For its third offering, Indie Royale is bundling together five new games because hey we're all buying stuff right now and everyone loves cheap bundles of good games. A bit of quantity and quality, you know? Hey, the Indie Royale folks must know what they're doing -- Gamasutra (http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/38770/Indie_Royale_Debuts_Third_Really_Big_Bundle.php) reports the first two bundles have moved over 350,000 games across 70,000 total bundle sales.

Within The Really Big Bundle, you'll be able to grab headliner Really Big Sky, a pair of Zeboyd games, the guys bringing back Penny Arcade Adventures (http://www.joystiq.com/2011/08/26/penny-arcade-adventures-episode-3-still-alive-zeboyd-at-the-hel/), titles: Cthulhu Saves the World (http://www.joystiq.com/game/cthulhu-saves-the-world) and Breath of Death VII (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/breath-of-death-vii/).

In case noone realized, this is a pretty cool pack and pretty much another Humble Bundle. Eufloria alone sells for like $15.



EDIT: Wow. Eufloria is a gem. A true diamond in the rough, had no idea this game was so well designed, casual yet strategic. I would have bought it sooner had I known how brilliant it was.

Funny, I tried to play Eufloria but I couldn't do anything at all.

It took me a minute to figure out what to do, too. You would kind of think that they start you out planting trees, but they don't - they want you to "explore." So you click on one asteroid, drag the line to another, and send guys there. Once you get that down, they explain further steps - like the fact that you need 10 seedlings in one place to plant a new tree.

But for that first 30 seconds or a minute, I couldn't quite figure out what they wanted me to do, either. Said to myself: why don't they pop up a reminder if they see I'm not doing something? Could have used a bit more polish on that intro.
