Yeah. I suspect it'll go live within the next 2-3 weeks as the goal a month ago was the end of August.

Ahh ok wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything.
Just want to say that this page at IGBW is incredibly helpful, indicating which games have had extra keys added to bundle games.
http://indiegamebundle.wikia.com/wiki/Keys_Added
They also list all the bundle games which have been Greenlit.

Awesome.
Too bad I already reached the 200 sale limit on the Steam Market for the calendar year.

It's only a limit if you aren't willing to give steam a little extra info. As long as you fill out the short form that they tell you about as you approach that limit then you, as far as I know, can sell as much as you want. (it's at least 300 as I have sold over that many cards (I have 491 between selling and buying and I don't think I have bought more than 50 cards let along 191

Which key was that? They activated fine for me, but I didn't use the Stellar Impact one.
Did you try restarting the client?
EDIT: Okay

Yeah, sorry, they showed up right after I posted that.

So how are the games in this new bundle?
Jawmuncher

The general consensus seems to be "meh" to okay when looking at the other forums.
Dont like how the bundle is set at 5 bucks since I only want 100% orange juice.
im in the same boat and then said screw it and bought it for $6 just to give 100% juice a try lol
in other bundle news
Groupees said:Got a rad game bundle coming up for you guys tomorrow! We think you'll be pleased. More announcements to come....

The Apple Jack games are amazing, some of the best content produced through Xbox's indie games, I believe there are some GAF impressions of the first game here http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=420528 though the other games aren't all that great.
Jawmuncher

I was about to until you mentioned the groupee bundle.
Definitely grabbing that. All of the games there don't look half bad.
btw 100% juice is ok, nothing special but not terrible... not the next dokapon kingdom or fortune street to drop on my friends and get them addicted
oh well it's nice to own a unique video game board game on PC even if it's just ok.

True. Im actually surprised at the lack of PC board game type games.

Looks good, hopefully the DLC comes as separate keys as I already have the base of Krater and Hamilton.

Groupees bringing the goods once again! It doesn't matter how cheap the cards are, if they have 3 non-BTA games you'll almost make your money back if you buy it for a dollar.
It's really sad how Indie Royale has fallen, by contrast. I don't remember the last IR I bought, I don't know if it's the new management's fault or just coincidence. Let's hope their 50th bundle is worthy...

I really wish some developer would speak up about why and how these bundles vary so greatly in quality. Obviously getting into the Humble Bundle is hitting the jackpot but leaving that one aside... Groupees usually have the best games in their bundles but they end up selling a surprisingly small number of copies whereas Indie Royale and Indie Gala keep recycling absolute bottom of the barrel stuff and somehow seem to have more mindshare (and possibly revenue?).
dirtywhirlwind
Member
Um, what?
What would you expect them to say, that you shouldn't already be able to figure out on your own?
derExperte

Indie Royale delivers far more quality than Gala and they only recycle occasionally, you can't compare them at all. Also they afair only once cracked 10.000 sold bundles while Be Mine 8 got to 35.000.

Were you trying to redeem the Swords & Soldiers DLC before you redeemed the game?
No. It appears that steam is having connectivity issues at the moment, so that's more than likely the culprit. I just hope trying to activate them during the downtime doesn't somehow make the keys void or corrupt.

I'm about to break 100 games on Desura. I have never installed the Desura client or downloaded a game on Desura.

Perhaps I should have phrased that better. In my opinion, Groupees consistently get better games than the competition. This has been true since the beginning when they had just started selling game bundles and their website/support etc. was an absolute mess. They also (generally) have the lowest prices. And yet they somehow manage to attract the best talent (so to speak) which is why I wonder what makes them so attractive to developers. Even if they offer a higher cut, their prices are lower so I'm not sure how much more lucrative it is. That's why I was wondering if someone who actually dealt with all this could chime in on what makes Groupees a better choice.
I didn't know this. I was under the impression that both Indie Gala and Royale were pulling in tens of thousands of sales at a higher average price. Not surprised that BM8 got to 35k though... that one was really one of the best non Humble bundles ever.
I haven't either, no comment on the number though. lol.
Several devs have stated Desura is pretty much worthless for making money. There are some good games there that aren't on other platforms, though. Buried under tons of crap and high school class project games.

That's the way to go.
Honestly I only started being interested in those bundle at the end of May (2013) and I already own like 200 games? But I have only played three of them. I just buy and give little money to devs and charity, since I don't play the games it's like a donation. And I'm okay with it. (though all in all it must be a few dozens of dollars per month)
Desura is garbage, their downloader is wtf awful. Games that you can just download an exe are fine though.
In other news, no one posted the new humble bundle 9, right?

Got my Zafehouse Diaries key on Desura today (bought through IndieRoyale, get a key through the Desura collection page)
And apparently Groupees 8 Steam keys for Paranautical Activity are rolling out right now, nothing on my page yet though.

I know, right? I own most of their earlier bundles, but very few from the past year. I'm not sure if they burned through the interesting mid-tier indie stuff or people just stopped being interested in working with them.

They just get folded into the turn based strategy genre. Greed Corp and Delve Deeper are pretty much board games in everything but name.
My interest in indie royal for the most part dropped after they got rid of preorders... I am a sucker for the unknown, I would likely own every bundle from them if there was still preorders, instead i only own like 4 of them since they stopped preorders lol.
This does not work for me, the Desura collection page states that "I need to get keys from Indie Royale where this game was purchased", while the Indie Royale page for The Mighty Bundle does not have "Generate Steam key" option for me.
Same here, I mailed the IndieRoyale support. Let's see what they say.

Doubt it. What is Heavy doing in there?
Don't you find it also strange that TF2 is also in one those silhouettes?

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
If I had to wager a guess, I think it might have something to do with the steamgifts-knockoff website those people run: http://www.playblink.com/.
Two possibilities I can surmise: the website owners have either been amassing a wealth of unused gift keys or they'll be allowing users to bundle together their own spare keys.

It could that poker game possibly.

I'd play one of these online quizzes with gaming characters as silhouettes, identifying all of them on that site was fun (who's the one between Don't Starve guy and Gordon Freeman?)
