and, basically, the loss of that 29 days would not be worth the extra you'd get from waiting to discount for this bundle specifically. Hopefully that makes sense and gives some insight into why they've done it that way, as weird as it seems!

5 days ago 0 0 0 0

I mainly agree, it's hard, 15% is too low overall IMO for the games that aren't discounted... Difficulty is, if you as a dev had your last discount end 29 days ago, you can't discount again for this bundle launch! But, not doing that means you'd have 29 days where you COULD discount but didn't.

Nice one Moo, thanks for sharing! Always really great to see other indies being open with numbers!

Sorry! :D In terms of individual discounts, aligning them all together would mean the devs lose out as it's generally best to discount as often as possible, but you can't within 30d of the end of your last one. It would mean potentially weeks 'lost' in the year of discount time!

I don't think so! My own bundles show the bundle amount I specifically set for them in that location, it's the overall bundle discount applied on top of the individual discounts for each game.

Today's stream will kick off an hour later, at 2PM BST, and the schedule going forward will be 2-5PM!

See you there! πŸ‘‹

Amazing bundle idea. There's a 15% discount on it from what I can see?

WINDROSE needs more time to cook. The combat is just... not good. We swapped back to THE PLANET CRAFTER mid-stream and we got our first RAIN!

Huge thanks to @psykit.tv for the raid towards the end! πŸ₯°πŸ’–

More planetary crafting tomorrow with our pal Katyes!

"Goto your Steamβ„’ library

Leave a review for a smaller game you like

Now tell me what it was"

There's a very crudely drawn Steam logo in the middle. In the bottom right, there's an even crudely-er drawn frog, and the sideways text reads "I am a graphic design terrorist"

With regards to that last repost, reviews can mean a lot to smaller developers, so I'm gonna put out a little call to action. Everyone following me? DO THIS NOW! I'm asking for replies so more folks pick this up, and continue it. Please take this graphic and ask your followers to do the same!

Good stream today! WINDROSE is a pretty standard early access survival game so far in my books, with frankly quite unpleasant combat...

But we will persevere tomorrow as we get our first pirate ship! πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈπŸ¦œ

I will be starting a stream schedule next week, Monday 13th at 13:00 BST!

We’ll be kicking off with… THE PLANET CRAFTER!

Everyone always compares AETHUS and TPC so I thought it was about time I find out what all the fuss is about!

Really excited for streaming, come along and join me :)

I'm back from Easter break! Back to working on QOL stuff for AETHUS tomorrow!

Oh and next week... I'm going to start streaming on Twitch again for the first time in a decade?! Probably not development (too stressful!), but games!

What games would you be keen on watching?
