The Humble Voxatron Debut "humble bundle"
cloudenvy:
The Humble Voxatron Debut "humble bundle" just came out with a new one today 10-31-11. If the frozen synapse bundle confused you this one is even more odd. Its pay what you want for "Voxatron". Im geting the bundle just because Thats what I do. I dont care what is being sold, But things like this do make me wonder what they are thinking.
To me it looks like they are testing the users. Like this is just one big experiment (not that thats a bad thing)
I cant play this game for another week or so, so if anyone has it post if its any good or not.
Edit: I think its also an alpha(not sure) 10-31-11
Edit: Now With "The Binding of Isaac" and "Blocks That Matter" 11-01-11
Edit: Now with "Gish" "Chocolate Castle" "Zen Puzzle Garden" and "Jasper's Journeys" 11-9-10

I know what you mean. Its like being able to get summer ale, or egg nog, all year round. Before long its not going it be something to look forword to as much. I almost exspect one every 2 months or so now. (the frozen synapse bundle just ended at the start of this month)
I wish they would go back to every 6 or 9 month (Somthing like that)

I'm thinking the humble bundle is similar to the patronage system of kickstarter. (only in reverse)
It might also be a great way to pave for the notion towards copyleft over copyright.
software distribution is based on artificial scarcity anyways..
so maybe they're experimenting on a practical implementation for post-scarcity economics
specifically designed for online software distribution..

Now if you pay more than the average you get "Blocks That Matter" and "The Binding of Isaa". This reminds me of something Dille said about the "Humble Frozen Synapse Bundle"

They should probably do something like this for all bundles just to keep the "let's pay 1 cent and win" people away.
