But aligning monster sprites and setting up attack animations is SO boring!

Junior, please.
Good bundle but I already own all the games I want except Astebreed, so it's just $5 off really. Too much on my plate at the moment.

put 10 bucks for it, redeemed through steam
For people not familiar with theses games this bundle is awesome.
Astebreed: Really solid, non traditional shmup with shifting camera perspective
Gigantic Army; Neat Cybernator/Assault Suit Valken clone
Ys Origin: (arguably) best Ys game.
Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae: Bascially Devil May Cry's Bloody Palace mode.
One Way Heroics; Fun Rogue-like sort-of-JRPG where you always have to keep moving forward
Haven't played Pixeljunk Shooter or Unholy Heights but have mostly heard good things.

I already have pretty much everything I want except for Ys and Astebreed maybe, but I've already played Astebreed and it certainly didn't convince me. Why is there a limit for just one mediocre game? I bought a ton of Humble Bundles, but I either buy everything or nothing - and Astebreed isn't worth the markup. So I assume this will be the first time I'll pass.

Gigantic Army is really good. It could use another stage or two and better weapon balance, but it's probably the best indie/doujin run and gun I've come across.
Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae is decent if you keep your expectations in check. There's very little enemy variety and the combat is fun for a while, but it is fairly shallow, so it gets old shortly after you unlock every move and explore all of your options. It's good enough for what it is though, and the graphics and animation are really nice for a doujin game.

Wait, how do these humblebundles work? Do I get everything if I pay 10 bucks? Or do I have to pay 16?

Pay 10$ and you get everything.
You get everything for 10 dollars. Plus more bonus games next week if they add anything in.
i dont believe they do this for the weekly bundles, but the main bundle they do.

One of the better bundles in recent memory.

I just got a PC that is able to play games. The $10 game doesn't look very interesting, is the $6 pack worth it? The only game I own is Pixel Junk Shooter, and I have wanted to play an Ys game.
Ys Origin alone is absolutely worth the $6.

thanks guys, got it!

Same here. Astebreed looks rad.

I am only familiar with ys ( think I already own it) what is the verdict on the other games.

I don't have PayPal, so I didn't think I would be able to get it. Turns out they accept Visa Debit, unlike other sites I shop at, so I was able to get the $6 tier ($6.72 Canadian -.-). Ys was the main reason for me purchasing it, as you and a bunch of others on NeoGAF are vocal about how good the series is.
Just played about an hour of Astebreed. It's definitely fun and visually appealing. Highly recommended for shmup fans!
Yeah I don't think they do either.

It was on sale for $4.99 a couple weeks back with the other Ys games at $3.74.

Totally worth it because of Ys Origin.

This man/woman/whatever is correct!
Ys is totally worth it.
I spent the $10 for Astebreed though since you guys say its worth it.

Highly appreciating all the GIGANTIC love
Thanks for noticing us. I don't want to feel sad thinking Senpai GAF never notices us. Btw, Astro Port devs are huge fans of shmups, giant robots and tanks... Guess it's kind of obvious looking at their games!For those asking about Pixeljunk Shooter I already posted my opinion: a pretty damn neat non-traditional shmup. Very polished and recommended indeed.

Shit. I have Astebreed and One-Way Hero sitting in my Steam inventory. I'd rather have both of those DRM-free. I wonder if someone will give me a few bucks for those...

I did a search and came up with nothing. Was there a thread specifically on Gigantic Army? I'm usually clueless of what's going to be released unless it's on GAF.

Has anyone managed to get Ys Origin to work with a PS4 controller? I am using the DS4 to Xinput Wrapper and it was worked for the others games I have tried, but on Ys Origin the controller seems to be always set to move the analog stick up. In the config I see a second option called Wireless Controller, and it looks like that is mapped by default to have the analog in the top-right position. Is there anyway to get this to work? Thanks.
Posted in the Steam thread too.

Choose the option in DS4tool to hide the DS4 controller. By default, the system sees both the DS4 as a HID and a X360 controller. Most games work fine with it, but some games will read input from both at the same time. Enabling this option disables the DS4 HID devices and solves this issue.

Alright, I tried this. But the Wireless Controller still has a weird zoning issue.
This is with no input on the controller.

"Wireless Controller" is the thing you need to hide with Hide DS4. It should say something like (360 controller for Windows).
Probably not worth it. MKH is too simplistic a fighter to be entertaining for very long. Don't believe the hype.

How do I manage this? When I click "Hide DS4 Controller" it hides "Controller (XBOX 360 for Windows)" which is the one that I want to keep.
