keeveek: so, they went fully into "constant bundles no matter how bad they are" mode?
Haven't they been doing constant bundles for a year and a half already? That's kind of Indie Royale's thing, a bundle every two weeks or so.

EDIT: Oh yeah, they've only been about a week apart recently. You make a good point then. I really hope it doesn't mean Desura is tanking... I sometimes get the impression that Indie Royale is Desura's main means of support.

I'm a bit paranoid about that too after seeing that sales chart breakdown for Defender's Quest a few weeks ago. It showed Desura as a small fraction of a percent of overall sales.

They're doing a pretty awful job of marketing the site... and the fact that they include so many Steam keys in IndieRoyales means they're just sending everyone to Valve.

Played Gunman Clive from the Greenlight Bundle - it's a very nice game. Short but sweet.

Yeah, I think only recently they started to do that - new bundles starts almost immediately after the last, no pause between them.
I'm not interested in single episodes, so only the Alchemy and 6180 games interest me. Unfortunately, those two have invite only releases, so I have no idea how much they'd cost regularly and it's all one key so I can't split the other games. Considering how many people want Steam keys just so they can split the bundle, that's probably the direction Steam should go. Still, it seems better to be able to give the game to someone who wants to play it than to let it rot on my account.

I remember seeing Alchemy for $12 before it went invite-only and 6180 was up for free, leading me to believe it was only ever intended to be invite-only and they messed something up, so no idea how much it would cost.

Thanks. I think I would buy them, but I really need to cut down on how many bundles I buy, especially when I can't do anything with the extra games.

That, and their DRM-free reputation has taken a bit of a knock of late with a number of titles that have imposed DRM even from Desura. There have a number of games that only gave you a Steam key from Desura and didn't announce this (although this has since been changed), and a number of games which had their own form of DRM and didn't announce this fact (Depth Hunter).

I know that I for one have been a little wary about buying from Desura since, even though the service itself is awesome.

While I'm aware of the games that only give you a Steam key, I didn't know any of them were unannounced. I remember right from the beginning of the Steam only games it used to say "Requires Steam to play." just above the buy button...

Thanks for the heads-up, I've been curious about that game for a while. :)
Picked this up last minute for some more Mac games and a copy of Cognition on a service I can remember my password for. >.>

Really liking Master of Alchemy. Reminds me a LOT of Enigmo.

Kind of mad Gunman Clive doesn't work on here since I'm on 10.6. Forgot to play it when I got the Greenlight Bundle it was in because my computer was busted last time and the Win8 RC didn't have OpenGL drivers for my graphics card at the time.
