The Humble Frozenbyte Bundle


Recommended Posts

So what do people think about this...

I was not going to purchase anything, as I have already played Trine, and have no real interest in the other games, but with that said, I figure a donation of $5 is better then nothing right?

I donated $5, even though I probably will never get the time to play more than 30 minutes of any of them. But what the heck, it's better than buying fast food tonight for the same price, haha.

If you already own some of the games then I would just factor that into the amount you chose to pay. Having no idea how I would enjoy them I paid $5. If I enjoy the games then I will top up my purchase price like I did with the second bundle when they added in the first one for free :)

I love how the average Linux donation is almost double the average PC and Mac donations. Represent! ;)

I already have Trine, but I think I might just go ahead and drop $10 on this anyways, just to support the cause. I've skipped my daily coffee enough times this month to justify the purchase :laugh: .

Purchased.

The downloads from the main Humble Bundle site are indeed very slow, which is to be expected, so I just activated the key on Steam, and am getting my normal fast Steam download speeds.

Figured why not check out Shadowgrounds: Survivor. (Y)

Hey... every penny helps. Even 1 cent is better than nothing... no? (It's not much better but still hah!)

Under a certain threshold - the transaction fees outweigh the amount pledged so no, they end up out of pocket if people pay $0.01.

No, a 1 cent donation is actually a loss to them due to fees incurred in the transaction.

If you want to be cheap, at least kick in a buck. It's less than what almost anyone would waste in a week.

I'm not sure about PayPal or Google Checkout, but Amazon won't let you donate an amount so low that they'd end up losing money. No idea what the threshold is there though. And when I bought it yesterday, at the time, they said Google Checkout was having issues with amounts under $0.30. And PayPal was acting like a git; when I logged in, it would not let me pay with my bank account, it wanted me to transfer ?5 into my PayPal account, so I had to pay as a guest. :pinch:

Purchased.

Trine looks nice, and those two Shadowgrounds games could potentially be about as fun as Dead Nation (even if probably not as polished) :unsure:

Well worth $20, IMO.

And here was I thinking that we were the cheapskates :whistle:

    • VidCoder 12.20 by Razvan Serea  VidCoder is a DVD/Blu-ray ripping and video transcoding application for Windows. It uses HandBrake as its encoding engine. Calling directly into the HandBrake library gives it a more rich UI than the official HandBrake Windows GUI. VidCoder can rip DVDs but does not defeat the CSS encryption found in most commercial DVDs. You’ll need the NET 8 Desktop Runtime. If you don’t have it, VidCoder will prompt you to download and install it. The Portable version is self-contained and does not require any .NET Runtime to be installed. You do not need to install HandBrake for VidCoder to work. Feature list: Multi-threaded MP4, MKV containers Completely integrated encoding pipeline: everything is in one process and no huge intermediate temporary files H.264, H.265, MPEG-4, MPEG-2, VP8, Theora video Hardware-accelerated encoding with AMD VCE, Nvidia NVENC and Intel QuickSync AAC, MP3, Vorbis, AC3, FLAC audio encoding and AAC/AC3/MP3/DTS/DTS-HD passthrough Target bitrate, size or quality for video 2-pass encoding Decomb, detelecine, deinterlace, rotate, reflect, chroma smooth, colorspace filters Powerful batch encoding with simultaneous encodes Customizable Pickers to automatically pick audio and subtitle tracks, destination, titles and more Instant source previews Creates small encoded preview clips Pause, resume encoding VidCoder 12.20 changes: Updated HandBrake core to 1.11.2.

    • Too soon, I'm still not over this death!
    • Normally, I admit when a title is clickbait (unfortunately, it's become somewhat necessary to compete against AI-dominated news sections today), but in this case, all supported versions is implied and doesn't need to be spelled out in the title. Of course, I'm covering a Patch Tuesday update bug that is only available to supported Windows SKUs. All our coverage relates to supported Windows software and SKUs only unless we expressly state that it's "unsupported", "unofficial", or "third-party". I'm sorry, but supported/official SKUs don't need to be spelled out as such in every Neowin headline.
