World of Goo is pretty neat, I like it. I still haven't tried Pneumbra (spelling?). It looks scary :X

Re: Humble Indie Bundle
Penumbra is very Resident Evil-like. Similar to Samarost it's got the mystery/puzzle aspect to it. Anyone else tried Lugaru yet, that game is funny as hell. Gish is amazing. Have yet to try Aquaria.Sanshin77 wrote:Penumbra is a bit scary, but I quickly got stuck, smashed everything I could and gave up :P I guess it's not my type of game :P You should try Aquaria though, it's amazing, probably my favorite...xiphirx wrote:I got World of Goo and Pneumbra (spelling?).

Re: Humble Indie Bundle
World of Goo just flickers when I start it.
I played a bit of Penumbra, great athmosphere so far!

Re: Humble Indie Bundle
I already had most of these, but used it as an excuse to get the pack for some friends who don't really play games.
Big news, it looks like these games are going open source! Lugaru and Penumbra are already, and Aquaria and Gish are pending. Some fun reading ahead for some perhaps?

Re: Humble Indie Bundle
What I'm wondering is if I purchase this now, will I get the source for gish and aquaria when their source is released?

Re: Humble Indie Bundle
Yes. It's Open Source which means there source code is available to the public, so it doesn't mean you have to make a purchase.JaxDragon wrote:What I'm wondering is if I purchase this now, will I get the source for gish and aquaria when their source is released?

Re: Humble Indie Bundle
Yeh, I just noticed that. Plan on buying the bundle before it goes out. Plan on downloading all source later tonight.

Re: Humble Indie Bundle
I know this is somewhat of a revival, but I feel it necessary. I have had the Aquaria installer on my desktop since I bought the bundle, and have kept telling myself "don't bother, it's just going to be another shitty game you're going to have to uninstall later". I was wrong. This game is absolutely insane. It's definitely the best of the bundle and please PLEASE if you have the opportunity to play it, do not pass it up.Sanshin77 wrote:You should try Aquaria though, it's amazing, probably my favorite...
