Last time I tried to check up on it I discovered that the Beamdog forums were gone because they went all in on Bioware nostalgia, so I gave up.

Heaps of stuff for $30. You can give proceeds to ACLU entirely, if you like.

That indie pack is ridiculous! Bought it and although I've played Meat Boy, VVVVVV, and Guacamelee already, was wondering what in here is worth trying? Witness, Stardew and Day of the Tentacle Remastered are definitely must plays. But I don't know much about the others. 2048 looks kinda neat too and the Mushroom game premise sounds intriguing.

Should've been called Eurojank: The Dollaring bundle.

You hafta admire the tenacity of those Pug developers tough. The ambitious initial title, the powered up sequel, and then the unprecedented (well, highly precedented) move to 3D, and finally taking the franchise into space. INSPIRING.

some of the games aren't actually that bad though, when you factor in you're paying less than ten cents for them, a few have some kinda basic throwback mechanics that can be amusing for twenty minutes or so

monster puzzle is kinda interesting, sometimes you get decent rip offs like i think this has a FTL rip-off somewhere, i love tower defense and there's usually one or two of those

seeing way and way more phone ports vs straight eurojank though (let alone QUALITY eurojank like Marlow Briggs or Garshasp)

ampersand is hilariously garbage, even for a wipeout clone phone port :lol

Indie bundles have been really garbage lately, most are just scraping the bottom of the Steam barrel [or the weird junk that's collected under the barrel] with occasionally one semi-decent game tossed in.

the indiegala guy apparently has some kind of steam sales data contact and then he hits up developers whose games have totally bombed so they can get some kind of return, often convinces them to patch in trading cards which doubles bundle sales

most every other bundle out there is recycling the same set of games as half their bundles or more because i assume those devs are going to them with tons of unsold keys

plus then there's 1C which apparently operates its business as a game bundle company now :lol

Humble Bundle is about the only place non-European publishers will really partner with, though Warner seems to work with Bundle Stars quite often

It's funny to look at old bundles and see the desura keys, Valve kinda killed them off by letting everybody onto Steam.

Wow, I had no idea at what happened to them:
Quote
On July 10, 2013, Linden Lab announced that they had acquired Desura.[18] The service would continue uninterrupted for current customers and the team and technology become a part of Linden Lab. After acquiring Desura, Linden Lab changed their Terms of Service to include the wording that they have future rights to use and adapt content from their virtual citizens. Speculation exists as to whether the acquisition of Desura is tied to this change in the terms.[citation needed]

It was announced on November 5, 2014 that Linden Lab had sold the Desura service to Bad Juju Games.[19][20] Bad Juju later filed for bankruptcy in June 2015.[21][22] The Desura service went offline on March 19, 2016, but came back on March 29.[23] Desura went offline again September 2016, and has remained disconnected.

As of October 28, 2016, the desura.com home page shows the following message: "OnePlay has recently bought the Desura and Royale assets from Bad Juju. We are working hard behind the scenes to relaunch your favorite indie gaming platform." The change in ownership news is dated October 21, 2016.

I had totally forgotten about Desura. I only had a Desura account because you had to jump through hoops there to get Steam keys for bundle games that had been greenlit. #PartOfTheProblem

I'm kinda interested in the cam studio sim just out of curiosity of an unique theme for a sim game, but too embarrassed to ever have those games in my steam library.

The Sega bundles' cool but I have everything in it already. There's a book bundle for travel stuff though that I'm gonna jump on.

Yeah, that's the first one that has been pretty tempting. But I'm sure the Long Dark and Quantum Break alone will be in the $12 range and I don't like RTS and mystery boxes to burn money on the others. :doge

Yogscast is doing an Advent Calendar-themed bundle, where the $35 tier unlocks a raft of games, revealed each day (I said "ADVENT"), and ALL the money goes to charity.

Highlights include:
Headlander
Rust
Games Workshop's Vermintide
Games Workshop's Chainsaw Warrior
Endless Dungeon
…a slew of other stuff and 11 more titles to be revealed.

There are some crap titles in there, and a bit of it are premium boosts for F2P games, but there's always that one compartment in the Advent Calendar that's a Brazil Nut or a goopy chocolate where you can't determine the syrup flavor and feel slightly queasy afterwards.
