Incidentally, this site is almost unusable on an android phone. Flash and detail popups that are always floating off the side of the screen, despite scrolling. It would also be nice if there were links to the market so I could read reviews of the games.
What about those of us who already bought Osmos and Goo several times over in previous Humble Bundles? If I bought this it would only be for the Android ports.
Something like this needs to be done for independent music artists, too.

Now I know what Android users feel like when people announce endless iPhone-only mobile apps. I was super bummed that I missed the last Humble Bundle, since it was chock full of games I had been meaning to buy. This one is smaller, though, and the having the "cool" feature targeted at a group I'm not in makes me feel like the bundle isn't really worth paying attention to. This is the first time I have ever felt left…
Being a software developer, I have never understood the decision on why to essentially limit the number of customers you can have. I think the only thing worse than not supporting the majority of platforms is not making them have feature parity.
Permissions: All apps except Anomaly only asked for Network Communication. Anomaly needs Network Communication, Modify/Delete USB storage, and Prevent Phone from Sleeping.

We are currently beta testing an app that will organize your downloads and provide updates in a central spot for Humble Bundles (like the Amazon Marketplace), which should be ready for the public in the next couple of days. Additionally, the apps themselves will notify you if there is an update, akin to how Sparkle works on Mac OS X (Adium, et al. use this). Finally, you can download updates from our website similar…
> We are currently beta testing an app that will organize your downloads and provide updates in a central spot for Humble Bundles I'm sorry to be a downer here, but this really bothers me. The Android Market is built such that 1) each version of each app has reviews, 2) each version has permissions, 3) updates for all of my apps come from the same place, 4) the apps come from a single trusted source, signed , and 5)…
Side-loaded apps still have permissions.

Also, if you absolutely must have centralized distribution for each and every app, there are other platforms that are more than happy to provide that.
Nexus owners: Edge didn't work on my Nexus (neither Edge Classic nor Extended). The other HD apps seem to work great. Permissions: All apps except Anomaly only asked for Network Communication. Anomaly needs Network Communication, Modify/Delete USB storage, and Prevent Phone from Sleeping.
