Yes, yet another indie bundle, but like the Humble Bundle, you can set your own price and donate to charity as well. The games only register on Steam, but that won't be a problem for most here. You get a key for each individual game, so you can gift whatever you do not personally want if you feel like it.

===============================================

Happy Hour guidelines:

*Happy Hour happens at random times: sometimes as early as 4 days after the bundle going live, but most often during the second week of sales.

Happy Hour! Double Gifts! During Happy Hour time New buyers for every gift purchase get a 2nd bonus gift for free (2x1)! All gifts are doubled! Remember to check 'IS IT A GIFT'! *If you have not purchased the current Indie Gala yet, you can buy two for one during happy hour

And if you are an early buyer the deal is EVEN BIGGER!

Yes! If you already bought the current indiegala bundle, you get 2 bonus gifts for free for every gift purchased ( 3 x 1 ) *If you have already purchased the bundle, but you did not purchase it in the first week, you can buy three for one

And if you bought it in the first week you get 3 bonus gifts for free for every gift purchased ( 4 x 1 ) *If you already purchased the current bundle and did so in the first week of the current bundle going live, you can buy four for one

Remember to check 'IS IT A GIFT' ! if you want to take advantage of Happy Hour. You have to check this also if, after purchasing a bundle for yourself with your own email address, you want another additional bundle for you. If you don't, transactions amount will sum on your original email account and you can upgrade your purchase, obtaining more bonuses if you previously didn't unlock it, or more galapoints.

REMEMBER: (Gift purchases are not upgradable and don't contribute to upgrade your personal account for unlock new content.)
***For Happy Hour, you MUST use the same e-mail you used when buying your first bundle, and you MUST check the gift option below the payment method. You have to buy again during Happy Hour to receive gift copies.

CAG Group Buy Hosting FAQ

Q: I see all of these CAGs hosting group buys for people. What's that all about?
A: It's a way for CAGs to help each other get the best deal. One person will buy the bundle during the first week, then they will buy four gift copies at the highest tier during Happy Hour. This person is referred to as the host. They then try to sell these to participants for a fraction of the price of buying the "beat the average" bundle individually, plus some extra to distribute the cost of the initial bundle purchase in the first week. The host gains money back, and the participants get the full bundle for a fourth of the cost. Everyone wins.

Q: How do I host one?
A: To host a CAG group buy, you must first purchase the Indie Gala full BTA (beat the average) bundle in the first week (this has been changed since the previous bundles). This will allow you to purchase four additional bundles for the price of one during a Happy Hour, as stated in the Happy Hour post above. Now, it does matter how much you initially spend, as you must purchase the full bundle in order to purchase full bundle four-packs during Happy Hour. Then, once Happy Hour starts, you buy a gift copy for the current "beat the average" price, which will be listed on the Indie Gala page. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK "IS IT A GIFT" TO GET FOUR GIFT COPIES.

Q: It's asking me for multiple e-mail addresses. What do I do?
A: Just skip that part. The links to the gifts will be added to your account page (which is another reason why you must always use the same e-mail address when ordering from Indie Gala). Most hosts will send out the gift URLs to their participants in a PM.

Q: Is it hard to do?
A: No, it's very quick and easy. Just keep track of which gift URLs you have sent to which people, and you will be fine.

Rush Bros would be better than Bad Rats or Cognition. At least I could give it to my kid, farm cards off it and play it multiplayer a few times

 
And the bonus game is....Shadows: Price For Our Sins Bonus Edition.

Anyone else starting to wonder if they're actually going to do a happy hour?

Pretty so-so bonus, hope it's soon. Also I emailed the Two Brothers developer for a possible Steam key since I bought it on GMG and it was capsule only, also bought it late December. No response so likely no key for me there....I did get one from the Retro Groupees 2 Bundle and will likely get 1 more which i'll give away if HH starts for this bundle.

