Any chance of getting the Linux versions of the bundled games that have them (Caster, Orczz, WFFF, etc.)?

Or at least Desura keys in addition to or instead of Steam as an option?

Hi there, I asked the devs with Linux versions in the bundle, they said that those versions are included.

Bundle page is going to get revised soon, all these info like games that give additional keys for Linux, Steam, Greenlight, etc. will be displayed as icons for ease of use.

As for the Desura keys, I just replied the same question only 5 posts above, that's not going to happen at the moment.

Note that you do NOT get a Steam key for Caster in the current bundle, contrary to the OP. You only get a key for Hegemony Gold. You do get a key for Strategic War in Europe, but it does not appear to be a valid Steam key.

Hmmm, interesting. There seems to be a disconnect between what is stated here and what GG is actually doing. I don't think it's intentionally misleading, just probably some miscommunication or delay there.

Well, SWiE isn't a Steam game at all, as it turns out. Just Greenlight.

I do wonder why it's noted when games are on Greenlight though, as it's largely irrelevant since you don't get a key and it's not exactly an accolade regarding the game's quality or anything like that.

Well, a lot of Devs have indicated that if their game gets greenlit they will retroactively give Steam keys to any previous buyers. That doesn't always hold true and they are under no obligation to do so, but so far most have come through with their promises.

If I'm not mistaken, the OP said that this was the case here.

Surprised about the Caster key, but it's no biggie for me, as Caster has no achievements or other special Steam-related content.

Well shit. The lack of a Caster Steam key is a bummer. Didn't look at this thread before I bought the next bundle unfortunately.

SPAZ (from the first bundle) is listed as the "Indiefort Version." Anyone know what that consists of? It might just be the game and the soundtrack, but I'm not sure.

hmm. missed the first bundle. not much hype on these it seems

I reached out to the Caster's developer about this issue, GamersGate staff is also informed. Hopefully we'll get this sorted soon enough.

The ability to buy previous week's bundles is in the works alongside many other changes to the bundle page, hopefully it'll turn out soon enough.

Oh, cool! Thanks for all your support on this, hopefully the bundle will do well for you and get you a good boost on Greenlight!

Problem is fixed

By the way echoMateria thanks for putting your game in another bundle (Bundle in a Box) that actually will give out Desura keys. I grabbed it there.

Glad to be of service.

If you bought BiaB, you can vote for the Indie Dev Grant they have from the bottom of the page that you see your keys. Amongst the contenders our next release 99 Spirits can do with all your voting help.

Neat! I'll keep taking a look at it on my Gamersgate page and snag it when they add 'em! Thanks!

Edit: Oh, just saw your link above. I'll throw a vote at 99 Spirits for ya too.

Well I just decided to pick up week 2's offering before it expired. To my surprise, I received a $1 discount on the purchase even though I skipped week one. After coupon, I only paid $2.80 for it.

Not sure if this was a glitch, or if they've changed the way the bundle works.

Week 3, the Oxygen Bundle is live now:
Alien Hallway (STEAM)
Bridge It (Greenlight)
Eryi's Action (Greenlight)
Terrorhedron (Greenlight)

Pretty sure that's a glitch. Which they should fix. Otherwise they'll be giving out a ton of bundles come week five.

Just bought it. This decreasing price made it very easy.
