Data Jammers: FastForward, and Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space and Dr. Blob's Organism are all by the same developer, Digital Eel.
Digital Eel has quite a few free games, including Dr. Blob's Organism, available on their site. The free game Strange Adventures in Infinite Space is apparently the predecessor to Weird Worlds:

Dungeon Defenders is awesome. If you don't already own it, it is worth getting for that price alone.

I already own Dungeon Defenders, and the only other one that even peaks my interest is Containment: The Zombie Puzzler so I think this is a pass.

Re: Ultimate Indie Bundle Thread - Humble, Royale, Gala, etc.
For anyone that bought Groupees Build A Bundle, they just got Steam keys for Dark Fall: Lost Souls, so check your account page if you had bought this game and were missing the Steam key. They added Dark Souls: Lights Out Director's Cut as a bonus for anyone who buys or has bought the game, as a DRM-free download (the download has both games).

Just noticed that the "Ironclads Collection" in Indie Gala 5 is actually a Steam key for all 5 games in the Ironclads series. In that one key you get these 5 games:
Those normally sell for $10 each, for a value of $50. So if those games look like your cup of tea, this bundle is a terrific value. I've amended my previous post.
- Ironclads: American Civil War
- Ironclads: High Seas
- Ironclads: Schleswig War 1864
- Ironclads: Anglo Russian War 1866

Re: Ultimate Indie Bundle Thread - Humble, Royale, Gala, etc.
Note that Indie Gala IV had Disciples II: Gallean's Return on a higher tier, while this Indie Gala V has Disciples II: Rise of The Elves on the highest tier. Which means that if you bought both from Indie Gala, you'll have the majority of content in the Disciples II Gold edition.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discipl...s_and_versions
As for other games, there's people that like Ninja Blade and Puzzle Kingdoms. Space Empires IV got generally good reviews when it was released in 2000, although this is the Deluxe version released in 2006:
http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/space-empires-iv
http://www.gamerankings.com/browse.h...numrev=3&site=
Also keep in mind that the bonus music and games will only be unlocked for those that bought the highest tier. You could wait to see what's unlocked if you're still undecided.

Re: Ultimate Indie Bundle Thread - Humble, Royale, Gala, etc.
Something not noted about the Indie Royale Graduation Bundle before you purchase it is that there's downloads of bonus material for AirMech and The Void.
The AirMech bonus material is some concept art, wallpapers, poster art, and character art.
The Void bonus material includes some concept art, the English manual in PDF, and a 4 track MP3 sampler of the soundtrack.
Want even more bonus content for The Void? The developers have an official torrent of bonus material, available here:
http://www.tension-game.com/index_en.php
The thing is massive, 4.17GB, due to the soundtrack being in FLAC. Note that the original name of the game is Tension, hence the name of official website and some of the bonus materials.
[Update] English subtitles for some of the Russian language videos have been created. You can download them below:
Subtitles for Interview.wmv
Subtitles for KRI_Part1.wmv and KRI_Part2.wmv

Inside you will find almost everything of interest that was created during development:
- The complete original soundtrack in four virtual disks contains all the tracks that made it into the game, all unreleased tracks that didn't make it into the game for some reason, poems and mantras and re-mastered tracks for the English edition of the game.
- 6 trailers including the earliest gameplay trailer, 2 videos from KRI (Russian GDC) and a Game Music Video from Pathologic by Halfgild Wynac.
- Almost all the artwork and concepts from the game, even in print quality! The Void poster anyone? ;o)
- Know Russian? Then you'll find the three lectures on game design by Nikolay Dybowskiy read at KRI most interesting! As well as a video interview for the LKI magazine
