Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Your suggestions will be appreciated and seriously considered. And please feel free to inform me of any mistakes or inappropriate statements. Thanks.
Great OP, these bundles are becoming a little too much to keep track of now. I'm putting my money up for the Mojam when I get back from the store. Also, the Be Mine bundle is delayed monday at the earliest apparently.
I started to make a thread like this back in december when there were like 4 active bundles. Then my eyes started getting glassy after the 3rd copy/paste or so and I closed the window.
on topic post: apparently the be mine bundle launched AGAIN this morning and went down a couple hours later. how are these guys so clown shoes?
The Oxeye guys were awesome, and their game looks pretty fun!
I really like their game Harvest: Massive Encounter. They take some nice ideas and implement them into a fun take on the whole Tower Defense thing in a way that I haven't seen anyone else do. I think I'm looking forward to seeing what they come up with more than Mojang.
Wolfire game was named The Broadside Express and Catacomb Snatch Build #2 is available now.
I am playing something, but I really can't tell what I am supposed to be doing. bombs blow up walls, not sure what the (stoves?) are supposed to do. Also had it crash, but then again thats not really surprising. It's surprizingly well polished all around for the amount of time it was made in.
edit: ok, the 1st item is turret, you can lift it up and place it. the second is a coin collector, you pick it up and it drops what it has vacuumed, and the third is a bomb for the jeweled walls. interesting concept.
So I finally got through and picked up a Be Mine bundle. I had quite a few games from it already. So I was basically getting it for Beep, Sideways and Nikopol. Beep looks like it's going to be charming robot fun. Sideways is looking like it's going to be a fun ride. What a great concept for mixing up 2D and 3D platforming. I really enjoyed the opening two levels. Haven't looked at Nikopol yet, but I saw the movie a while back. The game is done by the same guy who did the movie and graphic novels, so I'm thinking I'm at least going to dig the total weirdness of it all.
Is this over? I've never missed a humble bundle before and never heard anything about this? Was it never advertised as much?
Unfortunately, it is over. We didn't got any email notice about this bundle either. It only lasted for 3 days and all raised money will go to charity. The three games can't be activated on Steam or any other platform.
@LewieP
With this Alpha Bundle, are you going to send people who bought it email updates when these 3 games reach development milestones? Personally I would really like that. (Could be an option you can unsubscribe from I guess)
I've been looking forward to Towns for a while, so bought'ed. The other two games look pretty interesting, too. A procedurally generated Fallout 3 with Minecraft graphics, and a cute co-op platformer? Sure thing.
Called IndieFacekick, hasn't started yet, but has a decent lineup. Booster Trooper, Dead Horde, Runespell Overture, Greed Corp, Sol Survivor.
Own 4 of those already and I'd say they were all pretty solid, so the bundle is actually pretty good, though it does have a couple repeats in it. No word on when it's launching, nor price points and Steam keys, but given a few of those are Steam only games it's safe to bet on it.

Updated. Thanks very much for the info. Hoping this will be an awesome bundle!
Great thread. I've often considered making one but I can't handle the crushing responsibility. I missed out on a few of the smaller ones (Indie games pack, 5 for 5, summer of love) and vow not to miss out again!
oh man, these indie gala guys are desperate to move up their number counter.
when you buy a bundle as a gift, they're giving you up to 3 extra gift bundles.

I think the problem with their bundle, at least for me. Is that every one of those games has already been in the humble indie bundle, which means a lot of people (like me) already have all of them.
I think the problem with the Indie Gala bundle is that they had a lot of games that were previously holiday achievement or 75% off games so they got bought/gifted. I don't think any of their games have been in a non-indie gala bundle?

We've been thinking about this. Not sure what we're going to do yet, but we'll probably think of something.

Well I ahve all of them, and I didn't buy any of them on steam, nor was I gifted them. So they came from some bundle, maybe not humle then. (There are so many they blur together.) but I generally dont buy many indie games outside of a bundle.
I feel really odd, in how I keep buying bundles never to try to games afterwards. I just have so little free time these days, but feel like I should support indie devs.
Oh well, I'll just skip a sandwich and no harm done in the end

Where can I find their game? On the HB Mojam page there's only a link for Mojang and Wolfire's games.
Fists of Resistance, it's still under developing.
PS: It seems the Humble Bundle Mojam is over at the front page, but you can still get the bundle here

There's also the little-known 5 for $5 bundle and the Indie Love bundles.
Aware of that bundle, however, games from this bundle can't be redeemed on Steam, I think this is why it was little-known...
While we will update information about this bundle on our Wikia pages.
Sure, thanks in advance, I think I would probably need your help in the future.
