The Humble Indie Bundle #2
Ah, yes, the Humble Indie Bundle #2. Every indie news and commentary site on the net is probably all over this right now. Well, except TIGSource, which only seems to update twice a month these days. But, nevertheless, I’m going to cover it as well, because this notable release, now in its second edition, is a god-send for those indies who only play freeware games and complain about prices all the time, and it’s a great deal all-around for its donation-focused payment system. So spread the word, y’all.
As for me, I’ve already purchased and played through Braid and have been meaning to pick up Osmos, and I remember messing around with Revenge of the Titans when IndieGames.com blogged about the beta back in May (holy shrike, has it really been that long?). And I feel like I’ve been reading about Cortex Command for years. Time to get playing and writing! This should generate a good deal of content here. So this a great boon for me, for all, a great boon indeed!
Now, hurry over to the Humble Indie Bundle’s site and snag your DRM-free copies of these exciting games! Oh, and you can funnel your payment to the developers, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the Child’s Play Charity, or any customized split among the three. There are about seven days left to grab this bundle. Buy it sooner than later so you don’t forget. Or gift it to somebody! This would make a gnarly present.
