    Humble Frozen Synapse Bundle

    It's a pretty good deal, especially with Frozen Synapse.

    I personally paid $10 for the Bundle, and I hope that others will pay $5 at the least, considering that it is a cause worth supporting. It's for charity, it's DRM free (which is a step in the right direction), it allows you to pay what you want, and it's cross platform, and encourages developers who participate in the bundle to become the same way.

    I was actually thinking to myself that I should post this before anyone else does.

    I announced it on the Steam Community when it first came out ( http://steamcommunity.com/groups/BB_Servers/announcements/detail/1353554621404815517 ). What I would donate extra for is the music that they use in the trailer.

    If you're a real cheaparse, don't donate any less than $2 please. It costs them money if you donate a dollar or less and these packs are worth at least $10. Also my preference is to give most of it to Childs Play as they're a pretty good charity :v:.

    I saw this when it first came out, and donated $30 for a giftable one and then $5 for myself. Unfortunately, I didn't read that it wouldn't give you giftable copies... But whatever, good cause. So, I had already bought Trine, and for some reason, it just does not agree with my computer. I honestly have no idea what it is, but the screen goes all rainbow. I already knew this because I got all 76 (?) summer tickets, and one was for Trine, but never did figure out what the problem was. I took a screenshot, located here: http://steamcommunity.com/id/KingCole/screenshot/558661528528296911?tab=public, so I never really got to enjoy Trine.

    Teddi got it for me. :3 Though I have yet to see if any of the games will actually run decent on my computer.

    On any computer when I run Trine it always gets that GPU fan going and the CPU usage way up. For me it's been like that since its release and before I ever played it for the first time (pirated version); I had reading that a lot of people were getting fried and/or melted GPUs from Trine. Considering the graphics aren't spectacular I have no idea how they accomplished this.

    Anyways with a good or decent PC it's a pretty fun side scroller.
