They are (in no particular order)&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Gratuitous Space Battles<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">This is my latest game. It&#8217;s a space strategy affair, where you design spaceships and put together big space fleets, but the battles are stratengely hands-off. :D<\/span><br \/>\n<\/address>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>Castle Vox<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\">This is by Sillysoft. You remember they made Lux right? It&#8217;s influenced by games like Risk. It&#8217;s a conquer the world strategy game, and great fun<\/span><br \/>\n<\/address>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Evochron: Mercenary<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\">By StarWraith. They have been making excellent space games like this for a while. Watch some videos of it and then tell me you don&#8217;t want to own it. I dare you. Awesome graphics, and reminds me of the days of Elite. Ahhhh&#8230;.<\/span><br \/>\n<\/address>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #808000;\"><strong>Fate Of The World<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #808000;\">By Red Redemption. This is the climate-change game. Save the world from Jeremy Clarkson and Exxon. You know you want to. I do my bit by not flying long-haul, but it&#8217;s easier to just buy this game instead.<\/span><br \/>\n<\/address>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Smugglers IV<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<address style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Another space strategy game that evokes memories of Elite. This one is by Niels bauer who has been making indie PC games as long, or maybe even longer than moi.<\/span><\/address>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t a humble bundle, but\u00a0 it&#8217;s a self-confident and proud one. In fact, as bundles go, it has has en-suite bathrooms and 24 hour porterage, and a helpful concierge called Gerald.\u00a0 The main bonus is that all the money goes to the developers (BMTMicro take a tiny fee for processing payments). SMTG doesn&#8217;t make anything from it, and I only make my share of it (from GSB).<\/p>\n<p>There is a webpage with a video about the bundle <a href=\"http:\/\/www.showmethegames.com\/bundle1.php\">here<\/a>. Which is also where you can <a href=\"http:\/\/www.showmethegames.com\/bundle1.php\">buy it<\/a>. Video embedded below. <strong>PLEASE<\/strong> retweet, or facebook it, or write witty forum comments over the interwebs about it. The bundle lasts until the 12th June. Forget all that crap about E3, that&#8217;s only for shoddy console ports that will cost $100 and have DRM in anyway. Buy this instead :D<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"480\" height=\"390\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/-4gKsGbRgb0?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;rel=0\" \/><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"390\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/-4gKsGbRgb0?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB&amp;rel=0\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know that little side-project website ShowMeTheGames that I talk about now and then?
