JTD121: Can someone who has bought the bundle tell me what soundtracks are included?

And it looks like Uplink is Android-only in this one? It might just put me in the mood to buy a Nexus 7! :) Already own Uplink a couple times over, but man is it a great game!
All five games so far has Windows, Mac, Linux, and Android versions included. And soundtracks.
Wow. Well, awesome.

Last time I bought the Introversion bundle, Uplink didn't have a soundtrack, though the music wasn't really all that memorable, compared to say, Darwinia :)

Anyone know how Uplink plays on a tablet?

jamesbuc: Edit: Internet check for Bit.Trip.Beat? Well theres another reason for me to give this pack a miss. Double that if the 'Bonus' stuff turns out to be previous Humble Android stuff.

EC-: That's what I am hoping for, as I missed the previous ones. I do agree that the starting lineup is not stellar.
They've done some of it, looks like a mix and match between the previous two Android HIB's, if I remember correctly.
Yes they added some games from the original HB for Android 1.


Has someone tried Spirits? worth it the BTA price? I can't even find this game in the steam store...

I haven't played enough to give a good opinion, but it's the same type of game as Lemmings.

It probably isn't on Steam yet since it's debuting (for PC) with this bundle, but it is redeemable. They did the same thing with Botanicula.

nijuu: Well that sucks about Spacechem and the other game tablet only - i wonder why they did this despite fact most android devices are phones and not tablets atm?.Oh well.Lost sale....
This is not the first time. In some earlier Android Humble Bundle, Spiderweb Software's RPG "Avadon: The Black Fortress" was also tablet-only. And I am not suprised because the graphics are quite tiny and detailed already in a "big" tablet screen, so the game would be fully unplayable and the graphics and text illegible on smartphones, even the ones with bigger screens.

I haven't yet downloaded and installed this newest bundle (on Windows or Android), so I can't comment on them yet.

Now I see they have extended the bundle with games from some earlier Android Humble Bundle, like Osmos, EDGE, World of Goo and Anomaly: Warzone Earth.

Thanks for the reply. :) I'm really undecided about this game :S
Okay, I bought the bundle. Mostly for the soundtrack to Uplink, which I later found out was free :(

And of course, I forgot GOG had Uplink as well! :(

But tablet-capable play of Uplink! :)

I checked (all) the games on Android tablet, and I am not surprised Spacechem and Uplink require tablet. The graphics and text are so tiny even on Transformer tablet screen that they would be pretty much impossible to discern on smartphones, I think.

I can't really say if they could have modified the games so that they would be visible also on smartphone screens. Some Android games have a basic version for phones, and a HD version for tablets.

I played a couple of levels. Same genre indeed as Lemmings. Graphics and the general feel remind me somehow of LIMBO, albeit without the gore and not as dark graphics.

For now I consider it "okay", but then I was never a big fan of Lemmings games. In fact I found them mostly irritating, especially the levels (most of them) where you couldn't possibly save all lemmings, but had to sacrifice some. :)
