To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

The Humble Indie Bundle #2 is now running and you can get some great DRM free games for your a donation of your choosing. Games include: Braid, Cortex Command, Machinarium, Osmos and Revenge of the Titans. There is some great games in this bundle and since it is Xmas buy a few of them as gifts for your friends and family and your helping the developers and charity at the same time.
Yes you can possible get these games for free or nearly free. But support the indie devs and give at something. The estimated retail on these games is over $85.

Here is some videos of the games in this bundle:
already owned 2 of he games, but I bought it none the less, I can say that both Osmos and Revenge of the Titans are great games to waste some time on. Looking forward to playing Braid, as I've heard allot of good stuff about it but never came around to buying it. I think my mom (60yrs) will love Machinarium 🙂
Would've loved to pay more then I did but with the upcoming holidays their timing is a bit bad...
sry for double posting but here's the (odd) promo video:

I bought this last night myself mainly for Braid and Machinarium I have never heard of the rest but I will eventually give them a try. Have to admit the whole transaction was quite smooth and downloading these games was pretty quick.
I'm such a sucker for these things. I love it! I noticed Notch of Minecraft fame donated $2,000 USD. Wow.
These games look interesting. Cortex Command and Revenge of the Titans both look insane, so I'll play with those first. After I get done learning how not to die so frequently in Starpoint Gemini 😆
Well if you passed on the Humble Bundle #2 you sure missed out because guess what...?
I just an email and they just gave me last years Humble Bundle #1 for free 😮 10 games for my donation now that is truly amazing and they will get another bigger donation next year. In this free bundle you get World of Goo, Aquaria, Gish, Lugaru HD, Penumbra Overture and Samorost 2 in addition to what was in Bundle 2.
Saw this note on the site:
Help us bring up the average!
Everyone who pays more than $7.34 gets the first Humble Bundle as well!
So go get a few copies and download some presents to someone 🙂
