Groupees (the makers of the Be Mine Bundles) is selling a "bundle", of sorts, where you can make your bundle and "PWYW" (with limits).

Link:
http://groupees.com/bab

The selectable games are:

Necrovision (PC Steam + DRM-Free)
Caster +OST (PC/MAC Steam + DRM-Free)
Diamond Dan (PC/MAC Steam)
Lightfish (PC/MAC Steam)
Ubersoldier 2 (PC DRM-Free)
Dark Fall: Lost Souls (PC Steam + DRM-Free)
XOTIC (PC Steam + DRM-Free)
Beep (PC/MAC Steam + DRM-Fee)
Sideway: New York (PC Steam)
P.A.M. (PC Steam)
Nikopol: Secrets of the Immortals (PC Steam)
The Ball (PC Steam + DRM-Free)

You must select at least 3 games, and pay a minimum of 3 dollars. 4 games go for a minimum of 3.75, and so on, with rising cost-benefit.

Many of these have been on the Be Mines, but you don't have to pick them. Also, they said it's not a replacement for the Be Mines, meaning Be Mine 3 is also coming.

This is a clever idea. I know nothing about any of these games, though.

It's weird that they're still calling their main series of bundles 'Be Mine'. It's not valentines day at the moment!

New bundle is sort of interesting... not sure if there are that many that are DRM-free and that I'm also interested in though...

The last six games were in a previous bundle of theirs. So I guess this is so people can get them if that missed that one.

Are Lightfish, Necrovision, and Ubersoldier 2 any good? Those are the only ones I don't already own.

Cool concept, and I appreciate that they've re-introduced DRM-free alternatives at least for some games, but the fact that half of the games were already featured in one of their previous bundles reduces the original idea to just a neat bonus for those who missed out on that, hardly leaving any choice for the rest.

As for me personally, the only game I'd be mildly interested in is a DRM-free Darkfall: Lost Souls.

It's a good idea. But most of those games have been bundled to death. With any luck they'll expand the options over time.

Necrovision is good if you like Painkiller style games. It takes a little while to fully get into its stride though.

Has anyone checked out already how this bundle works? Does it rely solely on good will? To me it seems you can choose any number of games from 3 to 12 and then pay what you want. There's a recommendation for the price depending on how many games you select, but what (apart from morals) is keeping anyone from selecting all and paying next to nothing?

Seems strange, I was expecting something like a limited number of games in a bundle or a minimum price for bigger bundles.

There is also a minimum, depending on the amount of games you pick.

First 3 games will have minimum of $1 per game, after that it's $0.75 per game.

Ah, okay, thanks! Was that written somewhere and I was too blind to see it? I have to admit that website looks a bit confusing to me.

Well, you can still download the DRM-free version, I guess.

You can still download it directly from the site (and Darkfall was the reason why I bothered with getting the bundle as well)

Damn, I need to work on my reading and comprehension skills, learn to keep my mind focussed etc. Actually I don't even care about the code, for me the DRM-free download was the incentive to get DF. ;)

Nope, click on the blue "PC" text next to the game name, in the downloads section and you will be able to download the game.
