Was hoping to grab LoA...

I wish BlinkBundle would add Amazon payments. I think I'm one of the few people who utilizes it.

I wouldn't worry about that.. Jonny keeps hinting that the mystery game will be LoA. Pretty dumb if you ask me, I've been talking to the Blink rep and he said it'd still be breaching their contract if LoA is a mystery game in the bundle. Don't know why the LoA dev didn't fully back out of the bundle by now.

I dont understand how it would be a breach of contract if the blink bundle only runs for X amount of time and LOA is only revealed in groupees once blink finishes ?

I don't know the specifics, but whoever buys the bundle whenever it launches will get the game when it's unlocked which is why I think it breaches the contract. If it was only available for people that purchased the bundle at a certain date, it might be a different story. Think of it like a preorder, you know you're getting the game regardless, it's just not "revealed" until after the Blink bundle ends. It won't prevent the breach.

It's pretty shady of Groupees to be doing this, and not worth the potential bad rep IMO.

To be fair the dev should have been aware of this. i dunno.

The dev was aware of it when Blink notified them about it . Although I don't know if the dev figured out that they're still breaching it by including the game as a "mystery game". At that point they should've realized it was too risky to keep it in the bundle..

But I guess we'll see. It's not 100% confirmed LoA will be the mystery game.. just extremely likely based on Jonny's hints.

I'm not sure how likely it is exactly. The hint (as far as I'm aware) was that the mystery game was every bit as good as LoA, which - given the bad reputation of LoA - isn't that difficult to achieve. And there are lots of Scandinavian games to choose from. Krater comes to mind as an alternative that's a similar type of game, has a much better reputation, was developed by Scandinavians, and has appeared in bundles already. But you're usually better informed than me, so ... ;)

The bundle is live now. I have to get it for "The Antikythera Mechanism" alone, though there are other items I want as well.
Posted February 28, 2014
Unfortunately a bit fail bundle for me atm. I was hoping for more interesting scandinavian bundle. Hopefully the bonuses will be good, so all is not lost yet.

Might as well be a music bundle, I am underwhelmed by the games.

Yeah, it's confirmed now that LoA isn't in the bundle. It's getting moved to a Build a Bundle.

We were asked by Three Gates to remove their game, Legends of Aethereus, from this bundle due to legal pressure. and so it will now appear inthe build a bundle on March 14
