1600+ indie games, including some heavy-hitters like Celeste and Night in the Woods, for just $5, with half the proceeds going towards the NAACP Legal Defense, and the other half going towards the Educational Fund and Community Bail Fund. Three days remaining.

Yeah, most of these are flat-out garbage, but who cares, it's for a good cause.

Thank you.

Oh, and they just keep adding games, too.

Last week, they had ~700, and they've since more than doubled this number. Seems like they're just gonna keep adding titles until the offer ends.

5 games from my wishlist are in this bundle, fantastic.

Good lord I really want to support this but at the same time so many of these games are shit you couldn't ever pay me enough to ever put in my queue.

Here are games that made me spend 5$ or that I was pleasantly surprised to find in this bundle:
Celeste
Night in the Woods (I wasn't expecting this game to become popular when I first found it)
OneShot (actually beat it today, started playing around 9 A.M and with pauses finished 6 P.M which was hour ago my time)
Pyre (which is 3rd Supergiant game)
2064:Read Only Memories (which I'm interested in because it's Va-11: Hall-A prequel)

I also saw some interesting titles that caught my attention that I forgot about already, but I would give it a try someday.

There also has been a lot non-game content in this bundle, like assets for games, spreadsheets, light novels and music albums.
Pixel asset might be useful for me someday, if I ever bring myself making games.

Other than there is a lot of garbage (and I browsed to page 40, 16 pages remain), but at least it doesn't show up in my library unless I decide to go to download page I think.

So, I browsed entire bundle and I found only one game which I already owned before buying this bundle (which is Mini Ghost). I also found that Minix is in bundle, and while only name rings me bells and I know nothing about it, it's published by DevolverDigital, so chances are it is a good game.

Oh cool, 2064 REM is in it. That's a snap buy.

Oh, guess I can show you a few teasers for a followup game then.
