Codex 2012 Strap Yourselves In Codex Year of the Donut Codex+ Now Streaming! Dead State Project: Eternity Codex USB, 2014 Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag. Pathfinder: Wrath
So is Arma 1 and 2 worth $1? I heard it was buggy as hell five years after release.

Also, is it anything like the old Rainbow Six games?

No its a shitty CoD clone only without good graphics and fun, just ask Skyway.

If you pay enough to get the spearhead edition, 4$, you get 3 copies of the game, pretty sweet if you want to give your bros some keys to play with you

It looks like it can be a cool co-operative competitive shooter, though. Maybe two years from now.

Double Fine also have another Amnesia Fortnite: https://www.humblebundle.com/doublefine
Last one was pretty cool, there were almost daily video updates on the state of the games and whatnot and it resulted in a bunch of Prototypes one could play, some of which were developed into "full-scale" games:

Spacebase DF-9: http://spacebasedf9.com/
Prototype:

Game:


Hack'n'Slash: http://hacknslashthegame.com/ http://www.doublefine.com/news/comments/announcing_hack_n_slash_its_real_and_it_has_algorithms/
Prototype:

Game:


Autonomous: http://www.autonomousgame.com/


It's probably worth it for the videos alone, the documentary was the best part of the Double Fine KickStarter, but you basically get to decide on which games Double Fine is going to work on, there's a bunch of pitches here by various people and everyone has 3 votes for only pledging $1: https://www.humblebundle.com/doublefine

Picked: Derelict (Automatic pick for Oculus Rift :P), Dear Leader, What Could Go Wrong so far but not sure, Gone Astray and Mnemonic also seemed very interesting.
Headlander, Steed, Breach, Cat In a Box were 2nd choice, but can only pick 3 total.

Spacebase is the only game I'd want, but I'm not paying more than a dollar for this humble bundle, especially not to get the game in early access. They need to finish some god damn games, especially after the short ezmode non-adventure that was Broken Age.

There's two different "Humble Bundle" thingies by Double Fine.

This one has the games: https://www.humblebundle.com/weekly (Psychonauts, Costume Quest, Stacking, Brütal Legend) - which were actually their best games, The Cave and Iron Brigade both kind of sucked balls (the latter isn't even really redeemable in CoOp) and Broken Age is heavily meh and disappointing. Don't know about Spacebase DF-9 yet.

The other one is the Amnesia Fortnight Jam thingie: https://www.humblebundle.com/doublefine
Where you get to vote on like 4 game ideas where they split up into different teams and put together a short Prototype within a few weeks. There are a total of 29 game ideas with a short introductory 30 second video on that page to choose three from and the ones with the most votes get developed. The documentary episodes by 2 Player Productions that came out like several times a week were rather good last time around and even better than the Broken Age episodes sometimes and at the end of it all people get the finished Prototypes to play and judge/the results may develop into full games further down the line like the ones listed above which were part of Amnesia Fortnight 2012.

Actually, the episodes of the first Amnesia Fortnight thingie from 2012 seem to be for free on YouTube, give it a look: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIhLvue17Sd7ifSsJancSfPUVM8RnGwcl

I got the Indie Bundle when I was reminded it existed. This particular one is a pretty good deal since I haven't heard anything but good things about any of these games. I downloaded them yesterday but I'm involved in reading novels I got that I like, but I'll play them in a bit.

I played Dust: An Elysian Tale for over an hour today before I grew mind numbingly bored. 99% of the time I was bored running right across boring pretty scenery while mashing boring combos against boring retarded enemies and having my bored hand held. Plus you're stuck with an annoying sidekick ripped from one of the old Lunar JRPGs. Lame.
