It's that time again, folks: it's the Humble Weekly Bundle!

This week's Humble Weekly Bundle is back to the traditional indie game spectrum we expect from Humble, and some great games are included for an even greater price.

This week's games are as follows!

First up is Jamestown, an arcade shooter supporting up to four players, set in a neo-classical era. I personally own this game, and for anyone who loves either arcade shooters or quickplay arcade games, this is a must-have. And for even more hectic fun, play this multiplayer.

Next, it's Closure, a very interesting-looking platform puzzler which has won many prestigious indie awards. The game revolves around the use of light to "phase objects in and out of reality". It game looks very spooky and fun.

S.P.A.Z is up next, and it's an indie classic. If you haven't picked this up in one of the various Steam sales it has been in, you must buy this bundle. Space Pirates and Zombies is a extremely addictive and interesting top-down space shooter, with a diverse universe and objectives to keep the game intense and engaging.

Shatter is a "brick-breaking" game which coins itself as a fresh take on the genre, with physics-based balls which alter trajectory as they fly. As with many indie games, this one has a great soundtrack.

If you pay more than $6, you'll get the following games as well.

Dungeon Defenders is a very popular RPG and tower defense hybrid which supports up to four players. It's got extremely good graphics for a game of this price. The Anniversary Pack DLC is also included.

Defense Grid Gold is another tower defense game. Can you really go wrong with this genre? Although I haven't personally played this, I have heard great things; it's often called a classic of the genre and it's got amazing reviews, so give it a try.

On top of this, you will also get the soundtracks to the game included as part of the Bundle. As always with Humble, you'll be supporting some great charities and getting yourself a bunch of games cheaply.

Until next week's update, enjoy the Humble Bundle, and remember that the Steam Sale is upon is, but Winter is still coming. I don't know if my wallet can take it.
