seahawk]

Ok. Thanks for answering all my questions.

[Dudebro]

Np but now you'll have to play a match with us when you get used to the game.

[Dudebro]

They're doing a different bundle each day, today is a pretty good one if you don't already have the games.



Dear Esther
Capsized
Awesomenauts
Thomas Was Alone
Little Inferno
Hotline Miami
Proteus
Tiny and Big in Grandpa’s Leftovers
English Country Tune
Intrusion 2
Oil Rush

Great deal for under 4 bucks.

Guns of Icarus is on the Humble Bundle today. It's about the same price as when it's on sale but you get a free game, Race the Sun. If you've been curious about GoI then buy it you won't regret it for three and a half bucks.

[Seahawk]

This week's weekly sale is a crazy RPG Maker bundle, and some games made with it. Valued at 370$, the whole thing can be yours for 12$.

[DrunkN]

X Com for one dollar? Yes please.

[Dudebro]

Xcom is in the "pay what you want as long as it's over 20 bucks" section. Unless I missed something?

[DrunkN]

The Bureau is only a dollar.

[Seahawk]

http://www.retrouprising.com/img/2014_08/4323.png

Really good weekly sale.

One Way Heroics is a rougelike where you are continually forced to go to the right. Really great implementation of the genre. Great music too.

Unholy Heights is a mega kawaii apartment simulator where you must manage a monster population living in your apartments. Adjust rent, evict residents, listen to have lots of sex (not kidding).

Worth it for just these two titles alone. 1$ minimum. All titles are available on Steam as well as DRM free.

[DrunkN]

Ys Origin has also been pretty fun in that bundle.

[Kugyince]

I might have to investigate further.

For the roguelike of course. Unless it's more like the color rouge...

[Seahawk]

[Dudebro]

This is a hot bundle, the average is already almost 8 bucks. Must be that damn Papers Please everyone keeps ranting about. I better bust out the CC quick.

[DrunkN]

Gone Home is aight. I hear Gunpoint is really good. Papers Please is great.

I might go in for Luftrausers.

[Mareeps]

>implying Gone Home is worth even a penny

[Seahawk]

http://www.retrouprising.com/img/2014_09/4452.jpg

You can try a bit harder than a greentext from /v/.

[Kugyince]

I've always wanted to play Gone Home but I probably can't stretch the funds this week out of the ol' gaming budget.

I have to pay for my Fantasy Life preorder and another month of the MC server first. We'll see what happens afterwards.

[CrispyChicken]

SteamWorld Dig looks fun. Only have to pay a dollar to get it?

[Dudebro]

@ChrisP- Yeah that Hammerwatch and Gunpoint are all a buck if you want. I'd say it's well worth it. If you beat the average you get some other games(unfortunately Papers, Please) and more when they reveal what the secret games are.



The weekly Bundle is also pretty cool if anyone likes strategy games. Some are older junk but others like Omerta and Patrician are supposed to be good. Also if anyone wants Airline Tycoon 2 let me know. I heard it's awful so I didn't redeem it.

[DrunkN]

Humble Bundle store page has Mount and Blade Warband for like six bucks.

I couldn't resist. :X

[Dudebro]

Tropico 3 is free today. Go to the HB store page and enter an email. It's a great game, if you're into city building and humorous dictatorships you can't go wrong.

[DrunkN]

https://www.humblebundle.com/

you can try demo versions of the games on the site for this week.

[Dudebro]

Oh lawd that starship bridge simulator thing is probably the dorkiest thing I've ever seen. Cool for people who like it but still dorky like crazy.

We should change this topic to include all game bundle sites. I thought of this because Bundle Stars has lots of bundles worth checking out and I didn't wanna make a new topic for the same subject.
All Game Bundles (http://www.bundlestars.com/all-bundles/)

I got the destiny bundle, mainly for Warring States. I'm a sucker for the three kingdoms stuff.

[Dudebro]

Bloodshed Bundle (http://www.bundlestars.com/all-bundles/bloodshed-bundle/)

Not the greatest bundle but it has a couple of games you guys might be interested in. 10 games for 3.49, including Guns of Icarus(awesome) and To The Moon(NOT a Honeymooners game).

12 bundles total-

Analogue is a great game. WEE is an interesting VN. Go Go Nippon is "take it or leave it." Long Live the Queen is otome garbage. I want to try Hate Plus (the Analogue sequel) and haven't heard of Roommates.

The weekly bundle is pretty cool this time too. Tier one(the cheap bastard tier) has Paper Sorcerer and bit Dungeon 2 which both look good and an older dungeon crawler named FATE which is supposed to be really good. Some of you might be interested in the next tier too, it has a turn based RPG that was supposedly originally designed for the SMS and Genesis. It also has two weird rpg type games. There's also some stupid looking jrpg in the top tier, if you're into that sort of thing.
