Thanks for the recommendation, never heard of this one before.
I hadn't either until tonight thus just trying to get it a little attention so the guy can maybe support it and update it properly (he has a kickstarter going that has a whole 14 backers right now) I hope you end up enjoying it enough to tell your friends as I always like telling all my friends about fun indie games and try to get others to spread the word about decent indie games, something I am sure you can appreciate lol.... (lost track of how many people I told about Dust
)anyways I suppose I should update with some other bundles real quick. (click pictures if you want some bundles)
groupees ajay's bundle
indiegala greenlight bundle
Some nice games in that Indiegala bundle. First time I've bought one of their bundles, but apparently you need Desura to download some of the games. Guess I better man up and finally make an account.
You have my love

The Indiegala one looks pretty great. Just got it, I'm registering the Desura keys (separate ones in case anyone wants to know).
Edit: Ehh. Yeah, not as good as it seems. The Girl and the Robot was extremely underwhelming (even if it does say it's a "pre-alpha"), and I've yet to decide if Loot Hero is the most mindless non-game ever, a scathing commentary on the hooks of progression on otherwise simplistic gameplay with zero challenge, or the digital equivalent of bubble wrap popping. And learning that there's an actual animal hunting simulator in the bunch doesn't help matters exactly. :/

Apparently both Bundle Stars and Indie Gala thought it would be a good idea to offer Zeno Clash II this week. Gala wins, though, with the inclusion of Oniken along with ZC II in the $1 tier.

Inescapable and Frederic both have Steam keys now if you bought this bundle.

Most recently it was part of the Indie Gala Greenlight Bundle, but that closed on May 13th.

Found ya thread. Can I plea to people to try and keep this alive as while all the bundles tend to get posted in the Steam thread, that thread is too busy for anyone to keep on top of (27 pages in a ~8 hours). A lack of replies /=/ a lack of interest.
There is also another groupees greenlight bundle. I believe qrth-phyl was in indiegamestand a long time ago. There is quite an extensive write-up here
As of this post there are 7 hours left on the $1.49 offer.

Not really an indiebundle but over on Facebook PC gamer are giving away SpaceChem steam keys for free. There is a day left to go.
http://www.pcgamer.com/2014/06/25/w...em-steam-keys-to-give-away-with-bundle-stars/
What happens tomorrow? (well 26 hours from this post) There will be a game featuring dinosaurs on offer instead.

er, wow... I'm glad I got that indiegala bundle in time, there were a few things I was interested in
thanks a ton, starwolf!

listen to the mad man
One of the problems is that when this thread was started, there were periodic indie bundles of interest, whereas now there are 5-6 full time indie bundle operations bundling dozens of keys every single week, mostly garbage-tier stuff.
If someone wants to follow all of them, they're actually better off using a resource like this:
https://igbwiki.com/wiki/Indie_Game_Bundle_Wiki
Not to say people can't post them here, or whatever, I'm very pro that. I just mean that it's not super likely that people are going to post low-impact bundles here out of obligation to the thread given the workload.

In fact, I'm perfectly fine with only the more interesting bundles being posted here. If the thread is bumped every time a mediocre bundle with entirely unknown games is released (i.e. every day), I'm more likely to ignore it.
to be fair a screenshot of the games and a link to the bundle isn't that hard, i just felt it was better to only post the bundles with interesting games because of flood of bundles out there now.
i mean lets see
groupees android bundle 25 cents a game min 4 games
yeah takes about a min, but most of the games there aren't even worth looking at

I think medicore games or unknown bundles are fine as long as someone can think up why they are posting it (I'd say out of the groupees android bundle Treasures of Montezuma is the only thing of interest for instance). Of course someone like Toma posts threads on these when they pop up on indie game stand but not everyone has that kind of dedication.
Anyway these two won't fit on the site but the only pros are they come with steam trading cards (which are probably going to net you £0.10 totals) and they're free.
PC Gamer - Dino D-Day . (I knew it would be this) Bad multiplayer shooter with playable dinosaurs.
Indiegala - Woodle tree adventures. Looks like a short mediocre 3D platformer.
Since the post is made. Groupees Sometimes Tuesday the best part you probably already own. RTS/Tower Defence Revenge of the Titans is the only one I've heard of, I guess it is not bad for $1 but the Puppygames ultra bundle that was just in the Summer sale is a lot better value.
Similar pattern with the current Indie Royale: Mixer 6 where Chime is the highlight in my eyes and the rest I have no interest in there (note: Knightshift is a 2003 game) but that is much more than $1.
I was not aware of such a site.

