gamoid: @humble You're doing excellent work. Any chance this bundle will get a Steam serial, too?
humble: @gamoid Valve has been contacted, I am optimistic
Good Old Games cleared me out quite a bit, so I only contributed 5 dollars.
Then again, I already own 3 of them. (two i got from another indie bundle! XD)
Quit whining, Dashing, and just add Machinarium already.
Also, where's Machinarium, Dashing? Really, come on now!
See? SEE?!
The bundle has four games? Great.
i am not sure about the games, any description
Well, although it hasn't been listed here, 'Machinarium' is an excellent little adventure game. I've only really just started playing (about a week or two ago, but I've unfortunately gotten stuck), but I can tell you now that it's innovative, it's clever, it's challenging, and it's pretty damn cool artistically.
As for the others, I haven't played them yet.
Cortex Command is odd, I haven't played enough yet
If I remember correctly, Machinarium, The unlisted one here, is a rather strange adventure game
Braid didn't work correctly, I'll have to try it under different settings
and I haven't tried Osmos yet.
Haven't played Cortex, Titans, or Osmos.
How about now for a dollar?
Not sure why it isn't listed in the first post, but Machinarium is in this bundle, and it's a mostly traditional point-and-click adventure game. It differs a bit from most adventures in that you can only click on things that are within arms' reach of the character, so you can't just hover the screen looking for hotspots: you have to walk around a bit to explore. It's also rather linear. I've only played through the first few screens, but the puzzles are pretty enjoyable.
Also, I'd pretty confidently recommend Braid to most adventure fans. Maybe the most reflex-phobic players won't enjoy it, but in the context of this bundle it's probably worth giving it a play anyway. There is some rather light platforming action, but you can always rewind whenever you die, so there's no serious risk: the real gameplay is the puzzles, and the puzzles are pretty fantastically frustrating mind-benders. A lot of those "quit, and then go back to it a few days later" puzzles, like in the old days
This is seriously how I get through most of HalfLife 2. Now if only Braid would work on my computer.
Are all jerks.
Osmos starts out relaxing and easy but even though the music stays relaxing the levels will get insanely hard later. I am not willing to ever start this piece of turd ever again. A challenge is a challenge but this game is just insane. And not the good way of insane like Super Meat Boy. Random levels are random get lucky and win or get an impossible level over and over.
On Steam-keys: I already own all the games in the bundle that are available on steam.
I kind of wish I had bought the first bundle though. The key for that one would make an excellent X-mas-present now.
Woah woah woah! Machinarium is there!? I was going to not get this because of only four games. Why would Dashing lie to us so? I demand an appology! Not only did I almost miss out on FIVE games, but a great adventure game too? Man. Why would someone leave out an amazing adventure game like that?
(He's going to kill me in my sleep, now, right?)
We are rather bashing him here now, aren't we?
No, the jerk is you, for omitting Machinarium. This is a forum full of adventure game fans, what were you thinking? O_o
Anyway, so far I've only downloaded Braid, the download speed was pretty low yesterday. Looks like HIB2 is a success.
Don't worry man, it is.
I chortled heartily
i am going to get it for a dollar, but there has got to be a catch to the name you price thing
