Gambling on groupees without proper hints.

Had all the steam games (Cypher wasn't enough reason for me) in the Cyberpunk bundle minus one (okay 2 with primordia from the grab bag that made up for it somewhat).

Have a bump Lugum :-)

The bundle was pretty good if you preordered especially if you don't have the majority of the games. To get the full bundle at over double the price if you didn't preorder is a pretty steep increase. Thanks for the chances :)

Yeah and with having 7600 games i can probably expect to have alot already every time. :p
Which would happen alot less with people that got like <2000 games.

Thank you for the chance, at least you're still gifting the extra games away, and primordia seems like a nice game.

Yeah, isn't bad getting slowly to that level 8 otherwise. :)

It does look like a nice game but Wadjet Eye Games are made with AGS and as other games made with that too, it does has it's restrictions, limited locations at a time, limited item (interaction), while i loved adventure games since the 90's i think that was those were the fun parts, having like 10 screens, 50 items you could try on each and every thing. But maybe that's my quirk. :p

Also i found a game breaking bug in The Shivah and dev never bothered to reply (i think even after 2 mails) so another reason for me to dislike the dev.

I'm a big fan of point and click games, so I'm surprised to hear that about Wadjet eye.

Are you sure that they received your email? I know sometimes things just end up in spam for some reason because mails are funny. : (

Well i said 2 mails, but might have been 2 different sources, maybe mail and facebook (and yes maybe they aren't active at that either)?

Been over 1, maybe 2 years. I barely know sometimes what i had for dinner last week. :p

I think most companies don't check their fb these days.
Not sure if you'd want to re-email them but if you do, I hope they get back to you this time.
Posting on their forums seems to be working to some effect. (I saw the devs reply on a Blackwell ephiphany thread)

It's ok tho, I think everyone doesn't remember what they had unless it's something special.

Well i would have to replay the game to remember the bug and then that bug has to happen again.
I think they didn't reply on the blackwell thread (recently) either, at least back then.
Some just reply once a game gets out and then neglect it, then again alot don't even bother to reply at all.

Been playing https://store.steampowered.com/app/595560/Legend_of_Hand/ guess you might like that one too (if you haven't so).

Oh well, maybe I misremembered.
I hope it was a mistake on their part and not something they do often.

Thanks for the recommendation, I'll check it out :')

I'll just say thank you and bump this thread with a nice picture, since I'm not familiar with groupees and their bundles ΓΆ.ΓΆ
But I hope next time, you'll get more games that you're missing, in case you make the same mistake we all do and repeat something after you swore to not do it :)

On behalf of the SG community, I would like to thank you for not gambling responsibly.
I hope the new additions, few though they may be, manage to bring you some joy.
Wadjet Eye Games seems to be active on Twitter, so if you ever feel like providing feedback in the future, you could try that (and hopefully that doesn't just deepen your frustration).

Thank you, and i will definitely try the Shivah again sometime soon, and well gamewise hope i won't run into the bug again, programming wise i do, but will definitely use twitter to contact them a next time.

thanks a lot mate, for the Living Colour track too! never listened to them that much, I should definitely give them more opportunities.. it's been years I haven't listened to "love rears" (and I know only their very first albums, so that says enough about how much i've been listening to them XD).. by the way your youtube link has the timestamp at 3+ minutes so I had my speakers too loud and got an awesome Corey Glover refrain in my room without an intro =P

Your roomies/neighbours must have been happy with that. :p

Same, to be honest i don't know much songs from them either, I have a big music collection from alot of artists, and i keep telling myself to just put the songs on random, but always end up just playing the hits you know, someday i have to going to change that. But always loved this song.

They still rocking it (last album from 2017). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yE0RnuaWE0

wow, nice one! and yeah, same here.. my father has always been a vinyl and tape collector and i've been a CD collector since the '90s, but in the end I keep on playing just the 20-25 bands/artists I have on my mp3 reader and listen to songs here and there on youtube, forgetting about them after some days.. but I've got a huge physical collection too.. xD yeah it's an awesome song, gotta explore a little bit more their discography =)

It's always great that people see that Groupees bundles aren't all bad, though I do admit that they don't get the same sort of quality as what people who buy purely for the games hope for.

However, Groupees is a decent site (or sometimes the only good option) for what they are good at curating, as in comics/ebooks and more so all sorts of music/ (mostly because most of the other sites who do that either don't focus on it or aren't really catering). I don't think you will find any other of these bundle sites hosting heavy metal, chiptune, or celtic music bundles or those obscure comic book authors. Also I do like that Groupees and Fanatical bundle themes seem less forced (Humble and IndieGala seem to have very clickbaity bundle titles).

As you can tell, I use Groupees a decent amount, but I don't often gamble on stuff (unless I have a hunch that the bundle will be at least decent enough for me). If they replaced one or two of the games in the bundle, it would have been worth my preorder (but my standard isn't that high)

The grab bag worked out for me, as my friend already had Primordia so she gave it to me instead!:)
