That's not a deal! I mean, yes, donating to charity is all well and good, but the base tier is $25, for a slew of steam only games that have likely been bundled before. I prefer to buy games, but when I want to try them out, I may 'rent' them on steam first.

So, what's with the Steam price inflation lately? First, they have a decidedly lackluster sale, complete with no daily deals, minigames, or anything, and now Humble seems to be raising their prices as well. The timing of the subscription model is also a bit suspicious.
I'm beginning to wonder if the Steam console has started costing the company dearly, or that they're losing too much revenue to their bundle storefronts. That or Gabe wants to buy a Hawaiian Island like Larry Ellison. Hopefully, I'm just reading too much into things.
PincushionMan: Yeah, I'll likely buy it, just for "Out There". It seems like that's the pick of the litter, though.

expopower: Wow! Thanks for taking all that time for a detailed overview of each of the games. Purchased the bundle largely on your evaluation of it. =P
No problem, man. That game clenched the deal for me as well. Sadly, I'll probably install and play Fine Sweeper first.
