A third Humble Indie Bundle has been revealed, sporting five titles from Finnish developer Frozenbyte, and is due to go on sale later today. The Humble Frozenbyte Bundle, as it is known, is different from the past bundles as it only contains games from a single developer. It is also the first time that not every game will work with Windows, Mac and Linux. The five games included are Trine, Shadowgrounds, Shadowgrounds Survivor, Jack Claw and Splot. Trine and the Shadowgrounds games will all activate on Steam, while the other two are yet to be released. The bundle also marks the outing of a Linux version of Trine. Jack Claw is a prototype that sees the players grabbing and swinging the environment with a claw hand. The game is only available for Windows as of yet. Splot has not been released, and instead those who buy the bundle will receive a pre-order for the game. The bundle is due to go on sale at 9:30 am PST via the Humble Indie Bundle site. The latest Humble Indie Bundle, on sale late last year, grossed $450,000 in less than a day. Humble Indie Bundle co-creator Jeffrey Rosen noted in a talk at GDC this year that, "lots of people send us requests [for bundle inclusion] for games they believe are great, but... we don't see it the same way. It might damage the brand if we put a lot of those kinds of games in there."
