This week The Indie Mine shared its review of Imminent Games’ Drip Drip for PC. Well we’re back with more coverage as this studio has put together a charity drive around the game. Twenty percent of every PC or Mac purchase of Drip Drip made in the month of February will go towards helping the victims of Hurricane Sandy. The charitable portion of the sales will specifically be donated to the Robin Hood Hurricane Sandy Relief Fund.

It took Congress months to provide help, but I know gamers can do better. If you wish to donate with your purchase of the game then hop on over to the Imminent Games website.

Indie game studio Frogdice, whom we’ve previously interviewed, have announced a promotion to help support the charity Stop Hunger Now. Each sale of their match 3/tower defense/RPG hybrid Tower of Elements will go towards donating a nutritious meal to one of the children or families being aided by the charity.

For those not familiar with Stop Hunger Now, their mission is “To end hunger in our lifetime by providing food and life-saving aid to the world’s most vulnerable.”

Still not convinced? Frogdice is offering a free 10-level demo (available either through the browser or via download) so you can try before you buy. The studio has also been kind enough to present a 50% discount coupon to The Indie Mine readers. The following code only has 20 uses, so act quickly: CFXR000QV

This promotion runs through January 7, 2013, so again, please don’t hesitate.

Despite there being a plethora of indie game bundle options in the past few months, their popularity hasn’t waned one bit. Earlier this year we announced the launch of the Indie Underdog Pack, a group of five indie developers bundling their existing games together to help fund their next projects.

The pack is back with five new games from five new developers. The theme this time centers around the IUP dog mascot Blue the Champion, so 10% of all proceeds will go towards the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals). Check out the games below and be sure to check out the whole article for details on a giveaway contest

Without further ado, here are the five games included in the bundle:

And this likely isn’t all that’s coming to supporters. As certain milestones are reached, bonus items will be given away so be sure to spread the word before the bundle ends on June 24th.

Folks who regularly follow the indie market likely already know about the Humble Indie Bundle or the regular Indie Royale bundles. Well there’s a new horse in that race in the form of the Bundle In A Box – Adventure Bundle.

As the title suggests, this particular bundle features high-quality adventure games including the debut of The Sea Will Claim Everything by developer Jonas Kyratzes. There are six more titles in the pack including:

• Gemini Rue
• Metal Dead
• The Shivah
• Ben There, Dan That!
• Time Gentlemen, Please!
• 1893: A World’s Fair Mystery which is a text-based adventure game available for download for the first time via this bundle.

 All downloads will be DRM-free, and the majority are also available via Steam and Desura. As with most indie bundles, the payment model is a pay-what-you-want system, and the more you pay, the more that keeps the bundle cost down. Metal Dead and The Shivah are only available to consumers who pay more than the average price.

As with a number of indie bundles, games aren’t the only packaged content. The bonuses this time around include the Gemini Rue soundtrack and the Metal Dead Making Of booklet that is available exclusively through this bundle. The former is already available and the latter will unlock when certain sales milestones are hit.

There are good works associated with this bundle. Sales from the Adventure Bundle will go towards supporting The Hellenic Centre for Mental Health and Treatment of Child and Family. The charity work doesn’t stop there as this bundle also marks the launch of the Indie Dev Grant aimed at helping out smaller indie developers. It’s great to see that they’re covering both a charitable organization and also helping give back to fellow developers like themselves.

There are only a few days left in the sale, so go check it out now. There are some great games and bonuses at great prices (currently around $1) and it’s also for a pair of good causes.
