Game Sales for all!

Dammit, you beat me again! :D
But yes, the Summer Batch comes HIGHLY recommended by me, at least for anyone who either: likes a good story, likes a point & click, likes supporting master craftsmen of the indie trade, or likes a game which looks perty(Ben304 DAAAYM!).
A quick run through of the games and their creators:
Barely Floating by Stemshock Interactive. Since this group was headed by Aki 'AJA' Ahonen, who has been making adventure games for ten years and winning awards all the while, I have high expectations for this. The game itself is set on a luxury yacht which has just been attacked by pirates, intrigue ensues. These guys are masters of characterisation, and I fully expect to be blown away by the awesomeness of this game, as I have been previously.
Jailbreak by Virtual Illusion. This one's actually not a Point & Click, it's an action/stealth/beat-em-up! As much as I wasn't keeping up with the development of this one, I'm still holding great expectations; I mean, just look at their website! :P
Nancy the Happy Whore by Technocrat Games(I.e. Technocrat himself + Pfaller on music + presumably selmiak as a tester). This game looks set to be the funny one in the batch; it even includes a Latin translation! As for the developers, Technocrat's won his fair share of awards, and Pfaller's music is near legend.
Patchwork by Ivan 'Ilych' Ulyanov. Just check out the hand-drawn visuals on this thing... But yeah, this one involves a scientist accidentally teleporting himself into an alternate universe, complete with fantasy setting!
PISS by Ben 'ThreeOhFour/Ben304' Chandler. This is Ben fucking Chandler, need I say more?! Not actually sure what this one's about, but that's part of the beauty of Ben's games: they always surprise you! Aside from it's Chandler-awesome art and atmosphere to recommend it, I have it from Ben's very words that it's a spiritual successor to Awakener, my favourite of his games. Also has awesome music (I bought it sperately) by the talented Qptain Nemo.

Also, it's probably worth noting that unlike last time (the AGS Bake Sale) where ALL the proceeds went to charity, only $50 from every $500 is going this time. From memory, there was a lot of people complaining last time that they didn't get an opportunity to support the developers themselves, and wanted much less charity. :P

 

New Indie Royale bundle:

Lol wanted much less charity nice.
But grr don't gilt me into buying another bundle based on your wonderful reviews melon.
I ask you this if I found it hard to play Ben There Dan That would I enjoy these.

Also why can't I unbold this? WTF!
Oh it is unbolded.

Sweet the new Royale gives me another chance at getting Sol Exodus and sweet I new Cubemen would be bundled. I really want Pineapple Smash Crew to get bundled next.

Should probably also add that the Indie Gala added the Gala Store. Save money on games by buying bundles--can't get a game 100% off though.

 

Well, I can certainly attest that AJA and Ben's games (Barely Floating and PISS) are certainly a far cry from the flippant, adventure-game-trope-savvy work of good old Zombie Cow. Yes, you'll probably still be fine. ;)

EDIT: Also, just in case it wasn't already clear, these games aren't made for children, and for various reasons aren't recommended for them neither. :p

New HIB, check it out. /lazy :p

 

New Humble Android Bundle 3

Fieldrunners Bit.Trip Beat SpaceChem Uplink
get Spirits beat the average currently $6

Its worth it for Bit.Trip if you haven't played that yet.

 

Or Spacechem, as it's pretty boss too! :D

 

I tried SpaceChem I didn't enjoy it I know I need to give it another chance ensuring I understand all the mechanics properly and stuffs but with so much other stuffs to play its not high on my list. I'm too cool for puzzles anyway. Also this post is going to bring my like to post ratio to 1 instead of being above one for ever. :(

4 games added to the Humble Android Bundle and they are all games that have already been in Humble Bundles at least once not only that they were in the other Android bundle.
Come on Wolfire you are setting the bar really low for being the flagship bundle.
You also need to beat the average to get them.
The promotional video wasn't even as good as usual.
Ima have to step in and make my own game bundle soon.

Wow I've been not wasting time so I haven't been keeping up to date more bundles LIVE NOW!
Also new Green Light Bundle tomorrow and a new BeMine coming up the later of which has some pretty mediocre games in it including what I consider to be a contender for the worst game ever and yet its getting a sequel.

Get your face kicked in here!

Also pay $25 +$6 bucks international get the games on a custom USB stick.​

I like the idea of tangible incentives on bundles unless it ends up getting way out of hand (just like bundles have).​

Adam's Adventure​

Desert Gunner​

Hard Truck Apocalypse​

Hell Torches​

Operation Matriarchy​

The Entente: Battlefields World War​

'No Steam no Desura pure DRM free'​

Doesn't Desura allow bundles to use keys from them at no cost and doesn't count as DRM?​

Though maybe its just making up a reason to not have codes due to these games not making it to Steam... :]​

sup Toby

 

Lol dat Greg guy. ^__^

 

Am I that Grey guy? No. I was under a guest name I hadn't logged into twitter yesterday but he was funny entertaining.

 

The latest Bundle In A Box has some interesting stuff!
Definitely worth it, just in case you're wondering. ;)

 

New Humble Bundle http://www.humblebundle.com/

Torchlight - Rochard - Shatter - Space Pirates and Zombies -Vessel
and Dustforce if you pay more than the average

 

Indie Gala 9 is live!
http://www.indiegala.com/

Call of Cthulhu: WL, Battlegroup, Worms, Alien Breed 2

Beat the average and...

Broken Sword 1, 2, and 3 Worms Blast, Worms Crazy Golf and two unlocks

 

Deffo worth it for the Broken Swords. :D

 

I can recommend Worms Blast too. It is definitely not 10/10++ but has given me loads of fun.

 

does halflife2 come with garrys mod

 

Garry's mod still has to be bought, or you could use their older version for free.
Or at least thats what I would assume as there is no mention of it in the list.

 

Latest Indie Royale is a doozie!
Comes with my all-time favourite game, plus other awesome stuff. :)

 

Which of those is your alltime fav? CBA to look through them all again.

 

To The Moon. :)

 

I might pick it up for just that game. RPS seemed to gush about it.