Cinders is neat if you like VNs.
I remember they had problems getting onto Steam before, but it looks like the Greenlight process has gotten VNs onto the platform.

I put about 30 minutes into Raetikon and I'm not sure I can really recommend it. It can be a strikingly pretty game in parts but the act of flying doesn't feel enjoyable enough to be an entire game focused around it and after the initial joy of seeing the world it seems to becomes nothing more then a guided tour of collecting bits and feeding those bits into machines to unlock more similar looking caves to collect more bits to feed into more machines. Their are occasional fun moments but I don't think anyone should get that bundle just for that game. However, I can recommend Mercenary Kings and Antichamber, both are excellent although Merc Kings is more of a 'Monster Hunter style item collect and craft' game then its screens initially display so be aware that if you go in just expecting Metal Slug you might be disappointed.

Humblebundle.com has Octodad: Dadliest Catch for $4.99 and Shadow Warrior for $7.99 today only. Are either worth it?

BUY OCTODAD
This is the correct answer. Don't worry, nobody suspects a thing.
It's nice to see a bundle where I don't have any of the games once in a while

Really Big Sky is the free game from PC gamer/Bundlestars this time and this time they want you to use twitter. Seems to also add the Woody Box app to your twitter account (I suspect the usual, harvests the public info, can choose to spam your feed) so be sure to deactivate that crap ASAP.
Groupees Sometimes Tuesday is also quite good:
http://groupees.com/tuesday
1000 Amps has been on my radar for some time. If I'm lazy Monochrome Metroidvania is the description.

Auditorium is the current IndieGameStand. I like the games Cipher Prime puts out. I can't really say any more than that sadly.

The latest Indie Royale bundle is pretty good:
The Shoe Bundle
- Stealth Bastard Deluxe
- Savant: Ascent
- Mr. Bree+
- Jack Lumber
- Fly'N
- Oozi: Earth Adventure
- Akane the Kunoichi (Despite its fanservicey title card, it's supposed to be a pretty good platformer)
- Doomed n' Damned
- ??? game
All, except for Doomed n' Damned, have Steam keys. Doomed n' Damned is on Greenlight.

I feel sad this thread is dead so I might as well revive it a bit.
groupees is about to start up a doujin bundle you can preorder now (next 30 min from this post) at $2 and get the whole bundle for likely half the price it will be when it launches (assuming it works like other preorders)
they also have a retro game bundle coming
running be mine 15
arena bundle
bundle of the damned 3
build a greenlight 12
speaking of greenlight stuff indie royal has a debut bundle 20
and they also have the mixer 10
humble bundle has
humble indie 13
halloween bundle
mobile bundle
finally indie gala has some bundles
but yeah at the very least i am going to try to remember to post about the groupees bundles since they do preorders at reduced prices for the 12-24 hours before the bundle goes live so if you aren't constantly watching you will miss them.

And here's what we know so far (these were mentioned recently in the chat by Groupees):
- Blazblue is pretty much confirmed at this point. Duplicity is one of the games in the header image.
- They teased that it will have at least Blazblue, 2 shmups, and 1 visual novel.
- 2 tiers: $1 and $4, $2 preorder for the whole bundle.
- Blazblue will be in the $4 tier. So you're better off preordering if you want that.
ah thanks for the new info.
the doujin bundles tend to be solid so I just preordered it twice over without even bothering to find hints for the games

Spot on. The shmups are Danmaku Unlimited 2 and Reflex.

It is to do with the Mozilla bundle. They added browser support for some games. This also exists for older bundles that also had those games too. Not sure how to get past that as I don't use a profile on Humble Bundle but on the bundle pages it was not a pop-up.Is anyone else getting this screen? It is happening in both Firefox and Chrome. I cant close it or do anything. And my Chrome is bare, no adblocks or anything.

Yeah thanks for the info. Looks like I will have to install Java or some crap.

Higurashi has been out for what? 2 months? Apparently, Eden and Super Chain Crusher Horizon are very solid as well.
I've played Mercenary Kings, visually it's neat, but the structure of missions is super boring/repetitive and it is not like Metal Slug as the art suggests.
