Humble Bundle Indie Pack #3 out now! Don't miss it!

[FREESTYLEkill3r]

New Humble Bundle Indie pack out! If you don't know what Humble Bundle is, it's this awesome pack you can buy from www.humblebundle.com for any price you want! Literally, anywhere from $0.01 and up! It comes with downloads to the listed indie games in the certain pack, along with a Steam key and a Desura key to activate all your games!

*Despite the misleading title, this is actually their fourth release ;D*

Just thought I'd let the community know if you don't know already! The pack will only be available for, I believe, only 6 more days, and then you can no longer get it, so pick it up now! Heck, pick all your friends up one too if they are too cheap! xD
Just bought my bundle, and downloading all my steam games now as we speak (though I already owned one of them, but who cares )

[If you're too lazy to go to the website to see the indie games this new pack comes with, these are the games:

-VVVVVV
-And Yet It Moves
-Cogs
-Hammerfight
-Crayon Physics Deluxe
-Steel Storm: Burning Retribution
*If you don't own Minecraft yet, this also comes with 2 free weeks of MC!*

Just thought I'd share it like I said,

When you first sent the link to me I thought you got hacked because I've never heard of Humble Bundle before. Then, I just went to the site (curiosity) and checked out the details. I figured out, why not pay 1 penny or w/e amount and get all those games. So I went ahead and "donated" a penny and got all those games.

FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT OWN MINECRAFT: If you pay 1 penny or whatever amount you want, you get all those games. ALONG with that, you get 2 WEEKS MINECRAFT FREE!!

If you don't have a credit card, make a paypal account and msg me. I'll give you a penny and you can get all those games!

Don't tell me you actually paid one penny for the humble bundle....dude, that's despicable....

 

[VP :3]

Dang, I'd love to get this, but I don't have a penny to pay.

 

[Liliana]

Linux people pay so much more for these
I'm probably not going to get this bundle either, though...
Nice to see Notch is still one of the top donators, supporting his fellow indie devs. Not Garry anymore, though.

O well, I had some extra change and I wanted to donate it, is there a rule that says "You can't donate 1 penny?" Nope.

But if you think that's "despicable" then that's your view, I couldn't care less.

Pay what you want.

Right from the site. I wanted to pay a penny, that's what I want to pay. And who knows, a penny might go a long way.

The only problem with that logic is that it actually costs them money to process your 1 cent donation as a transaction fee....not to mention the bandwidth you used to get the games...

After the fees and bandwidth used, you didn't even make a donation. That's why it's despicable. :\

But as you said, it's what you wanted to pay.

Nah, it costs them more than a penny for the Paypal fee. Lol.

 

[FREESTYLEkill3r]

Well they do offer "pay what you want", so though it does cost them a bit of money for the people that only throw in a few cents for a donation, doesn't mean they aren't raking in cash from the people who do give a good donation! [What's awesome though, you can split up how you want to donate, between EEF, Child's Play, Humble Bundle and the Developers!]
It's my understanding that they have hit the $1,000,000 mark, profit wise. [Regarding the current and previous bundles]

Oh absolutely, they are raising a lot of money thankfully. It's for a good cause and phenomenal when someone pays even $5, 10, 50, etc. Being able to delegate who gets how much is a great idea b/c the devs need love too!

I know I made my point about the donation size in previous posts, but that really just makes me feel sad b/c it kills the spirit of what the Humble Bundle pay method is there for. :[

Nawhh, no fees for paypal when its 1 penny.

It really is an awesome package. I personally paid $10 for it and gave the majority of the money to the charity. I tossed in some for the other two options aswell. I can't stand when I see people paying 1 penny for it... but hey, it is pay what you want. -.-

 

[Orange_Kun!!!]

Yeah, just donated $10 w/ five of it going to Child's Play.

Another awesome thing I just noticed today, which I think is a great idea, is that they're offering the Humble Indie Bundle #2 for free if you donate more than the average Windows amount of $4.83.

Now it's potentially two bundles for 1! Great incentive to give more.

Too much greatness. ;_;

*Edit:* One thing I wish it would've let me do is gift Revenge of the Titans b/c I bought as a Steam daily deal just after the Summer sale. Almost seems like a small waste to not be able to let someone else experience it for free. :\

 

[FREESTYLEkill3r]

Update: You still have time to pick this up! I just recently donated more because now if you donate more than the average price (currently $5.08) it comes with the games from Humble Bundle #2!

*Don't forget to save some money to donate to our Legal Fund though ;D*

 

[Orange_Kun!!!]

Another game, Atom Zombie Smasher, has just been added to the Humble Indie Bundle.

That makes 12 games you get now for donating an amount higher (now at $5.43) than the average donation/purchase!

They've now hit 1.5 million in sales.

This just keeps getting better and better.

 

[FREESTYLEkill3r]

^ What Orange said, was about to post it. They just added Atom Zombie Smasher! Go pick this up!

 

[Captain Nighthawk]

Just got this, well worth it, if your going to purchase it at least have a heart and pay a reasonable amount.

Hey just curious, has anyone backed up the games by chance? Unfortunately over half of my recent paycheck went to take care of my auto loan & have to save the rest for rent. Is it possible for someone to give me their backups (if you backed it up of course) & we can possibly work out a method for payment. I really wish I could donate to this, but dont wanna give a copper coin cause that would cheapen the whole experience. If someone is willing to donate for me or give me a copy of their backups, I would greatly appreciate it! This is the 2nd time ive missed out on this opportunity (couldnt do it on the previous bundle either, which really upset me). Anyways, reply here or feel free to pm me if youre willing to help me out.
