Thanks for the head's-up!
It's been brought to my attention that many of the HE games are available on Amazon for digital PC download and it appears to be completely DRM-free. I'm not sure if this helps or hurts the chances of them coming to GOG, but at least this means Tommo isn't intending them to be Steam exclusives.

It's really a great news! Thanks for sharing. I was waiting for the DRM-free release of HE games. Even though they're not on GOG yet (and I hope that they will be released here too), this is obviously a very positive move.

Great news! This does bring some hope!

If the Amazon versions are DRM-free, I'm all over those. Interestingly it doesn't look like Night Dive published them there, though.

Tommo worked directly with Amazon with this particular release, and Night Dive created the installers. These are DRM-free.

Finally DRM-free releases of HE games. Thank you! I hope that we can see the GOG releases soon.

I bought Pajama Sam 1 and will buy more when I have more money to spend. :)

Can you please release DRM-free versions on Humble Store or GamersGate? Some non-US people seem to be having problems with Amazon - http://www.gog.com/forum/general/humongous_entertainment_games_are_now_on_amazon_drmfree

It's not some, it's all. Amazon downloads are only for US addresses. That other people are providing a US address when they do not reside in US, that is another matter entirely.

Humongous has now confirmed on Facebook that Putt-Putt Enters the Race will be coming to mobile devices in the near future. It's nice to see that Tommo is continuing those releases, I was kinda afraid they were just going to dump the games on Steam and then forget about them. Hopefully this means they have other plans for the future, possibly even new games? (I know it's a LONG shot, but a guy can dream, right?)
Ironically, humongous entertainment is what I've named the inside of my pants.

Yes, yes it is.
For those interested, a Twitch user known as Katixxia is streaming many of the HE games over the next few days. It seems like it's sponsored by Tommo and/or Night Dive, as she's also giving away a bunch of Steam keys for the games too.

It's a very small piece of news, but some new info from Humongous' Facebook seems to confirm that they do, in fact, own the rights to the Big Thinkers! and Junior Field Trips games. They have "nothing to announce" at the moment, but I'm at least glad the rights weren't lost in the Atari auction.
