Humble Indie Bundle #2 Now Offering Free Humble Indie Bundle #1
by Alice O'Connor, Dec 22, 2010 6:00am PSTThe brilliant 'pay what you want' Humble Indie Bundle #2 keeps getting better, as organiser Wolfire Games has now announced that you can receive the six games from the original Humble Indie Bundle for free.
All 180,00-odd customers who bought Bundle #2 before this announcement was made will have automatically received Bundle #1 for nowt. New purchasers, though, will need to spend more than whatever Bundle #2's average purchase price is at the time in order to receive Bundle #1. When this story was written, the average was $7.33 but surely you'd pay more than that for all those games and to help charity anyway, wouldn't you?
The Humble Indie Bundle #2 contains DRM-free versions of Machinarium, Osmos, Braid, Cortex Command and Revenge of the Titans for PC, Mac and Linux, which you can activate on Steam if you fancy. The original Bundle contains World of Goo, Gish, Aquaria, Lugaru HD, Samorost 2 and Penumbra Overture. It's the bargain of the year.
The Bundle is now due to stop being available at 6pm on December 25--though of course who could say for certain, considering how many times it's been extended.

Braid is a bit of an interesting situation in itself. I should play it with a clean slate, but it is apparently the "stereotypical indie game", with the story of Jonathan Blow developing it self-funded for about $200,000, and releasing on XBLA to "begin" the "indie games revolution", despite it already having a relatively rooted community in the open development world of the PC (but not a huge fresh audience of XBox dashboard users). I have a feeling that I might be okay with it, but I won't like it as much as I liked Aquaria.
FYI, the bundle contains the soundtracks of Machinarium, Osmos, and Revenge of the Titans. Buying the first bundle also includes the Samorost 2 soundtrack.
