Title: Indie Music Bundle
Post by: idolminds on Friday, November 25, 2011, 07:36:28 AM
Tunes! (http://www.gamemusicbundle.com/)

10 indie game albums, pay what you want with a $1 minimum (and they say don't feel bad about paying $1). However, pay $10 or more and you unlock 7 more albums!

But its today only! So if you want it, get on it!

Interesting way to go about the bundle business. I know Super Meat Boy and Binding of Isaac are awesome. There's also some names that I recognize from OW Remixes too. That's kinda cool.

You know. Whoever thought up the first Humble Indie Bundle did something pretty great. This must be the most success they've had getting smaller games out there on a large scale and it's cool that it sorta banks on consumer goodwill. I wonder how profitable it actually it. I know a lot of indie developers claim they're making games for people to play, but they gotta eat sometime too.

I think these bundles do pretty well, Humble more so than the others since they have the name recognition. Though various indie forums and such are now rumbling that it may harm indies in the long run as people even now are saying they won't buy indie games outside of a bundle. Sort of the "I'll wait for a Steam sale" thing where no one will pay full price anymore.

Still, you have to wonder if these folks would have bought the game anyways. It's a fine line, I'm sure.

Yeah, definitely. And I think this music bundle is a great idea because honestly I probably wouldn't have bought any of these, even though I enjoy the music.
