Psyringe: Humm. It seems that the simple suggestion of creating "an unnamed Metroidvania title inspired by Cave Story" can lead you to rank 5 in the poll, without _anything_ to show, Interesting.
Just take a look what's going on on the Kickstarer page ;-)

People pay for promises these days.
Are the results of this poll reliable?
Yesterday, it showed Dwarf Miner as having 29%, earlier today it showed the exact same % for Jack Houston and the Necronauts and now it moved to Under The Ocean.
What gives?

See here. Apparantly the earlier results weren't reliable but falsified by people who voted several times for their favorite candidate. Supposedly they fixed that now, but the earlier votes are lost.
I'm curious, do you get separate Steam keys when you buy this bundle or one bundle key?

All keys (Steam and Desura) are separate.

Thanks, still not sure if I should get it since I own nearly all the games but it's good to know that I could at least gift the games I already have.

"Ben There, Dan That!" and "Time Gentlemen, Please!" are combined in one key.

Ah, right, forgot about that.
Only 10 hours left on this bundle -- grab it quick!
It's over now.

5,099 bundles sold - while definitely less than the hosts expected, it's hopefully enough for them to keep going. They probably could have sold more with better timing (lots of bundles on offer right now; and The Shivah having been featured prominently in a bundle just prior to this one) and a different pricing system.
regarding that the bundle only contained adventures (and, as you know: "adventures are dead" ;-)) and the only really "famous" one (Gemini rue) has been in other bundles before, I think selling more than 5000 bundles is not bad at all. Though I believe, too, that they had expected more.

Yes, I'm sure they would have sold more if Gemini Rue and Time Gentlemen Please had not been in a bundle before. And more BTA if The Shivah had not just been in the bundle. And if more people had heard of Metal Dead and TSWCE.
