Thats interesting! I user Smart AudioBook Reader for my audio books, great features! Will have a look at that app for text.Originally Posted by ave
All we need now is a humble tv series bundle and I'm screwed. I actually bought ivona text to speech reader and I now listen to my ebooks while I'm doing the mindless stuff like driving, dishes etc.
That's an android app right. In that case Ivona is free on Google play while it's still in beta. Just download the Amy voice. That is by far the most natural sounding. You can then use FBReader with the TTS plugin. Works like a charm. I bought the windows app though, which allows you to convert to mp3 and listen on your mp3 player. (Either way it will take a chapter or two to get into it, especially if you are used to a professional reader, but push through and very soon you wont notice.)
Humble: Summer Games Done Quick Bundle
$25 for:
- Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs
- Gunpoint
- Noitu Love 2 Devolution
- Bleed
- Electronic Super Joy
- Guacamelee! Gold Edition
- Psychonauts
- Dustforce
- The Basement Collection
- Giana Sisters: Rise of the Owlverlord
NOTE:
- All games are Steam redeemable.
I don't know, Gunpoint, Psychonauts and Guacamelee are all really good games, but at that price I don't think it's worth it.
I agree with you. They could have made that a normal, 'pay what you want' bundle and it would sell a lot more.
Unless you own none of those games, then I'd potentially consider it.

Does anyone else feel these bundles have essentially ruined their market segment as well as entry-level indie games as a whole? Nowadays I don't buy indie games when they release anymore because I know they're going to end up in a bundle for a few dollars somewhere down the line.
Bundles also don't seem to sell well at all anymore. I was looking at an IndieGala bundle the other day and a week into it it had 8000 sales. It feels kinda like with all these dozens of bundles popping up all the time we've lost sight of what bundles were supposed to be about, which was to get a bunch of games for a discount while supporting charity. Now it's just a means of getting as many indie games as possible for as cheaply as possible.
People used to get excited when the new Humble Bundle started. Now you can barely go a week without multiple new bundles popping up. It's a little sad and one has to wonder what this race to the bottom business model has done to indie games in general.

Very true. I've wondered the same. Thought that perhaps the huge amount of bundles sold might make up for the low price. But yeah, I agree with you.
