Indie games are one of the biggest trends in gaming these days and the latest Humble Bundle lets eager gamers enter the Matrix themselves or just try their hands on indie development with the GameMaker applications. This bundle should be a no-brainer for even the poorest of indie developers.
Usually, Humble Bundle allows players to purchase a selection of games worth about $150 to $250, like the ongoing Sierra bundle, and on the rare occasion $300+, but the "Humble GameMaker Bundle" is worth much more than most bundles, it might even be the most affordable bundle yet.
The GameMaker applications are tools made for making game development easier and the full "GameMaker: Studio Pro" cost $149.99 which is a hefty price for the hobby developer. Humble Bundle lets its customers buy GameMaker: Studio Pro and a selection of games with their source code for $1, the HTML5 module and more games for the above average price of $12, and three more modules plus games for $15. Just the GameMaker Pro and modules alone cost $1250 if bought piece by piece, though they're "only" $800 with the master collection which includes a few more features.
This bundle is a must for anyone who wants to get into game development.
