      A bit disheartening seeing the $0.01 ticks.

      whoa, you actually use 6 web browsers.

      IE, Firefox, Opera, Chrome, Safari… what's the 6th major one again?

        "LUNASCAPE is the world's first and only triple engine browser."

        Not too sure tbh, but this browser pretends to be IE, Chrome or Firefox depending on your settings and you can switch instantly.

      I initially laughed at this comment and thought it was funny…

      But now that I am trying to pay for it, neither my IE nor my FFox is working with Paypal.

    "Don't be stingy, the developers put a fair bit of effort in their games."

    As John McEnroe would say ….Are you SERIOUS???

    Like telling a pack of sharks to nibble gently…. ROFL

    BTW the stats on the site are interesting

    Average purchase:
    $4.13 Average Windows:
    $6.24 Average Mac:
    $12.00 Average Linux:

    Guess the old windows users are the stingiest….

    • cwongtech on 13/04/2011 - 08:08

      People who have enough cash to buy macs ar obviously rich. They should be twice as high as windows users cause thats how much macs cost compared to windows comps. So its mac users being stingy! :)
      Now this is on ozbargain, watch the averages alllll go down hah

      • Erkel on 13/04/2011 - 11:23

        All the claims about how mac users have more money then windows users are bullshit. If we go by your "logic", then windows users donations should actually be twice as much as mac because Alienwares cost at least twice as much as macs.

        The most likely reason why Linux and Mac users donate a bit more is due to the fact that games are very limited on those two OS, so they're more likely to appreciate indie developers who take their time to make their games work on those platforms.

        • illusionarybreeze on 13/04/2011 - 19:11
          +8

          Your first paragraph made no sense.

          While all macs are macs, not all non-mac computers are Alienwares. Not to mention Alienware computers are only a small portion of the non-mac market.

    • compound on 13/04/2011 - 13:00

      It was worth a try and was all done in good faith.

      A lot of kiddies are going to be entertained by this pack for their school holidays.

    • dmtdude on 16/04/2011 - 21:33

      well the only reason Linux averages at $12 is because thats what the one Linux user paid, if he had paid $1 then that would have been the average.

      • TimeOrMoney on 17/04/2011 - 01:30
        +1

        Because the one Linux user contributed 25% of the $600,000 raise so far…

  • 2stroksmokr on 13/04/2011 - 08:28

    Stingy as, to stingy to post how much I paid. Thanks ha

      • MHLoppy on 14/04/2011 - 00:20

        Very brave to post that here good sir, even OzBargainers, the stingiest online community I personally know think that's cheap, based on your negs.

        But if you look at it this way, 1 cent is better than nothing :)

        • Musti on 14/04/2011 - 10:50

          Yeah, it is better than nothing! I usually would have just pirated it. They should consider themselves lucky

          @Musti
          Stinginess may be a part of OzBargain, but piracy is not.
          You probably should change your comment before a mod sees it…

        • nubix on 19/04/2011 - 13:56

          Actually, no it's not better than piracy.

          The one cent you paid goes to whoever you paid through (Paypal/Google Checkout) in fees. They get nothing from your 'purchase'. However, they still have to pay for the data that you used.

  • theguyrules on 13/04/2011 - 08:31

    Just remember you CAN add donate more later on, which is what I plan on doing.

    //Just had to wait a bit

  • Aussiekev on 13/04/2011 - 08:37

    Ok I cant see what games are included (work computer not allowing access, but want to know if its worth me remembering this for later.
    Any chance someone could list the titles included.

    • soupiejr on 13/04/2011 - 08:41
      +4

      There are 4 games and 1 prototype included in this bundle.

      Games:
      1. Trine
      2. Shadowgrounds
      3. Shadowgrounds: Survivor
      4. Splot (Still under development)

      The prototype being developed by FrozenByte is called Jack Claw.

      Both Splot and Jack Claw is still not available for download yet, but will be made available to you once it's finished, if you buy this bundle.

      Excellent value, simply for the fact that you can specify what you want to pay for it. Trine by itself is worth the whole bundle, IMHO.

      • ryang on 13/04/2011 - 08:44

        Both Splot and Jack Claw is still not available for download yet, but will be made available to you once it's finished, if you buy this bundle.

