This is… A whole lot of games.
I did love tunic, fantastic game, easily worth that price on its own.
I’ve never played cook serve delicious, but it’s been on my radar. I’ll have to give this a shot. Heh, there are some tabletop games and rulesets on this list, could be some hidden gems in there. Honestly, this is big enough to be worth just buying on principle, sort it out later.
Cool Serve Delicious is tons of fun, my favorite coop cooking game for sure. My wife and I play it constantly
Do these work with steamdeck? Ive never installed outside valves store.
Yes, you install them through desktop mode then load them into steam as a non steam game. Then they’ll show up in game mode. There’s also a decky plugin that easily lets you add artwork for the steam entry
The ‘SteamGridDB’ plugin is the one which does this!
Thanks
It looks like there are a few games I was slightly interested in trying at some point, but not enough to buy them, but having so many together as a single purchase, I couldn’t resist. I even paid the default price of $20 instead of $10.
There’s a lot of neat stuff in here! Thanks for the link.

The point of this is obviously the charity, but I’m not gonna lie, after a quick look at the included games, if Tunic wasn’t in this bundle I would feel ripped off paying $10 for it.
I don’t see any of those other games combined being worth $10 to me. Multiple visual novels / story games, puzzle games, and many games that look like a generic Kemco published RPG Maker game but with a pastel color palette this time. Again, I get that the point of this is charity, but Tunic is literally the only game that I would say brings value to this bundle. If someone already owns Tunic and is considering this, I would say to just directly donate the money.

Besides Tunic, there are still several good to great games in the first dozen (and no doubt a bunch more if you’re willing to dig into the smaller indies):

Pfft! You sound like an Octopus pretending to be a real dad, you can’t fool me!

I bought it because my son has been asking for Skatebird, but we also enjoyed an hour playing Ripped Pants at Work together and I’ll give Delver a go later tonight.
Thats the thing with bundles, different titles will appeal to different people.

Yeah, all bundles have been like this. A few good ones and the rest hardly even worth playing for free.
But if you want to donate directly, you can do that here: www.coreresponse.org

Or just like… Donate through the bundle and consider trying out some minor projects created by people who are trying to make something cool? Why turn down access to these games out of some form of perceived superiority? This notion that since you’ve never heard of these other titles they can’t possible offer anything of value to you is kind of a spit in the face of struggling artists of all types.

To each their own. I have no idea what Tunic is, I got it for
The fact you say it has lots of VNs and puzzle games suggests there is more in the bundle I’ll like if I just explore more as those genres are to my taste.

Octodad is unironically worth $10

I actually disliked Tunic, just saying. I got more enjoyment out of Cosmic Express and Delver (and I didn’t even like the final fight in Delver). Whatever floats your boat…

Same. I gave Tunic a fair shot until I had to use a guide to get further due to the devs cheaply hiding a teleport gate in the map. Plus the spirit gauntlet was its own bit of bs

Octodad is well worth $10 even with how old it is.
