Good eye. It's fixed now.
 
Wow this is bad timing. They'll get totally eclipsed by the Steam Summer Sale I would imagine.

I actually have Girl With a Heart of and played through it all (rare for me these days) on Android. I don't imagine too many people have played it, but it's a decent adventure game that isn't so much point and click as it is choice and consequence and lots of dialog. The story was interesting enough and it throws a lot of different dilemmas your way.

One thing though is that I don't know how much replay value it has. There's multiple endings but the game autosaves on its own so you can't access it and load a prior save you can just continue. Once you make a choice you are stuck with it unless you play through the whole game again, which mostly plays out the same.

Still, if you can get it dirt cheap and like adventures games and stories it's a decent enough game.

Yeah, they fixed it. When the bundle launched, you only had to pay a penny.
 
Wow, the bundle features a good assortment of games. I bought it for Cardinal Quest, and I get the others as a bonus. Loves me some indie bundles. :D
 
Cardinal Quest I like quite a bit...esp on my android phone (got it from an android bundle). Most of these games I don't really want but the girl one looked very interesting. Got it cause of that and Cardinal Quest in essence.
 
What I love about these bundles is that I can grab a bunch of games, throw them on a thumbdrive and put them on my laptop... and actually play them. I feel like a cool kid grabbing next gen games for cheap prices, but my laptop just can't run them. Gotta love low requirement indie games!
 
22 hours and 14 minutes until this deal is extinct. Also, dinosaurs.

That's a fair amount, although it should be higher. I like seeing people give to independent game developers earnestly looking to make an impact on the gaming industry. From Bethesda to Square, nearly every company started out like these developers did, and just because they don't have a multi-million dollar budget doesn't mean people should ignore their efforts. After all, the $60 people spend on EA Sports' "Abbreviation Rehash 2013" could have gone to average people who are providing several quality gaming experiences instead of corporate big-wigs with yachts and summer homes. And goddamn Cliffy B.
