zegolfPay What You Want for PixelJunk Eden, Escape Goat, Noitu Love 2 and Auditorium
Four great games (and an alpha preview) for the price of… whatever you want, really.
Yep, indie bundles are still most definitely a thing. Just as the latest (awesome) Humble Bundle draws to a close, Indie Royale has launched its “June Bug Bundle”. (You should totally grab that Humble Bundle if you haven’t already. It’s amazing.)
The pack includes swing-and-collect ‘em up PixelJunk Eden; puzzle-platformer and bad pun Escape Goat; retro craziness Noitu Love 2: Devolution; and light/sound puzzle game Auditorium. The bundle also gives players access to an alpha preview built of gorgeous action-adventure title Iconocolasts. The appearance of Escape Goat in this bundle marks its debut on PC.
At the time of writing, the minimum price is just £2.56 — as usual with Indie Royale bundles, though, beating the minimum causes the price to drop for everyone else. So far the most generous contributor has been VVVVVV developer Terry Cavanagh, who chipped in twenty quid.
Auditorium has a Mac version; all other games are PC only. PixelJunk Eden, Noitu Love 2 and Auditorium may all be redeemed on Steam.
The bundle will be available for the next week. Grab your copy here.

I’ve actually been toying around with PixelJunk Eden, and I’m really enjoying it. I’ve read so many mixed things about it over the years, but it’s well worth checking out.
Auditorium has a special place in my heart. It was one of the first review codes I ever obtained.

PixelJunk Eden was once described as a Squaddie as “the game I’d like to wear”. I think that’s pretty apt, given its awesome visual style.
I tried Auditorium for the first time last night. I’ve been aware of it for a long time but never actually played it. What a fascinating experience! Reminds me, if anything, of Jeff “Yak the Hairy” Minter’s “light synthesiser” experiments in the ’80s and early ’90s — Colourspace and Trip-A-Tron, if anyone remembers those. (I’ll be impressed if you do.)
