PenutBrittle: Really Big Sky. Didn't see that coming. For those confused, the other two games are non-Steam BTA downloads. As for the other two games, Wake is a super cool platformer on a sinking ship, and yes that means you're on a timer. Think the original Prince of Persia, except pretty different as the world slowly floods and drowning seems like a distinct possibility. I'm not overly attached to the other one, Lunnye Devitsy, but Really Big Sky is pretty great as far as arcade games go.

The other two show up when you click buy now. They're beat the average bonuses, like the hintbooks were for Geneforge. It definitely should be better advertised, but you should probably update the OP.
Ah good to know. Not sure I can be bothered to update the OP again since it's such a pain in the arse to preserve the formatting (GOG seem to have mildly broken the forum again).

This is the most disappointing deal they've had yet, IMO. I believe Really Big Sky was in an Indie Royale bundle, and Really Big Sky + the BTA bonuses were in an Indie Gala bundle.. I suppose it's an ok deal if you don't buy bundles.

Thanks for the info. I bought it now for Wake and Lunnye Devitsy. :)

But how does this work. In my cart, I was told "Beat the average of 1.03$". I paid 1.04$. But only Really Big Sky (the one game that I don't want) was added to my games wallet. Where are the other two?

SirPrimalform: Yup, I only see 1 as well. And no Desura key when the game is on Desura!

As always. you find the answers I need Colin. The 2 bonus games seem fun.

Same here! I clicked beat the average and paid for it. Yet, unfortunately, the BTA games do not show up in my game wallet. :(

Not a clue, I didn't buy it because I already have the lot of them.

Would they show up in the game wallet as RBS extras? Try downloading those.

Same problem, already have RBS and bought for the 'Lunar Pack'. Paid over the average, no bonuses...

No, there are no extras listed.

The average may have changed during the process before payment was finalised. The average is $1.07 right now.

EDIT: All 3 games were part of Indie Gala 4, in the Beat The Average price tier. Really Big Sky was also in the Indie Royale Really Big Bundle.

There are no extras, just the RBS download (at 137.1 MB) and a button for requesting one Steam key.

Does anyone here see the two extra games in their wallet?

Oh, you know what? You might be right. But we shouldn't be penalized for the average changing during our transaction, right?

Nah, my email receipt lists Really Big Sky + Bonus Content.

No, they wouldn't do that. I expect it's a glitch. I tweeted at them to see what's up, I'll post results if I get an answer.

I checked it right before I entered the number, by moving the slider. The checkout page clearly said "Beat the average of 1.03$". If your assumption is correct, then IGS either needs to make their checkout page update when the average changes, or take the average at the moment when the user clicks on "Buy", regardless if it changes later.

Same. My e-mail receipt also says "Really Big Sky + Bonus Content." I guess I'm going to have to send them an e-mail...

Just a guess. It happened to me with another indie bundle once, can't remember which one there's been so many.
