New Humble Botanicula *Debut* - PC, Mac, Linux - Pay What You Want, get Botanicula, Machinarium & Samorost 2 + BTA bonuses

Quote from tannersarms : I am not sure. I believe in previous bundles, buying before any bonuses are announced got you them, even if you didn't beat the average. I am not sure that is always the case though. What I would suggest you do is just buy at a price you are comfortable with now, then at any time HIB allows you to go back and add to the amount you paid. For example, just this week I was able to donate more to my HIB4 payment to BTA, thus securing additional keys for Cave Story + and Gratutitous Space Battles. But I'm pretty sure this is the first time Windosill has been in any bundle at all. Maybe you got it in a Steam sale?

Windosill wasn't in any previous bundle that I'm aware of. It is, however, a fun bit of game if you play the free in-browser demo [windosill.com] (yes, there is a game there and it starts out almost totally black).

Considering that it's $2.99 on Steam [steampowered.com] right now, and paying above the average gets you just that additional game (assuming you don't value the movie), you could look at the bundle breakdown a couple of ways:
Botanicula ($5) + Windowsill (2.99) = $7.99 for both on Steam right now
Or just pick up Botanicula for $5 and wait for Windosill to go on sale again (it was $1.02 at its lowest [steamgamesales.com]). In that case:
Botanicula ($5) + Windosill ($1.02) = $6.02 for one on Steam now and one later.

I paid $8.84 for the bundle. I didn't have the games that were In the previous bundle.. so i guess that made it worth it to me. Plus the money is going towards a good cause!

Your math is flawless, but I'd wait until the bundle is in its second week before making the decision to buy the bonus game on Steam or by beating the average. There hasn't been a Humble product in recent memory where stuff wasn't added in week two. You can make the $5 purchase now and then add more later (even after the deal is done) and you will get the Beat The Average games (assuming your total beats the average!).
