Included in this bundle are: Crayon Physics Deluxe by Klooniegames; Cogs by Lazy 8 Studios; VVVVVV by Terry Cavanagh; Hammerfight by Kranx Productions; and And Yet It Moves by Broken Rules.

    No it just means that one of you paid $10.38 and the other paid $10.40.

    Yeah, but I, for one, want them to keep releasing bundles. I made my tip hefty.

    I paid US$30 (AU$28.xx), twice as much as I paid for HB2 as I intend to play all of these games - the FPS in HB2 don't interest me.

    BTW, Crayon Physics fails on Debian Squeeze. My fix was to move the bundled lib32 directory to lib32.o and apt-get the standard system packages for the few libraries it then complains are missing, which are mostly SDL related. All that was left was an incompatible system libstdc++, so I re-created lib32 and copied the old version from lib32.o back. So far, it runs fine and is great fun.

    Well, if you feel something is not even worth $0.01, then you feel it is worthless to you, and if it is worthless to you, then you shouldn't care about not having it.

    When your operating system is free, it leaves with you copious spare funds to spend on games or yachts.

    Amazingly, the purchase prices directly correlate to the number of those games that were previously available for that OS.

    5 of these games were available for Windows prior to this bundle: And Yet it Moves, VVVVVV, Cogs, Crayon Physics Deluxe, and Hammerfight.

    3 of these games were available for Macs prior to this bundle: And Yet it Moves, VVVVVV, and Cogs.

    1 of these games was available for Linux prior to this bundle: And Yet it Moves.
