Humble Daily #4: Indie 8 Re-Bundled

Returning to their roots with day four of their 14 days of bundles, Humble has decided to give people a second chance at a collection of up to eleven games from the Humble Indie Bundle 8 that happened…oh, about a year ago it looks like, so this is sort of an anniversary celebration. I personally like supporting indie developers, and even though I already own two of the games I decided to buy this bundle (if you want a copy of Thomas Was Alone or Little Inferno and you don’t want to buy the bundle, send me a note as I have an extra key to give away – first come, first serve basis). Here’s the complete list of games, in alphabetical order this time:

• Awesomenauts (78%, 08/2012): 6-player MOBA
• Capsized (80%, 04/2011): 2D platformer
• Dear Esther (75%, 02/2012): Interactive story that’s more art than game
• English Country Tune (~77%, 11/2011): Cerebral puzzle game; beat the average price
• Hotline Miami (85%, 10/2012): Top-down 2D action (with lots of blood and death); beat the average price
• Intrusion 2 (80%, 06/2012): Action platformer; beat the average price
• Little Inferno (68%, 11/2012): Puzzle game involving fire – lots of fire
• Oil Rush (67%, 01/2012): 3D hybrid RTS/Tower Defense game; beat the average price
• Proteus (80%, 01/2013): An exploratory “experience game” with no clearly defined goals; beat the average price
• Thomas Was Alone (77%, 11/2012): 2D puzzle-platformer with minimalist graphics, good voice-over, and a fun story
• Tiny & Big: Grandpa’s Leftovers (75%, 06/2012): 3D platformer with graphics similar to Borderlands (sans violence); beat the average price

As you might guess given this is a revival of an indie bundle from a year ago, all of the games are at least a year old, but given these indie games are more about the experience than cutting edge graphics, they’re still worth a look. And as usual, your donation can go to charity, the developers, or Humble Bundle.
