Awesome! Also I already own VVVVVV and And Yet It Moves but I don't have the others. I most certainly don't want to beg either. If you have an extra code, and someone without any of the games(especially VVVVVV since I love that game) hasn't said anything yet, I would love a code.
I think you will all love VVVVVV, it is really quite charming, and until now it didn't have any re-playability but I spent quite a while playing it anyways.
Oh please cut the drama and head over to your inbox!

i'm a bit disappointed with these games, i worry that because the bundles are so frequent that the quality is going to dwindle. Don't get me wrong, VVVVVV and crayon physics are awesome but some of the others are really just filling the numbers up.
I don't really have the patience for games if they piss me off within the first couple of minutes, cogs lazy efforts at replayability and hammerfight's terrible ui have certainly done that.

I didn't think the UI was that bad. It's a bit busy at times but it's a good game. :D

I wish I hadn't missed HIB No. 2. Dang that bundle. And apparently they eventually bundled 1 into 2? or something? Awesome... in the worst way possible.

I think you have to accept that you're lucky if you like more than one of the bundle games or don't already own half of them.
I didn't like any of the Frozenbyte games and from the second bundle I had all the decent titles already aside from Revenge of the Titans, which I couldn't get into because it won't recognise my graphics tablet and I don't like using the mouse.
Besides, there's the DRM free aspect to it anyway that means you can make proper backups of all the cool games.

Hammerfight is hard, but fun, though often I have no idea what I'm doing but I suppose it is just learning. But has anyone else had problems running it full screen on widescreen display? Screen didn't stretch properly to my 1600x900 display but was more narrow than 4:3 and placed too left (not centered, but not over the edge of the screen either).
BTW, in VVVVVV editor, how I can browse objects beyond the first 10? It says < and > keys change tools? I tried arrow keys but couldn't get it work. Which keys I should press?

According to Terry on his tutorial: (The numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 are shortcuts for various tools, as are the top row letters R,T,Y,U,I,O,P). Does that answer your question? I don't know, I haven't used it yet.

Hammarfight is very difficult. Only on the second level.

Great package! I only wish I had thousands of dollars to give the developers what they deserve.

Just bought it. The average price is 4.40? This is worth at least double that.

Guessing it's a lot of people paying double that (or more) and a lot of people paying close to the minimum amount ... I did notice they had a default price of "$1 above average", which I thought might have been hurting them a bit when the average is low. But on refreshing it doesn't have that as the default anymore, so either they changed it just now or they're split testing it with low probability ...

@Tumetsu: I don't have that issue, it sounds like your monitor doesn't know how to deal. If it's a not-too-old flatscreen it should have an "auto-calibrate" button that shoudl fix it. Hammarfight is very difficult. Only on the second level.
Counting the two tutorials? Smaaash your enemy. High mouse sensitivity is really important in the game, and higher DPI = lower sensitivity (It took me a while to figure that out, since usually higher number means higher sensitivity). Honestly, if you're having trouble getting a full rotation in with the flail you should reduce it (I play with it set at 300), since it's a lot easier to swing than rigid-body weapons. Also, when fighting the worms or bees, avoid letting them touch you even if you have to abort a strong swing to do it. You can spin into a group of bees with the sword but get out if your sword stops spinning. Fighting other machines later in the game is a bit simpler since kamikaze is just as destructive to them as you

Anyway, I'm not too hot for the game selection here. I'll get the VVVVVV bonus content without it anyway so the only game I'm somewhat interested in is Hammerfight. Probably get it regardless.

I'm still a little sore over the first HIB since World of Goo made like $1 million from that alone, which is about 0.001% of the money I made when I contracted for them on that gig I'm not mad at 2D Boy, I'm just pissed that contractors get paid next to nothing and can't collect royalties.

I dunno, a billion dollars sounds like a pretty good deal to me, Phubans Naw, sarcasm aside, I understand your frustration there, pretty raw deal but contractors is contractors.
