The 'Humble Staff Picks Bundle: Scribble' seems like a nice deal for Linux gamers

g000hI use Steam, GOG, Humble, itch.io as well as resellers (like Fanatical) and don't have any particular bias towards any of them.

Whenever I have downloaded DRM free titles from Humble, I haven't experienced any problems myself. Also noting that Humble also provide Bittorrent links, as an alternative to downloading over web-browser. They also provide md5 hashes of the download files so you can check that your downloads/torrents have completed correctly and authentically.

If you are having web download problems, maybe fire up Transmission (bittorrent client) and download the file that way instead.

I've never had especially troubling download issues with those other sites either. Yeah, a download may fail once in a while (most likely due to line problems at my end) but I kick it off again and pick it up the next time.

Yeah, i actually did that, albeit lately i more like Tixati then Transmission.

But with torrent there is problems too - there is not much seeds in swarm for Humble torrents and webseed which humble hosting is rather slow and not willing to transfer data too.
I cannot recall any problem ever before Humble was sold, so i kind of worrying if they started to shifting away from DRM-FREE to simple steam resell.

codythedragondudekeep in mind though for amd mesa at least for me aragami has graphics corruptions and actually keeps freezing the OS
i have tested it on xubuntu solus and antergos all three yield the same result

Its not just Mesa. It's the same for me on Nvidia. I contacted the Dev's about it and I don't think it will be fixed.

really? that's insane thought it was just a mesa issue that is really weird unity is scary

I picked up the bundle. If anyone uses windows and is interested in the windows games in it, i will send the keys to you.

dvdAragami and Bioshock seem like okay games, i may get it for them. Has anyone played the Shenzen I/O game? Is it worth to buy?

It's a great game if you like complex programming games like TIS-100. The game comes with a nice back story and even material to print out like in the old adventure games. For me that game alone was worth buying the bundle for. There is also a little card game as part of the back story that is really well done.

Shenzhen I/O is definitely worth it, even if you felt TIS-100 was a bit inaccessible. No easier though. It hurts my brain, but I'm loving it.
