Crayon Physics is such a fun game. I might get this. Maybe.

I remember trying out a beta/demo version of this game a while ago. It was a lot of fun.

All the games from the 2nd Humble Indie Bundle are being added, provided you buy for above the average price, which is a pretty clever move, considering it pushes the average price up. Buy now, I guess!

I'm paying $12, right above the average Linux price.

Hopefully, when I get a clear window of opportunity, I can download the them all quickly rather then wait for several hours for each game.
Oh, Grev, I beat you by $3. :P

Another amazing Bundle. The guys at Wolfire really know what they're doing.

This is worth it for Hammerfight alone. :D

Atom Zombie Smasher became part of the bundle. I won't be surprised if they add the whole first bundle eventually.

I just bought it for $10. Not the highest, but it pushes the Windows average up at least. :D

I already owned Braid, so I can say that's awesome, but since I got the bundle I've been playing VVVVVV, which I can say is also awesome.

The Humble Frozen Synapse Bundle

Pay what you want. Frozen Synapse normally costs $25, but we're letting you set the price! The Frozen Synapse soundtrack is also included with your purchase (normally $6). Plus, if you pay more than the average price, we'll throw in the entire Humble Frozenbyte Bundle — a $45 value!
Games are
  • Frozen Synapse
  • Trine
  • Shadowgrounds
  • Shadowgrounds: Survivor
  • Splot (preorder bonus)
  • Jack Claw (prototype bonus)
Please note, while Frozen Synapse, Trine, Shadowgrounds, and Shadowgrounds: Survivor are very polished games and ready to play on all platforms, the Splot and Jack Claw bonuses are different.

Splot is still under development and will be added to your bundle once it is completed. Jack Claw is a prototype of a game Frozenbyte was developing, but canceled before completion.

The Mac versions of the Shadowgrounds games require at least Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6+) and Frozenbyte games will not run on Intel integrated graphics (used in many Windows netbooks / notebooks or cheap computer systems).
Also note that the purchase includes a Steam code, so you can add the games to your Steam library, rather than referring to your Humble Bundle account to download (or re-download) the games.

At the time of making this post, the average is $4.37, meaning if you just pay $5, you get the whole enchilada. Please note that this is subject to change. You have approx. 14 days and 3 hours left if you want to get on board.
