Just bought the bundle. Dustforce looks great. I like that I can redeem the games on the Ubuntu Software Center.

Is this a new thing? I don't remember seeing that before.

Spoiler

Not that it matters that much to me since I use Arch, not Ubuntu

 

[Cth]

You will get anything they add later.

Thanks!

 

[cress2000]

If you beat the average now, and they add games later, do you get those for beating the average at time of purchase or the average when the extra games get added?

I'm a student/unemployed right now, which is why I'm asking. I know the whole charity aspect which I hope to contribute to once I get a job again. Thanks!

You actually don't have the beat the average at all to get the extras that come later if you buy the bundle before the extras are added. At least that's been my experience.

I don't understand the consistency of your message.

This will answer your question: pay $1 now if you don't have much money and you will get Steam keys, plus normally every possible bonii except Dustforce. If you really have no money or you don't care about Steam keys, you can either not buy it or buy it for $0.01, this is why they allow it.

 

[Omikaru]

Dustforce, Torchlight and Vessel? Sold. What an amazing bundle, as usual.

If you're poor (like me) and you want to beat the average, always get in early. Always.

 

[filipe]

Been waiting for a HB with Dustforce, and they delivered. Already own 2 of the games but screw it I want DF.

 

[Gowans]

Had shatter on PS3 amazing game, fantastic soundtrack. Will be nice to play on my MacBook whe stick on the train.

 

[inky]

Skipping this one, but it's a cool bundle.

 

[Nabs]

Vessel gets really good after the tutorial area. I had trouble putting it down once the game got started.

Dustforce is one of my favorite games this year. It just requires some practice. This 360 controller setup has served me well. It's a good starting point. People also swear by the keyboard and arcade sticks. Go with whatever feels right.

 

[Cade]

Really good bundle, HB knocks it out of the park again. Just when you think you're oversaturated with indie bundles, the big dog comes back and shows you what's up.

 

[Vandiger]

What a bundle, if you are new to PC games. Always wait for the humble bundles, wow.

 

[Toppot]

So bought. Not that I need another copy of Shatter or the Soundtrack but it doesn't hurt =P

 

[Spierek]

Only had Shatter, so getting everything else for 5.20$ was a steal. Looking forward to playing Rochard and Dustforce.

 

[Gowans]

Shatter seems to have an issue on the latest OSX.

Can't get it to open at all. Just keeping saying check it works on this version on OSX

 

[Aru]

Since I play 99% of the time on consoles and handhelds, the only times I buy PC games are when there are :
- cheap game bundles like this one (well I made it "cheap" because of the amount I gave)
- Steam sales

Bought this one just because I'm interested in Torchlight, but the other games seem great too.

 

[Pyccko]

Hahaha, FUCK. I just bought Shatter the other day when it was the daily. OH WELL, still got the bundle, as I've been wanting Rochard and Dustforce for a while.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Bought the bundle. Will pick up Dustforce some other time though.

 

[Shepard]

Thanks for the heads up, was really willing to try Dsutforce but for some reason I never bought it.

 

[Milla]

You should buy this bundle for the Shatter soundtrack and consider all the games a bonus.

Thanks

Module is playing that live this week. Thats being streamed, and then posted to YouTube, if you want to see how he does it

If Sidhe and Runic count as indy, then almost everybody does. Sidhe is a 100+ staff well established studio that has made games for Activision for crying out loud.

I guess including these types of games could increase sales which benefits the charaties which is a good thing, but call it something else then.

You're over-estimating our current size, and discounting our status as in independent, self-publishing developer

Good lord, Shatter is fantastic!

Glad to hear it!

Shatter seems to have an issue on the latest OSX.

Okay, will look into it, thanks.

 

[Zimbardo]

what an awesome bundle.

i already own Torchlight and Shatter, but its so bought!!!


Shatter has one of the best video game soundtracks that i've heard, too ...imo.

