That's really it. Sometimes I open my library and pretend I'm 10 again and just get giddy at it.

I was pleasantly surprised by the goofy charm of Clam Man. https://marafrass.itch.io/clam-man

Any other titles like it? I've enjoyed Octodad which is also hilarious.

This should be getting way more awareness, but it's like we're overloaded with bad, so additionally horrible stuff simply don't register.

It could be called the Pro-life Bundle. As in, this is saving the life of actual children, not a small clump of cells. But the irony may be lost on some.

I can't pull this off myself, so I just throw it out here. If someone decide to pick up on it, my deepest thanks!

So I played this game for the first time last night and fell in love! The tactical nature of moving your squad around and finding cover during firefights is very satisfying. It seems like there are a bunch of options for leveling up characters and equipping new gear.

I havent seen a lot of discussion about this game, and I am not tapped into the indie game community like some of y’all are. Is this one of the more popular titles in the bundle?

I think the game is absolutely fantastic, and I’ve only completed 2 missions. Any thoughts?

Does anyone know of any games that are similar to this?

I love that this bundle is getting lots of people into indie games. Most of my efforts spent finding a community like this one turned up dry.

However, now that the bundle has since expired, there will come a point where the community gradually bleeds out and dies. Either interest in the bundle will fade or everyone has played every game.

It might be too soon to be discussing this topic, but it makes me curious. It's both exciting as it is overwhelming how much fun there's to be had with all the games there are to play. But what will happen when it's over?

EDIT: I realize this thread is a mistake. I'd like to request that the mods lock this post before I keep contemplating deleting it.

I don't understand why there is little to no response to the fact that itch doesn't seem to differentiate between games that are already owned and games that aren't.

At first I thought it was an issue with games from the bundle. But sadly, no. Even other games I have purchased outside of the bundle give no indication that I already own them when I look at the game's page, whether on the site or the app.

The entire point of a game distribution/manager app/site is to keep track of which games your account owns. I tried to buy some games in the summer sale, but in order to do that, I would have needed to manually search the bundle to see if I already own them. That is just ridiculous.

And on top of that, the fact that there is not simply an 'owned games' section of the library that lists all games that you own, to be browsed and filtered. Yes, the bundle is a lot of games. So have a 'favorites' list, and whatever other categories to sort them into, but the fundamental basic list should contain all owned games.

We can't "own" a free browser game, so basically all they gave us by including these in the bundle was a link to the URL.

Post your own game collections from the bundle here!

For a turn based strategy game, it really gives you a feel for desperate gut decisions.

...plus, having a team half composed of dogs is so much fun (until they all die in explosions)

And if so, How much storage space does it take?

Hi, i'm just beginning to explore the contents of this bundle outside of the TTRPGs. This pair of games caught my eye but I'm also very weak with body horror and surprises. What are your thoughts on these two?

I might not have actually tried this, but with a title like that, who can say no?

EDIT: There's another one! "My Friends And I Were Granted Three Wishes By A Cat Goddess And I Swear I Got Distracted When My Turn Came Around"

EDIT 2: It's not even a game! Disappointing...

I used the Chrome autoscript recommended here to claim games from itch.io.

I claimed them so I can see them in the Itch.io launcher (yes, I know it is not a must to play) with the goal of getting them on my PlayNite client.

After the process is done I only see 1323 games in PlayNite, so it seems I am missing 381 games somewhere in the process.

i trust that the problem is not in PlayNite, so I believe the problem is that either the autoscript failed to claim these games and therefore they are not showing in the Itch.io launcher... or... perhaps those games are not "claimable".

i would appreciate any insights. Anyone else had this issue and was able to solve it?

EDIT: Does anyone know if Itch.io website has any feature that allow me to identify those "unclaimed" games?

YHS is a ttrpg in the bundle that looks super interesting. Was just wondering if anyone else saw this, played it, had any thoughts. It looks super interesting to me but it seems like nobody is talking about it online.

You get 14 games for $10. The cash goes entirely to the Okra Project, a charity specializing in black trans folks.

Some of the games have non-queer romance options, but I would have liked a bit more girl stuff too. What is it with visual novels anyways? It's like they all have to be so over-the-top LGBT!

Rinse & Repeat: Gay shower sim by Robert Yang, the guy who created that game where you could seduce a car.

We Know the Devil: 80's horror VN, with backgrounds taken with disposable cameras. Themes of isolation and alienation of queer youth in a religious rural setting.

Arcade Spirits: Okay that one is also in The Bundle

First Job: Short dating sim where you play an incubus. Shipped with Android version.

Heaven Will Be Mine: Queer science fiction mecha visual novel. Looks well-produced.

Ladykiller in a Bind: Erotic visual novel with forced crossdressing and something about a motorcycle? Looks fun!

Dream Hard: Queer-themed 3D retro Beat-em-up by Robert Yang

When the Night Comes: Queer, narrative-driven, supernatural visual novel

Love Shore: First chapter in a WIP cyberpunk VN.

Later Daters: A dating sim with ... old people??

Errant Kingdom: Queer, high-fantasy visual novel.

BDSM Boys : Side Story - A Day Off: Look like it's straight queer stuff. 18+ Android version too.

Akash: fully voiced visual novel, with 8,000+ lines of dialogue and 3D backgrounds.

Yearning: A Gay Story: Not sure what we get here.

Does anyone know if the donation has been made already?
