Incredible bundle, I own everything except the Swapper already but I've only played Guacamelee. Might as well stop buying indie games individually at this point.

Modbot, stop being a jerk. I'm trying to be charitable.

Hooray for charity!

Both are 10% off ($6.29) for the next week. Mumbo releasing new games gives me hope that SiN Gold will make it to Steam in the not-too-distant future.

Hooray! Super House of Dead Ninjas is 80% off for the next 24 hours. Even more discounted than the Community Choice category during the Winter sale. Buying it and the DLC right now.

Why? Because it's bloody good fun game all about frantic (if you want it to be) side scrolling tower travelling action where increasing in skill and reaction time is rewarded and oh so satisfying making it ever farther into the depths, improving in time, and beheading giant chickens. Want a sense of progression beyond one's own skills improving, well new items can be unlocked that similar to Ninja Gaiden give you different abilities for that play through or improvements to your weapons or like Shinobi another screen clearing magic attack.

As mentioned above by a friend, whom I'm glad got the chance to try it out. There is a "demo" of sorts, the original game that while has less stuff in it and is browser based so not as good as controlled as the main game with a gamepad, fun can be had to give you the idea.

So try it out and buy the game, it's great.

I promise that's my only fanatical rant about my favourite game on Steam for the rest of this sale.

I'm 100% sure I didn't own The Swapper before now. The key took forever to redeem, but when it finally did, it said I already owned it. It's in my library, but that was weird. My game count ticked up by one, so something happened.

I always seem to hold out on buying games, but then cave in on sales and then the same games show up on humble bundle a month later :D

Am I wrong, or does Humble add the games page to your account automatically? I havn't gotten an email yet either, but already added the games to my account.

My Library -> Scroll to the bottom

Also. HIB5 and HIB10 are roman numerals while the rest are numeric. Humble Bundle just wants to watch the world burn.

OMG at Humble Bundle 11. That is some insane deals right there. Got it without even looking at all the games. After Dust and Guacamalee I bought immediately.

I was kicking myself for missing Guacamelee earlier in the year. This is great news. It also helps that the only game I own from the bundle is The Swapper, which is a fantastic game well worth the price of the whole thing alone.

Such great value.

Holy shit @ the new Humble Bundle.
Too bad that I already have everything except for "Gianna Sisters". Please Gaf, give it to me.

Won't even try to put it as eloquently as KenOD, but yeah, SHODN is very fun. Ezra2680 generously gifted it to me last christmas and I loved what I played of it. I've been meaning to go back to it soon.

Is Giana harder than Guacamelee?

Yes, Guaca was very hard for me when I (tried) to play it on the Vita. Don't laugh. I'm terrible at platforms and they are the reason I'm also bad at Sen's Fortress in Dark Souls.

I found some portions fairly challenging too. That

Awesome bundle but I already own the most interesting games for me (Guacamelee and Dust) so I'm not getting it. If I didn't own these games already then I would certainly get this bundle right now.

Dust for me is the best one and one of the few games that I got all achievements in my entire life.

Super dumb question... but I am new to steam. I am wanting to pick up a $50 dollar card....

Do they charge tax for purchases on Steam? One game is $29.99 and the other is $19.99.
