HIB bundles are pay-what-you-want and all games are DRM free as direct downloads for PC, Mac, and Linux. Steam keys are included with purchases of $1+. There is one Steam key for the main bundle, one for beating the average, and one for future bonuses.

Soundtracks are included for all except Vessel. Dustforce, SPAZ, Shatter, and (soon) Torchlight are redeemable on the Ubuntu Software Center.

Remember, you can always add money later if you're not sure that you want to beat the average now. The average when you first pay is the one you have to beat, even if the price is higher when you decide to. Future bonuses should be given to all who purchased the bundle up to that point, regardless of price paid, but people who buy in after any future additions may have to beat the average to get them.

Games:
  • Rochard
  • Shatter
  • Space Pirates & Zombies
  • Torchlight
  • Vessel

Beat the average to get:
  • Dustforce
  • BIT.TRIP RUNNER*
  • Gratuitous Space Battles*
  • Jamestown*
  • Wizorb*

* Bonus games. If you purchased the bundle prior to 10 AM PST on 9/25 you get these games regardless of price paid

Was going to buy this for the bonus games (hoping to be able to gift them) and then I realized I had already bought it. Pretty positive one of the bundles coming out around Halloween will have Amnesia as part of it so I'm holding off buying that on its own

Oh, that would be so cool! :bouncy:
Are you simply guessing by the fact that usually other bundles came out around Halloween and similar holidays, or maybe are there already some dates for other bundles to be launched in the near future?
Sorry if that's common knowledge, but I've discovered the bundle-mania's joy only lately and I'm still researching news and information :)

It's a guess IMO. You're best bet is hoping someone like steam or amazon has a Halloween sale and its included.
 
[quote name='BernardoOne']Steam will have a Halloween sale, and im 100% sure that Amnesia will be on it, 75%off[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I've searched a bit more and discovered that last year this was indeed the case: Steam did an Halloween sale with Amnesia and a slew of other "scary" titles... there is hope, then! :applause:
 
[quote name='CheapLikeAFox']I really doubt Amnesia will be in a bundle, but as others have said it will likely be $4.99 around Halloween.[/QUOTE]
Amnesia was in the Humble Bundle V, I wouldn't be surprised seeing it again in a future bundle.
 
[quote name='pizzaflavoredpudding']Amnesia was in the Humble Bundle V, I wouldn't be surprised seeing it again in a future bundle.[/QUOTE]

It might end up in a Steam bundle (direct purchase from Steam), but I doubt it'd be in a typical indie bundle. Humble Bundles are an exception, I doubt we'll ever see Shank or Bastion in another bundle again either..
 
[quote name='louiedog']bonuses are up[/QUOTE]

Not too bad. Overall this bundle didn't live up to #5 but not too bad. Wizorb and Jamestown look interesting.
 
[quote name='pizzaflavoredpudding']Amnesia was in the Humble Bundle V, I wouldn't be surprised seeing it again in a future bundle.[/QUOTE]

That's my point, it's already been in the only bundle I ever see it being in.

That sucks I missed out on the shank one :whistle2:(
 
[quote name='mikespit1']Anyone willing to trade me Torchlight 2 for my bonus games code? I can toss in a little extra if need be.[/QUOTE]


Yes, if you throw in $14.99 extra.

Even if you disregard the fact that a lot of people have most of the games that come with that key, pretty much everybody who is clicking on this thread already bought the bundle, so they've already got that key.

You'd have better luck waiting until the bundle is over and hoping that somebody missed it. But even then, it's a long shot.

How can you tell? More than half the games that have been in an HIB have shown up again as bonuses in later HIBs. Halloween sounds like a good time to me to reprise Amnesia.

Maybe Klei will have an awesome bundle in the Steam winter sale. Mark of the Ninja is pretty great from what I've played so far.

It's just a guess. Based on the Penumbra series and it's lone bundle appearance. I could be wrong. But Halloween is probably when Amnesia sees a boost in sales so I don't see it.
 
I now own four copies of Wizorb; first one is from the psn for my vita, next was a steam trade, third was a kickstarter bonus and now I have it for the humble bundle.

Anyone add the bonuses to steam and can confirm or deny that Jamestown is just for the game and doesn't include the DLC like last time?
 
