So, I'm always looking for fun little new games by independent or new developers. I got an email today from Cipher Prime (the makers of the very addictive Auditorium and Fractal games) about this indie game bundle that sounds pretty interesting, and like a great value - except for the fact that I haven't played many of these games.

If I decide to seriously consider purchasing, I'll probably try out any demos that are available, but I did want to know if anybody has had experiences or has played any of these games before.

There are three separate bundles available, includes games from Dejobaan Games, Digital Eel, Lazy 8 Studios, Llamasoft, and Nifflas' Games, titles being:
- AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!!: A Reckless Disregard for Gravity
- BrainPipe
- Captain Forever
- Cogs
- Saira
- Space Giraffe
- And Yet It Moves
- Auditorium
- Aztaka
- Eufloria
- Machinarium
- Osmos

The only game I've played on this list is Auditorium. The graphics and screenshots look really nice, but I would like to hear any feedback if anyone else has played these, or other games by these companies. :-)

I just tried to purchase them, but nothing happened. Plus the "contact" button didn't work D=

She spins magic and moonlight in her meadows and streams, and seeks deep inside me,
and touches my dreams. - Harry Chapin

Reaaaally? :( Oh no, I hope the link isn't bad or anything... *goes to investigate*

Edit: Try the links in the footer. I think these should work:

Space Giraffe is superb however everybody should play the demo of it before plunging to purchase it because it can be a very--acquired taste to be honest.
Cogs is okay, not what I would call a spectacular game but certainly worth some time on any demo it might have at least.
Only heard good things about Machinarium but I haven't had the chance to give it a whirl myself.
Osmos is a beautiful game and I really think that everybody owes it to themselves to experience it, especially if they can find it for a cheeky little low price.

*Headdesk* I bought the wrong one. Silly me.

Edit: I haven't had time to play any yet, I've been busy downloading. CipherPrime was good enough to help me out on my order. :D Good public relations there. I look forward to actually playing.
