Indie Love Bundle
February 13, 2010
Want a fistful of games without having to part with a fistful of cash? The Indie Love Bundle is here! Starting today and running through mid-day February 19th, you can grab six of last year's biggest indie releases for the massively discounted price of $20. Buying each title separately would run you over four times that amount, so it's like getting several really, really good games for free.
Here's what the bundle contains:
- And Yet it Moves
- Auditorium ...reviewed Feb. 2009
- Aztaka
- Eufloria ...reviewed Oct. 2009
- Machinarium ...reviewed Oct. 2009
- Osmos ...reviewed Sep. 2009
Mac owners will be pleased to know that And Yet it Moves, Auditorium, Machinarium and Osmos all have native Mac versions available, so the bundle is still a great deal for you. Stop not playing these games and get the Indie Love Bundle!
*hyperventilates*
It was very frustrating that I had to pay through Pay Pal, as their own website wouldn't let me pay from outside the US. How can I put a zipcode in if I don't have one with only numbers? Why include the country option at all if you make it so US-centric?
I live in Canada, how much will it cost, shipping and handling together? I hope someone answers before the due date runs out, because I want it, I want it, I want it!!!!
One other question, will it be shipped to the house, or will you get immediately online?
This is just my two cents, but shouldn't there be a *slightly* discounted mac pack? I understand that it's already a great deal, but I can't help but feel that windows is in favor. It seems a bit unfair that for the same price of $20, Windows users get 6 games, and mac users only get 4 games (and linux gets 1 game, but that beside the point). But then again, life isn't fair. :/
Wow, two of these I've played already -- Osmos and Machinarium, both excellent -- and the other four I'd been meaning to try out at some point. They really put together a great list! (Auditorium I've had as a bookmark since its beta demo, but felt the price was too high for a web-interface-only game. This will likely get me to purchase.)
Mac users get all 6 games, except 2 of them are Windows versions. You are free to gift them to someone you know, or play them using Parallels or Boot Camp.
And for Canadians (and other international customers), your credit card company will take care of the currency conversion for you at their own set conversion rate. You might want to contact your credit card company to find out how much it will be.
To GraemeSH, I believe these are game downloads they do not ship to your address. You just download them all. At least that is how it was when I bought the Machinarium/Samorost 2 pack together.
Do we need to download each game directly from each game's website? Only the demo versions are available, else I'll have to fill out my card information again to purchase the games I've already purchased... Where do we actually input our codes?
Hey all! Dain from Cipher Prime here. Couple of quick things:
Tom: The validation system came preloaded and we didn't catch that zipcode problem at first. Thanks for pointing it out! It's fixed now.
Also, when you purchase the bundle, you get a login to download your games. That login exists past the time of the bundle, so you won't ever lose your copies. You can also send copies of games you already own to family and friends.
Finally, Machinarium does have a linux version. It should be made available to our users fairly soon.
Thanks! Any problems or questions, you can email us at support@cipherprime.com
Oops! I have a Mac, bought the bundle, and carelessly clicked on one of the Windows games to activate. (I didn't make notes, and there was nothing to distinguish the platform on the activation page.)Didn't go any further to download, of course. Is it possible to deactivate it so I can then give it as a gift? There was no apparent way for me to undo my mistake.