Sorry, I shoulda been more clear. I am pretty sure that at some point around Halloween Amnesia will be available cheap, either as part of some Halloween themed bubdle or by itself on Steam, but regardless at this point its almost certain that it end up cheap within the next month + a week

I don't think it came with the DLC in HIB 4. I don't have any DLC on my account and according to the Steam registry both bundles have the same included items with no listing for the DLC.

Thanks, just trying to see if there was any reason to add this my steam library but I own everything already.
 
The only game i wanted from bundle #5 was Limbo, i'm thinking of buying this bundle but no game is really pushing me over to buying it yet.. They all look interesting but i'm afraid i won't be into them.

That is what I would call an impossible trade. See, everyone that bought the bundle have the bonus, even if they payed only 1$ And even now, nobody would trade a 15$ new released game for a bundle that they can get now, with all the games, bonus and BTA, for about 6$

DLC wasn't out when it first debuted in the HiB. I picked up the DLC on the steam summer sale. I'd also guess that it does not include the DLC, since they would have to port the DLC to Linux.

I remember the guy behind Issac responding to questions of the Issac DLC (not) being ported to Linux. He said the the HiB guys did the Linux port for him, and that basically he didn't have a clue how to even build Issac for Linux (even though it is basically a wrapper on the flash game).

I'd like to think that the Jamestown crew was more responsible, but I don't see much point in putting extra effort into the "freebie". Besides if people like it they'll pickup the DLC on steam. Win-win.

Oh I wasn't aware that was available for PC too. Figured I'd have to wait for an xbla sale lol. Thanks for the heads up.

It was only announced within the last couple of days. It comes out on October 16th or at least sometime that week if I remember correctly.
 
I was going to pass on this bundle since I had most of the games already, but the inclusion of Wizorb pushed me over the edge.

For anyone on the fence it's not really a big investment to give these games a shot. If you don't need Dustforce then you can pay as little as $1 or even less than that if you don't care about Steam keys.

You won't get the bonuses now either if you pay less than the average at this point, however getting 5 games for $1 or less is still a great deal.

Torchlight is very similar to Diablo and runs on even older and low end PCs. I think it's a game that most people can enjoy. The others are great too and rated really well.

Seriously, anyone even remotely thinking about this bundle that doesn't already have these games shouldn't hestitate.

If you give a little and then find you really like the games you can always add more to your donation later. There's very little risk.
 
I actually had most of these games on my Steam wishlist so I decided to beat the average to get everything. I'm irritated that I forgot to make my purchase yesterday before the bonus games were added but $6 for 9 games (already own SPAZ) is more than fair.
 
I was debating whether or not to get this since I only needed Dustforce and Vessel, but they went and added Wizorb! I missed out on getting this with Wizorb at a low price. I have quite a few of the previous bundles that I won, if anyone wants to trade the BTA for a few. I've got HIB 1/2/Frozenbyte/4 all looking for a good home.
 
[quote name='vantheman']Where do I get the steam key for the bonus games?[/QUOTE]

Same place that you got the first key.

On your bundle key page near the top there's a section for Steam keys. You should be able to sign in at the top of the humble page or follow the link that they emailed you.

You're right, thanks, i will beat the average.. the only reason i was hesitating is i wasn't sure if all of them worked on a mac, that and also i don't play games a lot but it's good to have some just for entertainment when times are boring.

Warning, Vessel still hasn't finished being ported to Mac/Linux apparently.
 
[quote name='thundarr']So how many of these do activate on Mac (and have pad support)?[/QUOTE]

All except Vessel have a Mac version right now. Vessel's port should be available soon.

rofl that sucks, I'd have traded for HIB3 right away.
 
If you're one of those people who waits until the last minute to buy bundles, your time has come. There's less than an hour left to buy this bundle.
 
Final hour. Even if you've only got 30 cents in your paypal account you can still up your payment for the next 30 days or so after it closes, but you have to buy now.

I actually do have an extra HIB6 BTA that I'd love to trade for HIB 2 (want Cortex Command, I must confess) - PM me if you're interested.
 
[quote name='LazyTriangle']I thought Cortex Command was in HIB3 not in HIB2[/QUOTE]

It was in HIB2 which became a bonus for HIB3, so it was in both.