 

[Bulzeeb]

I already have shatter but the other games look great, migth bite it

 

[justjim89]

I love getting 5 games for a dollar. Especially since I probably would've never bought any of these normally.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

awesome bundle.....

did not make the same mistake I did with Bastion and pay under the avg amount this time!

Dust is mine!

 

[Danielsan]

Bought for Dust Force.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

BOUGHT.

Its worth it for Shatter+Soundtrack alone...

 

[Franklinator]

Don't have any of these, so I'm in for $6.

And Shatter's logo looks like a dong.

 

[Platy]

Humble people from NEOGAF !

I need your help.

I need a good excuse to not make this my donation =P

I feels unfair to do it this way .... but I already have dustforce and the game is SOOOO GOOODDDDDDD =x

 

[Blitzzz]

noooo..... i just got shatter over the weekend sale.....

great game but I'm so sad

 

[airmangataosenai]

I already own DustForce so I'll admit that I cheaped out on this one. Kinda feel bad, I suppose.

 

[Milla]

Bought for Dust Force.

Me too. The others are a bonus, and of course I already have Shatter.

 

[CheesecakeRecipe]

Might have to find some pennies and grab it for Dustforce alone. Decent bundle all around though!

They let you pick how you want to distribute stuff for a reason -- it's entirely your choice. If you want it to be all developers, no charity, that's fine. If you want to reward some developers and not others, that's fine. If you want it to be all charity, that's fine.

The vast, vast majority of people do not edit the split, so you can rest assured that every single developer, the Humble Bundle people, and both charities will make a huge sum, easily in the six figures each.

 

[RoaringHawk]

Bought for Dustforce! FINALLY!

Not sure if I should activate the other code for SPAZ and Vessel as I have the others...

 

[justjim89]

I've never played Diablo games before, and I know that's essentially what Torchlight is. Is it like an MMO or Roguelike or something? What can I expect from it?

 

[Canis lupus]

Oh hell yes, I missed the humble bundle 5.

 

[NZNova]

True facts right here.

 

[Gowans]

Okay, will look into it, thanks.

Brill, it's running on Steam on a MacBook Retina with OSX as up to date as can be.

Update your own Wikipedia page then! Also you don't self publish everything you make. Again if you qualify, there is very little that doesn't qualify. I don't know what Indie should mean but it definately shoudn't mean "Anybody not owned by Nintendo, Microsoft, Sony, EA, Activision or Ubisoft".

 

[hardcastlemccormick]

It's very similar to the first Diablo. A single major dungeon that changes as you go down, a little bit of sidequesting in one-off dungeons, and a town where you buy and sell your loot. The gameplay is action RPG; meaning one click is one action, and it's all in real time. It's much more active than an MMO and there is a little bit of navigation involved in battles. Most of the fun is in customizing your loadout to change your playstyle, and feeling accomplished when you find something cool or level up.

Try the Diablo II demo if you want to get a feel for how that series pioneered the genre. Diablo II has more open areas to explore, which is what Torchlight II is also adding.

You paid $1 for the bundle?

 

[justjim89]

You paid $1 for the bundle?

Yep. Limited funds, and I'm not going to pay an extra 4 dollars and change for an extra game I've never heard of. I just wanted to pay enough to get the Steam key.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

I did the exact same thing. Just wanted the steam key.

Updating our own Wikipedia page would be against the TOS.

Also, we now fund and publish games from other developers. That makes us even less indie since we are practically Activision now.

 

[Dingotech]

Wow that's an awesome bundle!!!

Pity I own just about all of them. But I've paid over the average to get Dustforce and Rochard.

Might have to buy a few gift copies for friends who normally wouldn't buy some of these great games!

Okay then next press release you do, mention the new studio size and the wiki ninjas will find it.

How long do you have left before you turn evil?

Didn't EA get busted for editing their own Wiki page? Guess that means Sidhe is still holding strong in the "Not Evil" camp so far.

 

[Sora_N]

Just paid $5.51 to beat the average, normally I pay a bit more but I'm on very limited funds.

Do I have to hate you now? Shatter sucks!

I give myself 6 months tops.
