DRM-free too
For quick access to the bundle:
https://itch.io/b/3802/game-industry-hardship-fundA lot of cool games in here
Yeah, worth it only for Magenta Horizon! Great spectacle fighter/CAG.
I dont know a single one besides A Short Hike, which one do you recommend?
I have had a lot of fun playing Eldritch in the past.
They Bleed Pixels is a pretty good precision platformer.
Holedown is a cute, simple, short block breaking game. I played it on mobile and liked it for a few days.
Done. Totally worth it.
Every dev gets less than $0.10* but think how many ads would need to be in a game to make that much per player
* edit: on average. Some have multiple entries and some donated their games without soliciting any proceeds.
It’s not evenly distributed.
The proceeds of this bundle will go toward a hardship fund for those experiencing layoffs. Individual out of work or under-employed game developers can apply to this fund and use the money for things they need, like food, healthcare, and rent. (This fund is not for companies.)
The layoffs should not have happened in the first place, or the devs should have received bonuses to cover living expenses until the AI bubble bursts and the economy stabilizes after that. I still bought the bundle though, that does not make Big Tech any less responsible.
I’m going to make my first online game transaction.
I made it Enjoyed ‘A Short Hike’ chill game included in the bundle.
I would like to have people do something like this if it were me, so I will buy even if I don’t think I’ll actually play any of these lol, my backlog is already considerable.