        Pretty sure that Jack Claw is available after purchase, but it requires an Xbox 360 controller to actually play it… Kind of limiting that's for sure.

        • 2stroksmokr on 13/04/2011 - 08:48

          Yup thats true, thank god I have one.

    • ryang on 13/04/2011 - 08:42

      Please note, while 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.

      I'm guessing that "Frozenbyte" is the developer of all of these games, unlike other bundles which included different developers.

  • theguyrules on 13/04/2011 - 08:37

      Its not asking you to add funds. read the message carefully. its offering you to buy now then charge later.

    You guys giving 1 cent should be ashamed. I know ozbargain is full of cheap skates, but 'free' games for charity and only giving a cent is pathetic. Atleast give a dollar ffs.

    • MHLoppy on 14/04/2011 - 00:24

      One problem that they had before was piracy of the games since they were DRM free, so they made a whole page dedicated to it and said they would be happy for people to purchase the bundle for 1 cent, since they were well within the boundaries by doing so and they preferred having 1 cent rather than nothing.

      http://blog.wolfire.com/2010/05/Saving-a-penny----pirating-t…

    • Telios on 18/04/2011 - 19:33

      Damn right, if you can't afford atleast $5-10 for great games, then you must be poor, so you're probable not working and have plenty of time to try coding your own game and realise HOW FREAKING HARD IT IS.

  • Scratch2k on 13/04/2011 - 10:28

    Good deal, I already own Shadowgrounds and Trine so the amount I pay will be relative to how much I already shelled out for those.

    I think the amount Linux people are paying is related to their surprise and gratitude that someone is actually making games which run on their platform, Mac to a lesser extend.

  • padfoot07 on 13/04/2011 - 10:48

    I love these games!

  • Tilduke on 13/04/2011 - 11:00

    Shame that the three games available now are all pretty similar. Would be better if it had a bit of variety like previous bundles.

  • gobsmax on 13/04/2011 - 11:38

    For those on limited downloads…

    Trine = 663.5 MB + Soundtrack = 115.9 MB
    Shadowgrounds: Survivor = 1 GB + Soundtrack = 71.7 MB
    Shadowgrounds = 834.3 MB + Soundtrack = 136 MB
    Jack Claw = 297.3 MB + Source = 2.7 MB + Editor & Assets = 488.6 MB

    • daydream on 13/04/2011 - 16:32
      +2

      Just to clarify for Windows Version:

      Trine = Game 663.5 MB + Soundtrack 115.9 MB = Total 779.4Mb
      Shadowgrounds: Survivor = Game 1GB + Soundtrack 71.7 MB = Total 1.07Gb
      Shadowgrounds = Game 834.3 MB + Soundtrack 136 MB = Total 970.3
      Jack Claw = Game 297.3 MB + Source 2.7 MB + Editor & Assets 488.6 MB = Total 788.6

      Great concept and offer. Esp with the ability to control where the money goes (incl charity). Can't believe some can't (won't?) spare the cost of a Big Mac for the enjoyment they get from this bundle…

    Damn I still haven't finished the games from the old Humble Bundles.
    I couldn't finish Penumbra yet, too scary T_T

    When I was playing it with sound up high and lights off, and I moved the barrels infront of the door near the start then the wolf thing burst through I fooking shat myself!

    Especially playing it on HARD, you can't kill anything so you spend all your time hiding and listening to demon/breathing sounds!

  • leonheart1 on 17/04/2011 - 14:50

    I read somewhere that they actually lose money if people pay them less than $1 on Paypal or something.
    If this was true, they should restrict people who pay less than $1 to use a different method such as bank transfers so they won't lose money.

    • auna on 17/04/2011 - 17:02

      If I remember correctly, they just don't get any money from them. They don't lose money.

      • finance on 19/04/2011 - 11:22

        oh that's cool, thought they would still get charged the 30cents fee!

      • Hintswen on 21/04/2011 - 11:23

        I've always heard they still get charged the fees :S

        • nubix on 21/04/2011 - 12:06

          They aren't charged but the use of their infrastructure still costs them money.

          The problem with restricting the price is that it won't really be 'pay what you want' anymore.

        • leonheart1 on 22/04/2011 - 13:54

          Not restricting the price you pay, but restricting the options you have depending on how much you pay.
          So third parties like Paypal can't rob us all blind when raising funds for a charity.
