I bought the previous one too, I'm thinking of getting this one as I never had the chance to play braid, and the others look cool aswell. I find it interesting that linux people have a higher average price paid :).

You can just put down anything (though it should be more than a dollar).

Hopefully other companies will see this and bring more games to linux.

It's nice to see that people are not taking advantage of this, and all paying $1. It's great that it all goes to a good cause.

Yeah, you can buy a game for whatever you want, and people still pay 7$ for it… :)

I bought mine for $50, and got the previous for something like $100.. You donate to charity, get good games, what more can you want!

im sure most people are paying $1, its just that the linux people and the people that paid 100+ which more than 1 looked like companies. If they pay less than like 70, its less than the value of those games, technically. It still is nice though since most of those games probably wouldnt have gotten the boost in sales and recognition again.

I think most people pay from 5 - 20, to be honest. If you really want those games for free then wait for the bundle to end and torrent it then…

Or torrent it whenever, there is already one up.

Donating just 0.01 is not nice, and the site owner probably ends up spending more in bandwidth than what you just used for that 0.01 :(

I'll probably donate $50 or so.

hi nice post.i never tried any of this game going to try out =D

Dan Cardin

2010-12-16 07:08:16

i dont think you can do .01. I feel like i tried $1 and it said you needed at least $2 or something. It might have been the credit card's fault though, and not the actual website. So i did $10 i think.

Bought this one for 20$… Not that much, but at least it's above average… :)

Artwork, yeah. Graphics, unsure. I quite liked the look of Braid.

It kind of looks oldschool which reminds me of the time i spent playing games such as space invaders.

notch is the developer of MineCraft, he is a great guy.

Give Braid a quick go… It's a really cool game if you understand it… It was not easy collecting all those puzzle pieces… Didn't play a lot but I got to the clouds that were not reversed over time. (Combined with the ones that did reverse)

My friend beat machinarium today; he said it took somewhere between 10 and 15 hours!

KingKong

2010-12-24 21:45:06

Holy s**t, I probably haven't even done it halfway even with using the walkthrough. Your friend must be addicted.

Now has official Bittorrent download links, save the bandwidth, pausable download easier, etc.

Like 10 hours left to get it, go get it if you haven't yet!!

Braid is fantastic.
