    Hey guys, there is a new type of indie bundle similar to the humble bundle, it's Indie Royale. The gimmick for this pack is the earlier you buy, the cheaper the pack is. As more people buy the pack, the price goes up. Right now it is at $5.23. If some one pays more than the minimum, then they lower the price for everyone.

    Right now they are offering the Launch Bundle which contains A.R.E.S. Extinction Agenda, Gemini Rue, Sanctum and Nimbus. You can redeem A.R.E.S., Sanctum and Nimbus on Steam but not Gemini Rue. They are also including two Sanctum DLCs because they got 20,000 sales and if they get 70,000 sales then they will add another Sanctum DLC.

    They will be offering 3 more bundles in the future. The 2nd bundle will be in 13 days, the 3rd bundle will be in 27 days and the 4th bundle will be in 41 days.

    I got it yesterday at under $3. Interesting mechanic on how they price it, but I wonder if it will just hurt more sales as time goes on.

    at $5, it's priced decently. i'll pass, considering the games it includes.

    humble bundle is priced in such a way that you basically have to buy it.
