Indie Royale’s Valentine’s Bundle 2.0 & BIT.TRIP Lover’s Bundle Are Two Ways To Show Your Love For Indie Games

It's that day of the year, in which we profess our love for that special someone. Or in some cases, that special something. Like the wonderful world of indie games. And available now are two different ways to do so, while also procuring a good deal of entrainment for very little money down.

First is the latest Indie Royale. Whereas the previous assortment, the Evolved Bundle, contained five games, the Valentine's Bundle lives ups to its name by bestowing an extra bit of love in the form of six titles:

The headliner this time around is Serious Sam 3: BFE, the celebrated prequel to the original Serious Sam. While hardly perfect, it came out around the time of Duke Nukem Forever, and unlike that other attempt at a franchise revival, this one managed to actually do the job of proving some throwback fun.

Also included is Shad'O, which sounds a lot like Psychonauts if it was a tower defense game, Oozi: Earth Adventure, which promises "no puzzles, no punishment, just 100% pure classic platforming fun", Doc Clock: The Toasted Sandwich of Time, which has you creating all manner of inventions out of junk to solve puzzles, Lunnye Devitsy 2013, which appears to be a combination of N+ and Limbo, and Wake, which looks a lot like La-Mulana if the camera was wet with moisture.

Next you have the BIT.TRIP Lovers' Bundle, which is being offered by the creators of the people who run the Game Music Bundle. Unlike the Indie Royale, there are more things to consider, but it's hardly complicated either.

There are three basic tiers to choose from. First, you can pay what you want to get the soundtracks to the six original BIT.TRIP games (Beat, Core, Void, Runner, Fate, and Flux). Or, you can put down ten dollars, which gets you all the aforementioned music, plus the soundtrack to the as of yet unreleased Runner 2 (which is the first direct sequel to any of the BIT.TRIP titles).

And finally, for a flat $20, everything mentioned is included, along with Runner 2 as a whole, in the form of a Steam key that will be valid on the game's release date, February 296th.

The latest Indie Royale is valid for the next five days, whereas the latest Game Music Bundle will be around for six days.
