New Humble Bundle launched to support IGF chairman Brandon Boyer
A "very special" Humble Bundle popped up on Wednesday, this time in support of Independent Games Festival chairman Brandon Boyer. A Bundle of Love for Brandon includes 32 games and soundtracks packaged together to support Boyer, who was diagnosed with cancer late last year.
Boyer is a mainstay of the indie games scene, and numerous game designers have spoken up over the last couple of weeks to thank him for giving their games a platform before anyone else would give them the time of day. Like many game designers and freelance game writers, Brandon is self-employed. Even so, he managed to pay for his own health insurance a few months before his diagnosis. After his diagnosis, hospitalization, and treatment, Boyer was denied coverage by that insurance. You can read the extremely upsetting saga at at his fundraising page , which launched last week.
That fundraising effort has since been successful, but it's probable that Boyer will need more help. Offering up $25 for a big pile of indie games is a great way to do just that.
The full list of included games and soundtracks is below. The promotion will end next Friday at midnight.
