DodoGeo: Looking at the sale numbers I guess this is it, the market is fed up. Even the Humble Bundle is looking at a massive drop in sales compared to millions in previous bundles.

Wonder how future bundles will fare.
Not only saturation, I also find this limiting as it almost need a android device. These two android bundles are the only ones I have not bought, and it is solely because of this. I know most of the games are on PC also, but it seems wasted, especially since the PC part feels almost tagged on as a bonus.

Themed bundles before (Frozenbyte, Voxatron etc) sold less then the "proper" HIB's. I will wait and see how they will compare with the next "proper" HIB before making any judgements.

I'm not so sure its necessarily saturation in this case. For starters the number of games in this and the previous android bundle are extremely limited. Each has 1 or 2 games that were previously available. And finally, likely because its an android bundle, the average price has been driven up about 2 dollars than the normal humble indie bundles so people wanting the bonus have to spend more.

An interesting experiment would be to see what the sells numbers (both in quantity and money raised) would be between have the current above average bonus or having Cogs be the bonus.

*Note I have bought every humble bundle except the first(though it was included in the second so I still have it). Also I have not bought any other bundles(about 2-3 reasons why).

They got 930k from the first Android bundle.

I'm sure they will get at least 700k from this one, and if they add something interesting (like Dungeons of Dredmore some bundle ago) it could reach 900k.

They don't have 10% of that with half of the sale time behind them. Even half of that would be a wonder.

If they actually decide to do a bundle with GAMES again, and not a crappy Android-Mojam festivity with games that overlap with previous bundles and "pay more than the average to get this" mentality, people will support it.

I want a RPG bundle already.

I think SLP is talking about Total Payments (currently above 500k), not bundles sold.

In that case, that they will.

What's wrong with Android 2 bundle?

I think those games are interesting. Only one game were included in a previous bundle.

And RPG bundle would be a total failure. Only rpg gamers would buy it.

Yeah. Now they give you Steam codes when you pay at least 1$, so all those retards who paid 0.01$ are gone now.

I remember seeing TotalBiscuit's WTF for this. It is a pure casual mobile touchscreen game. And not a very good one at that.

... Wait a second.

SMUGGLE MODE ISN'T IN THE STEAM VERSION, WHAT THE FUCK VALVE.

I want to help my countrymen LIVE THE DREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM

Well. Looks like this is really meant to be an Android bundle, not a PC bundle.

HiB loves its supporters so much that they're going to let all the non-Android users have a backlog of Android games before they actually buy an Android device.
