    Default It's that time again...Humble Introversion Bundle

    Pay what you want for four Introversion Studios Games: Uplink, Darwinia, DEFCON and Multiwinia. Plus, pay more than the average (as of this writing, $3.17 and rising) and get Aquaria and Crayon Physics Deluxe. Plus, all the usual extras they throw in during the two-week period. Get crackin'!

    If you don't want the games then donate 5 bucks and set your slider bars to charity. They seriously make it as easy as possible to download the games on every major platform along with setting your rates of payment towards devs and charity. I see no reason other then being lazy or not having a paypal account to not give just a little cash to these bundles, they are always such a good deal and you help out a good cause.

    You don't like PC gaming?
    -Maybe you will in the future, build a library now for super cheap!

    You don't have the cash?
    -Yes you do, stop lying to yourself unless literally 5 bucks (or less) will break your budget!....and if that the case sell your computer/phone/internet enabled whatever and/or service and get your priorities straight!

    Don't like X game in this bundle?
    -Still doesn't hurt to give a few bucks for charity or a dev you like!

    STILL Don't like X game in bundle?
    -Often times games are added to bundles as they go on, give a dollar and it might pay off in a bit!

    I already own every title in this one.

    I want to have the two tech demos, but I'll probably skip it entirely. I just can't spare the money.

    Grabbed it only for Uplink and Defcon. Have the others from previous bundles.

    I am not interested in the "new" games, already own copies of the "old" games, and if I wanted to give more money to charity, I would give directly to some of them. And honestly, these "Humble" Indie Bundles have grown much, much too frequent for my taste. If they were only once or twice a year, I could see them as an infrequent, worthy cause; but as they seem to happen now about half a dozen times per year, it feels like a money grab. But who could blame them for wanting to have them more frequently - they make like $1000000 each time. Sure it is split several ways, but nonetheless...

    I personally hope that this could be an alternative business model in the future. As good as some of these indy games in the bundles have been there is pretty much no way I would of paid the original price for any of these games. This way I don't feel like I've overpaid for an overrated piece of crap if it is an overrated piece of crap and the devs still get a piece of the action. That and I don't see anything money grab-like about something you can literally pay a dollar or less for to get access to a bunch of DRM free games..but ya know what can you do I guess.

    Let's hope my computer survives this post...

    Dungeons of Dredmor and the source code to the Introversion games just got added to the bundle.

    Dredmor has been the one game that I can't put down. The first time this has happened in years. If you get the bundle, you'll love this game the most.

    So apparently you're against humor and nerd references too.

    I can't stand roguelikes either, but this game is challenging, and charming enough, and most importantly, IT'S NOT MADE OUT OF FUCKING ASCII CHARACTERS. ;P

    My rabid need to avoid roguelikes has made nerd life hard, but I feel my suffering has not been in vein.

    I dropped $9 on Darwinia retail boxed alone. Great game. The bundle is yet another Humble bargain.

    And I'm just the opposite. I much enjoy roguelikes, but I couldn't stand Dungeons of Dredmore.

    Those bundles aren't special anymore. They somehow managed to do it to often, especially with this and the last one starting out rather "medium". It's such a great idea, they maybe should keep it more special.

    I think quite the opposite actually. I am a bit biased, truth be told. I adore this model of distribution. The more the better.