 
I'm sure it won't be a popular bonus with most but I actually kind of wanted Shadows: Price for Our Sins. In a want it if I happen to get it anyway from a bundle I was already buying way, not a want it enough to buy it way, of course.

Oh well, it has been a pretty good run so far, for me at least. I can't stand hidden objects games, but I reached the 300th milestone in my library with this, so I got that goin' for me, which is nice...

I actually like this game being a bonus. Not a repeat so that's a plus.

A few things to note about HH:

1. They've removed all mention of HH now from their site. I mean they were slowly doing it before, but there's be at least one random place they still mentioned it. Just now I noticed it's not anywhere on the site so I don't know what that means.

2. They're stretching out these bonus games way longer than usual, probably to suck every last purchase out of the bundle at full price.

I don't know if that means anything or not. This sort of thing has happened before where they don't do HH and then even let the timer run out before doing another one of their ridiculous extensions and then doing HH, but who knows.

These guys wouldn't have the decency to tell anyone if they eliminated HH and they never respond to any HH related questions they get during bundles even though they get a ton on facebook and twitter.

If the bundle gets to a day left and still no HH, I'll post here and in the group buy thread so people can make the choice to purchase or not.

With Deadly Premonition it would still be a decent deal I would think.

I just wish Deadly Premonition would get rid of that damn memory leak bug...or whatever the hell causes it to slowly but surely drop the framerate a damn bit and then cause the thing to either CTD or freeze-up entirely. Don't care if it's official or a Durante-fix - it needs to be FIXED!

I lost like 30 minutes of gameplay b/c I didn't get to the next save-point. I'm not one to take games in fast, so - meh.

I'm new to the indie games bundles in general and this is the first time I've seen a "happy hour" so I want to make sure I've got this: If I BTA and check off my purchase as a gift they will send me 4 (I bought when they offered an initial lower price) sets of codes? I assume this is intended to be used a trade fodder/gifts for others? Would be useful if I had any luck trading around here. Anyone interested in trading keys from an older bundle for keys for this one? I wouldn't really care what bundle they are from as long as they are new to me.

 
I knew they wouldn't be able to resist. I think they were just removing most mentions of it from their page during non HH times so as to try to squeeze some more regular sales out since they clearly must know many group buys are going on and people wait for that.

@Chrono. For the best effect you have to buy one beat the average bundle during the first week since that nets you 4 free gift copies when you buy, and mark as a gift, during HH.

Most people just get in on a group buy with people who've done it before and organize one since it's kind of complicated if you're not familiar with it so it's just easier to grab it for $2ish from someone else.

It's interesting that this Happy Hour is running for a lower price than the ones in the last few (inferior) bundles, and for significantly longer.

 
Yeah, HH is here! But payment system is down for maintenance!  Once it is back up I'll start PMing folks.  Hoping the pricing remains the same because this HH will be the cheapest in a while if it does!

 
Can't wait for the HH copy from foxy. Looking forward to newest bonus game and also Tales of Blah Blah Blah. Love me them roguelikes...will likely decide what to do with another Two Brothers key and another Deadly Premonition.

I have a feeling that there will be a flood of Two Brothers keys since this is running at the same time as Groupees.

I'm pretty excited about this Gala. It's by far the best for me in quite some time.

 
Every time IG HH arrives, I think of this classic video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XeRgsAS5Eik

"Indie Gala is announcing a proposal to jack o--up the cost of a bundle during Happy Hour."

Nice this time they kept the price lower.

When I checked this morning, my countdown was at 9 hours, 30ish minutes. Odd how different folks were seeing different times.

I suspect those people are hackers.
They reset the timer back to 12 after that. I'm assuming the error was resetting the timer and it probably stuck to the original time they had planned.

 
I wanted this bundle mainly for Deadly Premonition. I had the hope that someone says there are patches that fixes the gamebreaking bugs. But it seems the game is very broken. I will only get very nervous trying to play it
