Drakhyrr: You don't have to pay the moment you make an order. When GamersGate redirects you to some page to put payment details (such as PayPal), you can just leave it. The game will be on your order history (accessible on the menu) as pending, and from here you can access the payment system again. You have up to 2 weeks to pay before it gets auto-cancelled.

Of course, you can't play before paying, but it's a way not to miss their sales when you're out of money.
It is also a way to safely deal with region locking. You go through a proxy somewhere, but do not feel safe inserting your credit card details / PP code, so you just place the item in your order page. Close down the browser / clear the catches, or whatever the cool kids call it, go to GG as you normal would, and the region locked game is sitting there in your basket waiting to get paid.

Steam has Confrontation on sale 50% off. Please remember that, though no longer mentioned in the store page, this game shipped with HorriDRM that had 5-machine activation limit. I'm not sure if it got removed (Steam used to mention the DRM, it no longer does), but be aware it might be a goof on steam's part.

The games are:
Aurora

Out of those, I've only played Black Mirror, but found it to be a really good adventure game.
Good bundle, thanks!

Black Mirror is good. It had a great plot/gameplay/puzzles/setting......when I played it though I got to one bit and it crashed on me though so I never went back to it(Might've been when the days changed during the game/cd switched or something. I forget the exact details right now though.).

shadowmirage: I don't know if this has been posted already, but there's currently another indie pay-what-you-want charity type thing going on called Bundle In A Box. Lots of adventure games (including one good but hard to find interactive fiction adventure) are included:

Gemini Rue
Ben There, Dan That!
Time Gentlemen Please!
1893: A World's Fair Mystery
The Sea Will Claim Everything
+ Soundtracks

If you pay more than average (currently $5.81) you also receive:

The Shivah
Metal Dead

http://bundle-in-a-box.com/

Oh, and you're helping both the developers and supporting children with mental health problems by donating.
This is a good deal for helping charity and offering good games for cheap, and whatnot, but: I don't want the text adventure(Love em' usually, and I might like this one if I gave it a shot, but I usually have limited funds and dislike paying for such games if possible as I can find free examples of similar games that are just as good if not better in many regards....plus I have that backlog to consider.).

I also don't want the one game "Sea will claim everything" for some of the same reasons as for the text adventure and also because it looks a tad sloppily drawn.(If that makes any sense.)

Plus one of the games I DO want is only if you pay more(Metal Dead)....and while I wouldn't mind paying 3 bucks or so for GR/Ben There, Dan That!, I don't see myself paying twice as much just to get Metal Dead.
Anyone know if Metal Dead is in any other more attractive promos(That I might like.) or what?

Well, if you only want Metal Dead, you can buy it for $4.99 from http://www.indievania.com/games/metal-dead

Not sure if it's a sale, although it's still fairly cheap.

I can personally recommend 1893 (the IF game). It has a fairly huge "world" to explore and a lot of detailed historical anecdotes. As well as an on-going mystery to solve.

Or to just print out the feature list from the website:

-Hundreds of locations on the fairgrounds to explore, as if you were really there
-Over 500 archival photographs illustrate the places you go and the people you meet
-Dozens of interactive characters to encounter
-Carefully researched and historically accurate
-Non-linear gameplay — you control where you want to go and when
-Challenging and unique puzzles
-In-game hint system
-Over thirty hours of gameplay

-1893: A World’s Fair Mystery also includes 3 PDF guidebooks:
-Instruction Manual
-Visitor’s Guide to the World’s Fair
-A Map of the fairgrounds

Sorry, didn't mean to sound like an advertisement XD.
