Hi all

Save this on http://slashdot.org/ and thought some of you may be interested.

The games are : World of Goo Aquaria Gish Lugaru Penumbra overture

http://www.wolfire.com/humble

Pay what you want, split any way you want between the developers and 2 charities.

No DRM. Downloads for Mac, Windows and Linux, with no limit on the downloads.

I have no connection to this other than being a happy customer

[Thain Esh Kelch]

Yeah, I just threw 40$ after the developers...

Not in coins, I hope. That frigging hurts!

This is a great deal! I paid $10 for 5 games that would have cost me at least $60-80 normally. Not to mention World of Goo and Aquarius are so original and fun I got so much more then I expected to.

I hope more people pay the developers what they're actually worth.  (I paid for most of them individually when they came out and they were easily worth that.)

Bah! Indie developers know they are in for a rough time!

I jumped on the band wagon and chipped in. Was worth it even if I do already have Penumbra

I payed a little just because i don't have money right now and because i do mostly for the charity and idea. Anyway World of Goo is super! I had Penumbra already.

I'd successfully resisted up to now, but then they added Samorost 2. Bastards.

Stroke of genius to add realtime stats to their web page. I added a couple extra bucks just to make sure the Mac users' average contribution continues to stomp the Windows users', and maybe creeps a little closer to the Linux users.

Deal ends today, I believe.

You're not wrong!
You've got 6 hours till the lines close. I'm sure it'd be lovely to see them break $1 million, they're not too far off...

They broke the million. Now Aquaria, Gish, Lugaru and Penumbra Overture go open source.

[Mister Mumbles]

Eh... wha? Those crazy indie devs. Plus, the bundle sale was extended for another four days.

[mindnoise]

I am delighted,

I will get this, too. Also I already have Penumbra ans Samorost 2.

And I also going to raise the Mac contribution mark a bit.

Aquaria and Lugau is already worth it.
