Post The Humble Bundle
Group of indie games on sale for "pay what you want".

Quote:
The Humble Indie Bundle is a unique kind of bundle that we are trying out.

Pay what you want. If you bought these five games separately, it would cost around $80 but we're letting you set the price!

All of the games work great on Mac, Windows, and Linux. We didn't want to leave anyone out.

There is no middle-man. You can rest assured that 100% of your purchase goes directly to the developers and non-profits as you specify (minus credit card fees).

We don't use DRM. When you buy these games, they are yours. Feel free to play them without an internet connection, back them up, and install them on all of your Macs and PCs freely.

Your contribution supports the amazing Child's Play charity and Electronic Frontier Foundation. By default, the amount is split equally between the seven participants (including Child's Play and EFF), but you can tweak the split any way you'd like.


games are:
World of Goo
Aquaria
Gish
Lugaru
Penumbra overture

For my part, I can only say that you should do it, even if it's just for 1 buck. There are some really fun games in there that are definitely worth a look.

-World of Goo is a little gem - I think Satis has played some of it. Very neat.
-Penumbra: Overture is a heartstoppingly good FPS adventure/horror game. Not for the faint of heart, but extremely well done.
-Gish is pretty cool, nice art design, fun to play.
-Haven't played Aquaria but heard it's pretty good
-Never heard of Lugaro

In short: must-buy if you don't own any of these games.

actually, you have a choice of paypal, amazon or google checkout... so that means credit card support as well.
