Hey guys, I just wanted to give you (as always) a weeks notice prior to a bundle launch. Here's a copy of the press statment I just released to the major publishing sites like eurogamer and kotaku.
IndieFort “CountDown” Bundle
www.indiefort.comhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mot1Sl9tXbEStarting this Black Friday GamersGate will be proud to introduce the IndieFort Countdown
Bundle.
A selection of twenty great Independent games will be running a five week relay race of sorts,
with four games every week; and that isn’t the best part!
The bundles are priced at $4 dollars each - but every week where you purchase a bundle you
will get $1 off on the next one! So if you buy all the bundles they’ll cost you $4 the first week,
$3 the second, $2 the third, $1 the fourth, and as a special thank you we offer our die-hard
fans the fifth bundle will then be ABSOLUTELY FREE!
We have also teamed up with the kind folks at the charity organization Help-Daniel. Help-
Daniel is a charity drive to help a game developer, Daniel … , cover the medical expenses
needed to treat his brain tumor. We are dedicating part of the proceeds from the full five
weeks of sales to him, and want to reach out to the community for help in the hopes he makes
a full recovery soon.
As always, the entire GamersGate team wishes you all Happy Holidays!
Kind Regards
-Alexander Poysky

*EDIT*
Yes actually, quite a few of the games are steam released!
We will be offering steam codes (for a select few devs who DO want to distribute steam keys as thanks. Let me explain, all of the games in the bundle have GamersGate keys, while SOME are also on Steam. Of those on Steam, we asked if they wanted to provide Steam Keys. Some said no, so to those who believed that ALL games had Steam keys, or that all games that HAD Steam keys were going to give free keys, or to those who thought they would get TWO keys (Steam and Gamersgate to give to a friend), On a side note, I have been informed that some of Sigma Team's keys are not registering on Steam, we are working to sort it because I know for a fact that we recieved them, it'll be sorted soon enough, sorry folks! Also, I can confirm achron didn't want his keys to be released via Steam, and while I can't go into details as to the WHY I can say I fully support his decision and Chris himself is a great guy. Sorry guys!ALSO: Any donation made above the base price of the game goes untouched by gamersgate and myself, we give the money in full to both the charity and the devs.
Lemme know what you all think!
