Indie Bundle Thread - There's another one?

There's also all the doubles you've already bought through Steam and other HIB.

For instance, all of the bonus games (except Wizorb) have already been featured in previous bundles. However, with how they used to do it (received the prior bundle), you'd still be getting dupes anyways.
 
I think this basically demonstrates that even if a lot of the games in the HIB are quite old and commonly featured on Steam sales, the discounts are still excellent.

And that doesn'y even take into account the soundtracks, multiple versions/keys, multiple platforms, and DRM freeness added value.


Unfortunately, if you're a hyper rational calculating type, then it also suggests you're basically an idiot for buying any indie games outside the HIB.

Indeed. As I've suggested in other threads, I think the Steam sales, bundles etc, while great for their spot revenue effect, are also training consumers to be more price sensitive with higher expectations of value over time.

I think that poses some big challenges for indie developers long term.
 
Really really interested in seeing how this website goes. I hope it does well; I like the idea more than the bundles.

likewise, more so I am interested to see what games they can get. My current fear is they will basically be a greatest hits of other bundles or giveaways for a while (chester was free on Desura for a week or so a few months back)
 
I haven't gotten around to playing that one yet, I got it in the June Bugs indie royal bundle back in mid june 2012 :P
I liked it and made a Steam icon for it back then.

I made another Escape Goat one since I got the bundle.

It's been a couple weeks since it's been mentioned in this thread, but IndieGameStand should be launching this evening.

Two hours left if anyone wants to get Chester free for registering.

I love the concept of the site and will definitely buy the first few games to support them.
Have they said anything about Steam Keys for games after the fact, like in the case that Escape Goat gets greenlit? Or maybe it's time to finally start using Desura.
 
What, a Bundle that's not the Humble Bundle that's actually good? Color me impressed!

The Oktoberfest Bundle

Hector: Badge of Carnage (Steam, all 3 episodes)
Chime (Steam)
The Adventures of Shuggy (Steam)
Dangerous High School Girls In Trouble! (Steam)
The Network (No Steam, so who cares?)

Good games that I actually wanted and didn't have! (the first three anyway)

Edit: for those that don't know, Indie Royale gives one key per game, so you can give the duplicates away.
 
Chime is brilliant. Worth it worth that alone. Wish the dev would expand the game with some more songs though.

Always liked that these guys gave you separate codes for all games.

Well that was fast!
 
All of my Steam keys from this Indie Royale are invalid :/

Did you happen to try and activate multiple of those Half-minute Hero keys? If you try too many keys in a row, you get locked out of activating keys for a while. It won't give you any specific error message, just invalid key.

Just a thought as I just did that few hours ago.

Restarting steam fixes this invalid key entry problem btw. Or at least it did for me when I was getting a Colourblind key.
 
so has anyone seen indie gala 9 do a happy hour at all, I have been watching but I haven't seen one.

It'll probably happen - it always happens on Indie Gala bundles.

I'd buy extra copies of Broken Sword to give out to friends. I hope they spam it out.

usually the first one happens before the week 2 stuff is even up... plus they didn't use to do a seconds counter either. I am hoping they do one though.

I think that was it, keys redeemed fine this morning.
 
Escape Goat PWYW is over. SpaceChem is now on IndieGameStand.

I imagine most of GAF who want it, have it already though :p

They snuck a bundle in there though:

"Pay at least $10 to create a 3 game bundle and receive SpaceChem, our previous game, Escape Goat, and our next Mystery Game."
 
Is SpaceChem any good? I've heard talk about it before but I can't remember if it was positive or negative so I'm not sure if I want to grab it.
