Thanks D1ver!
I just showed my Girlfriend the trailers for all of the games. We'll be participating this time, missed out on the last one.

Cortex Command, Osmos and Revenge of the Titans have 64-bit binaries. Machinarium is a Flash game, so you can just extract the SWF file and play it in a 64-bit Flash player running in a 64-bit browser.

So, every game except Braid can be run 64-bit native.

Amnesia and all three of the penumbra games.

If you don't have the first Humble Bundle, then BUY THE SECOND ONE NOW and pay more than $7.39 USD. You'll get the first one free.

Details are at the Humble Bundle homepage.

I purchased part2 before the time extension for $20. Just read the email about the added games. Left me speechless. Here's a shot of the games added to the download screen ( Braid and Cortex Command are cut off).

Its a hell of a deal for 20 bucks..

disturbed1 · 12-22-2010, 08:30 PM

Still haven't played them. I already own Penumbra, and played beta demos for Revenge of the Titans (own Puppy Game's other titles), Aquaria, and Lagaru. Been addicted to Bullet Candy Perfect lately.

Wow, Amnesia looks great. I just ordered it and about to download. Always on the lookout for good linux-native games

Thanks for bringing Bullet Candy Perfect to my attention. At $2 for that game and another, I can't resist.

I ordered the 3 game deal from Charlie. Bullet Candy Perfect, Irukandji, and the yet to be released Scoregasm. Be sure to check out Space Phallus <NSFW!!!>

Another lesser known shooter game is AstroMenace. http://www.viewizard.com/astromenace/index_linux.php Even though it's free for Linux, I still forwarded the amount of the Windows version. Source code is available as well.

Does it make anyone else to proud to see the payment breakdown for the humble bundle?

Linux share ~= to Mac share, and Linux users are on average parting with twice the money of both Windows and Mac users. So much for that "Linux users wont pay for proprietary software" bs..

Agreed, i used to be very naughty while using WinOS. Now, after years of using linux, i realise exactly how much effort goes into any good software and should be rewarded.
