Yeah, they're only 22 sales away from the bonus game too!

Not a smart move to use a game twice as bonus. Very likely many decided to wait if they can get it for the smaller price, didn't bought it instantly and forgot about that bundle or decided to skip it after the big two were available.

Yeah, I've been watching this like a hawk. Picked it up on the first day and was worried about whether or not I'd be getting Spirited Heart. That game is first Winter Wolves game I heard about and tried the demo for, and I'm glad to see that it'll be included soon.
I am extremely surprised that it's had so much trouble getting 1,000 customers, though. I've been waiting for a good price on Winter Wolves' games for a very long time. They're quite expensive, and very good. This is the best chance to pick them up that has ever presented itself, and will probably remain so for a long time, so I feel really sorry for anybody who misses out. I suppose if you're not the visual novel type, it's meaningless, but if you're like me, this bundle is a veritable treasure trove, and it's currently 21 units away from being even better.
Definitely one of the better bundles I've picked up all year, and that's saying a lot considering how many of the damn things I've accumulated.

Tempting, but I don't want to have to create yet another account somewhere (I don't have a FB account or Twitter account), and already have a ridiculously huge backlog. We're talking years of backlog gaming. At this point I'm already resigned to never playing some of the games I've purchased over the years. They come out faster than I can play through them.
Still, maybe I'll note down these games, see if they ever become available somewhere I already have an account. I do like Visual Novels.

I want this bundle, but I don't want to pay $10 for it, and I the one I'm most interested in is Planet Stronghold, and it probably won't reach 2000 sold.

Humm. Could anybody of the people who apparently like these games tell me what's so good about them? I've never heard of them before, bought the bundle for a dollar, and started playing "Bionic Heart". So far, I've noticed the following:
- While the setting seemed interesting at first, the story so far is very boring and uninspired. The writing style is average at best.
- The characters have been designed by someone whose understanding of human interactions is on the level of a 14-year-old. Including "witty" remarks about the male protagonist seeing a naked woman in the shower and immediately getting an erection, as if he never saw naked skin before. Eurgh.
- The game is extremely limited in the decisions it offers. Obvious ways of how I would react aren't available because the game wants to force me into other decisions.
- The voice acting is badly directed. The actors themselves are decent (although the the decision of letting 3 of four women be voiced by the same is actress is certainly debatable), but the directing is absolutely amateurish. The actors often say their lines in ways that don't fit the conversation, or as if they didn't really understood their context.
So far, I am utterly bored. The game is about as interesting as watching Beverly Hills 90whatever in a futuristic setting.
Am I missing something?

It's hit 1000! ^_^
Foxhack: I really want this bundle but I don't want to pay ten bucks... and I want these on Desura. :\ Umm... aside from Spirited Heart, these are all on Desura. $10 is a bargain, but you can get everything but Planet Stronghold for $5 and everything but Planet Stronghold, Always Remember Me, and Heileen 2 for $1. Try them, you'll like them. Just get the damn thing, at least some of the games. ;)

Am I missing something? They aren't the best, no, but I liked them a lot. Doesn't sound like it's your genre at all, though. Don't fret, it happens.

I am a bit tempted as i enjoyed a few visual novels style games (phoenix wright, 999).
But those seem full of sexual innuendos for teenage audience with terrible writing and the usual japanese ambiguous chara designs of ephebes and boobs.. I am trying a few demos on Desura but i'll pass, i guess. Or get it for my 12 yo little niece. :o

I've been watching this one, but I'm not sure whether I'll get it. I only really want planet stronghold.
You're going to give your 12 yo little niece a game full of sexual innuendos and boobs? O.o
