So far I've tried McDroid, and Master of Alchemy. Wimp I have also played, but it was on the iPhone, so I won't be judging it until I play the PC version. I'm not doing number ratings, because I haven't played them nearly enough to fully judge. These are just initial impressions.
It's a tower defense game with a twist. If you enjoy cell shaded graphics, and of course TD games, it's worth a shot. I booted it up last night before bed, told myself I'd only spend about 20 minutes, and lost an hour and a half before I looked at a clock. So it definitely sucked me in.
It reminds me of crazy machines, but it's all about manipulating liquids between the three states (solid, liquid and gas) while getting the right colors (in the right state) to the right containers to complete the level. If you're one of those that insists on getting a gold medal on every objective, some of the levels may be frustrating.

Yeah, I probably should've mentioned that, my bad. The twist is how you make money - you have to farm berries. You plant seeds in plots, and to supplement your standard gun towers, there are "plant" towers that increase the fertility of plants in the area, as well as enhance turrets that are in the fertile areas. When the berries are ready, you have to gather them up and "sell" them to your ship, then you can money like normal. The enemies will try to munch on your berries and otherwise corrupt your berry patches, so you're constantly on the move defending, buying towers, upgrading, gathering, depositing, etc. I also forgot to mention repairing a turret is as simple as standing next to it, and you can repair up to four turrets at once, if your arms can reach all of them. You can also repair your ship, which is what you're ultimately trying to defend. On top of the standard coin currency, there is also diamonds, which are used for upgrades, as well as traps I believe. There are quite a few upgrades, one of my favorites so far being an arm that will repair you when you get close to the ship.
Overall it's a very well thought out game, with quite a bit of strategy, and I'm diggin' it.

If youre interested in the other episodes aswell, I just received an email from Indie Game Stand with a 30% discount code for Season Upgrade for Cognition EP1.

sounds good but even 30% off $20 is too much for me considering i haven't played the one from the bundle yet

5 of these 6 games are on steam greenlight. i've voted for cognition and mcdroid based on people's descriptions here. if you like or think you'd like any of them, i suggest you vote!

just wanna say misterhaan, it's pretty awesome that you made links for people to check the games out ^ I've gone through Greenlight voting and there's so many games to vote on, that after awhile my eyes nearly cross lol Check out Greenlight people! Make your vote count.

i'd already looked up the links for the indie game bundle wikia so it was easy enough to copy and paste them here. i've also thought of making a collection of all the greenlight games that have been featured in bundles, but haven't done it yet.
i've only voted on 23 titles on greenlight so far but i keep meaning to do it more often. some titles i've looked at though i don't feel like i should vote yes or no.

by the way, i've since gone and created that collection of all bundle games on greenlight. i left out postal 2 since it got greenlit and is actually on steam, but i did include ones that were greenlit but aren't yet available on steam. also, i'm now up to 31 votes!

I've played only in Wimp, but the game is really nice. Well, I would like it has another bonus to collect (toilet paper, oh God, why? :P), but it is really playable and not so easy platformer, especially if you want to collect all of this toilet paper. And it has quite nice graphic and music. 8/10

Have you played any of the games in the bundle? If so, give them a rating from 0-10 and/or tell us what you think of them.
