I still have no clue who this Remute person is and why I should care about his bundles. Preordered anyway.

Maybe?

Something different? Like a bundle not stuffed with shovelware? Ehh, who am I kidding.
I'll go with the traditional "Remute? Hell no."

That would be nice, unless you can't buy the Special Edition extras and have to buy everything again to get those :/

Everything you see on that steam page is videos about games that were released for the Amiga, not actually games.
Here's a list of Amiga games..

I know. What I meant is that there are two versions of the documentary, the "Special Edition" being a extended (240 mins instead of 151 mins) version. If they include the "normal" version in the bundle, I don't know if you can upgrade to the "Special Edition" or if you have to buy the whole package again.
Comment has been collapsed.
but thats a /bundle/ deal. So yes? It should be possible to upgrade
Comment has been collapsed.
I hope so, the Special Edition Upgrade doesn't seem to be available for purchase, though.

apparently all 4 itch.io. games are unbundled and from the 5 steam games only 1 was never bundled and is quite new. 2 other steam games were bundled but not at indiegala, bundlestars, indieroyale, DIG! or humble so there is maybe a chance you missed them aswell.

Awesome! Interesting! Can't wait to see which those are^^

Looks like Gunworld 2 (http://store.steampowered.com/app/514220/) is confirmed in this bundle as one of the already bundled steam games :

No preorder for Remute bundles from me - the music is not really my world, and the games are more miss than hit for me :\
Comment has been collapsed.
It incited me to finally download this game... but this first revealed game is repeat :(
Comment has been collapsed.
Not interested in GunWorld 2 at all, but I really wish Remute would tell us more about the point & clicky... and by "more", I mean say which game it is exactly. :o/
Comment has been collapsed.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/385840/ seems to almost certainly be the PnC mentioned. The only other recent PnC release (excluding HOGs) was the deluxe DLC for the F2P http://store.steampowered.com/app/542380/.
Well, and http://store.steampowered.com/app/492630/, but it's not to Remute's retro style, so it's out. :P
Comment has been collapsed.
"The Beard in the Mirror" would fit the retro, P&C and sorta fits to 'released mid-october'. Looks fun! Let's cross our fingers! :3
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh. I actually have the beard game on my wishlist. Damn. O_o

If you are wrong i might kick you from the group :P
Comment has been collapsed.
That said, the two I mentioned are literally the only two PnC releases [on Steam] of any sort that were released within October. Cyanic has since nixed the DLC one.
Past that, there aren't any PnC releases within the past few months other than the third one I mentioned, Telltale's Batman, the Gabriel Knight Steam releases (already bundled) and two or three HOGs.
When I say it's "almost certain".. well, I wouldn't bet against it, anyway. :P
That said, the "MID-October" is a bit concerning (and much better identifies the F2P one), and Cyanic is never known for his reliability. Remute is usually good on confirmations, may be worth holding out for one if you can be sure you'll log on the site again before the bundle goes live.
It's safe to assume it'll be one of the two, at least.
Remute: 1 x never bundled and released in mid-october.
Remute: point and click adventure
cyanic: I haven't heard of a PnC as DLC.
Comment has been collapsed.
Now he said "the point and click has a name that sounds like music theory." .. idk..
Comment has been collapsed.
These are the only recent PnC-esque non-HOG/VR games I didn't mention, that I'm aware of:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/394700/
http://store.steampowered.com/app/504380/
http://store.steampowered.com/app/536430/
None of them come close to matching expectations.
In fact, the closest I could find to "Music Theory" released in October was this dubious entry:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/536530/
(Which isn't even a PnC.)
Either way, if he's nixed Beard, I'd recommend keeping expectations very low. The few other decent-looking PnCs released within the past few months aren't ones Remute'd include in his bundles. :X
Comment has been collapsed.
Daaamn, I'd be sooo excited if it was any of those. Especially the first two! But yeah, very unlikely too. :P
Oh well, we'll see! I pre-ordered anyways ^^'
But omg, the third game's screenshot!!!
Comment has been collapsed.
Well I'm happy I didn't preorder in the end, I would have been really disappointed if I had. Now, Octave seems like an ok game to me, so I'm hoping it's going to be bundled at IG in a not-so-distant future.
Comment has been collapsed.
Mid-October release, music theory fits this one http://store.steampowered.com/app/417990/ -- but that's a VN, not a PnC at all. Doesn't really fit Remute either.
I'm usually a fan of Remute bundles, but I'm skipping this time -- I think I'm a bit out-bundled at this time of the year. (That a word? It should be a word. You know what I mean ;)). I'd like Beard, but I don't think it's in it -- and even if it is, I won't regret skipping, I'm sure. (And if I do, there's always coins...)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm. Might be an interesting bundle. However the last time I regretted not pre-purchasing a Groupees bundle was... never, so I'll pass for now I think. I can always buy it on release, perhaps for a little bit more, but truth be told I saved a lot of money not pre-purchasing in the past, so I'm sure I can afford buying it at full price in case it's really good :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Exactly. Given what Groupees has been doing for years now, that's money saved in the long run and disappointment averted in the bigger picture of things.

However the last time I regretted not pre-purchasing a Groupees bundle
Keep in mind Remute can't be associated with Groupees on the whole. He curates his bundles on his own, and they're quite consistent in theme. Now, most people don't like Remute bundles AS WELL (mainly as he often intentionally includes low rated games, and specializes in retro graphics), but you do still have a far better idea of what you're in for than with most other Groupees bundles of late.
As always, you can change the number in the URL to view previous Remute bundles. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
So, who is official Groupees and who is just a feral curator? Is Miller official?
Comment has been collapsed.
Miller is a community curator.
Other community curators I can name off the top of my head include Remute, Jamesbuc, and the now-banished Shoppa. WGN bundles are community curated, as well, though the curator involved changes regularly.
Or at least, in theory he's still only a community curator- He's become so dominant in bundles of late that I'm not at all sure if he hasn't pulled some sort of coup. :X
I've seen a few Johnny bundles, but other than that I don't think official bundles ever make a point of associating any of the official curators directly with them. You can find the official staff listing here (at the bottom of the page).

Pre-ordered. I've never used/played on Amiga and I will test it with the Amiga Forever

pre-ordered, hope some itch.io games are also Greenlight games.

Huh. Also, I still don't understand this Amiga thing. What is it exactly and where would I use the key I got for it?

It doesn't say how to use the key, though and is this like a free trial sort of thing or permanent thing? I'm just so confused, sorry.
