Not personally, though I’ve heard it’s a solid platformer and not the shovelware licensed crap you’d expect.
I’ve been assured the entire bundle is literally shovelware. Every game is but a mere asset flip. You’re better off either pirating each one or paying more than the bundle price for one game. This entire bundle is an insult to gaming. An apocalypse of a month. I’m posting in this thread to let you know that I am very smart, and I’m pausing. Proud pauser. Anyone who purchases these eight games for twelve dollars is maybe the dumbest person in the world.
I paid full price for C&C Remastered & Surviving the Aftermath so clearly I’m as dumb as I thought I was.

The problem with C&C Remaster is that you can buy the full collection on Origin and use OpenRA to get a mostly better experience. Not really interested in Planet Zoo – the only attraction for me this month is SpongeBob for my kids, but they have enough to play right now, so I think I’ll pass.
I look at Planet Zoo, and I see its a Frontier Developments game, and every time I try one of their games I feel like I need to bring my own fun to enjoy it. :(
They also made Planet Coaster, right? I think they like making sandboxes, but there’s never really any challenge or pushback to the management game.
That was the last one I purchased as well. That was March. April was Ghostrunner, Destroy All Humans, etc…though as @Stepsongrapes mentioned, if you’re currently working your way through a 3-month, 6-month or 12-month pre-purchase plan you can still skip but won’t get the $4 off prompt when you do, it’ll just bump your plan end month out another month.
Correct. Even their Jurassic Park games seem sterile and needing “fun”.
I really wish there was a proper successor to Zoo Tycoon out there. I like Planet Zoo, from what I was able to play (its processor requirements are a bit much for my current system) but for all that I think it’s better about including some “sim” than other Frontier games of late, it’s still a recent Frontier game for sure. The animals just go away towards making up for that.
I paused last month, went to give it a skip/pause again today to see if I’d get the discount, and got the $4 off deal.
First time that triggered for me. :)
Remember to pause before this Tuesday.

New humble monthly bundle:
Star Wars Squadrons
Phoenix Point: Year One Edition
Call of the Sea
Gamedec
Pumping Jack
Siege Survival: Gloria Victis
I am Fish
Superhot: Mind Control Delete
That’s a pretty nice bundle. I’ve been wanting to try Siege Survival, and though I’ve got Star Wars Squadrons from a PS+ offering, wouldn’t mind having it on Steam.
Also: Call of the Sea would be very interesting to me, except about 6 months ago I ducked into the Call of the Sea thread here to get some impressions, and basically major plot points of the game are completely spoiled there in plain text. So if that game interests you, DO NOT read much about it at all, if you can.
Yeah some decent games this month!
I AM FISH!
Not bad, I’m in for $8 just for a permanent owned copy of SW:Squadrons alone.
Easy pause for gamepass renters. 5 repeats, but 2 were recently removed if you didnt play them
Squadrons, phoenix and fish are currently on there.
Very true, I just want to own SW:Squadrons outright, after it drops off game pass in 6 months.
Oh great now more people can be disappointed by Squadrons, but at a discount.
Would be a good bundle if I didn’t already buy Squadrons for 1 dollar, didn’t finish Call of the Sea on Gamepass and didn’t buy Gamedec on Epig for 5 bucks.
So, pause.
