Leaf ruled out a second bundle in this tweet https://twitter.com/moonscript/status/1271201244254629888 . I can't blame them, they've certainly had their work cut out (support department swamped with extra work etc.). I hope this extra visibility boosts itch.io in the longer term (using their app for this bundle has certainly changed my perception of itch.io). I almost feel we need a itch.io support bundle! With the bundle ending, perhaps Humble or Steam will have their own bundles starting (hint hint)?
Your link's URL is broken and you may want to fix it, you probably mean https://jfranmora.itch.io/kaotikshop. According to the first post in this thread, in future items will be added to the support collection, rather than the bundle itself.
Not the correct place to ask, but yes you will have them. There is a tab under My purchases that allows you to see the bundle and then download wathever you want
When logged in to the website, the items are under:
Then either (option 1 might be preferable):
Submitted a few days ago before submissions closed, but not sure the algorithm actually grabbed it.
Trying it again this way to see if there was an issue with my submission's formatting.
My best guess is that the games haven't been fully updated and your games along with a few others might still be processing. Again this is just a guess based on the game's counter on the bundle moving 20 or so games but the last submissions definitely exceeded 20 or so games. Hard to say for certain tho.
No worries. I figured it might be taking a bit, but I also wanted to try this just in case having any non-link text in my first reply broke the algorithm.
This isn't the best place to ask. Perhaps, make a new thread or comment via, https://itch.io/post/1486449.
As for buying that many gifts, do be careful on how you distribute them and which account they end up attaching to. Apparently there are cases of people applying the bundle twice to one account. Support is swapped with request at this time so if something goes wrong it might take a while till they can get back to you.
As for buying them at the same time in bulk. No idea.

aw bummer, well all i can do is hope they see mine and make an exception since i have a good ass excuse
a bit disappointed, was really excited about trying to be a part of this, but i’m at least really glad it did as well as it did
Leaf liked the idea of a trans rights bundle: https://twitter.com/Enichan/status/1271579282947661824 . Maybe that'll be next?
i’m seconding the motion for a second bundle or a deadline extension. i was dying to contribute but for a while i was too busy archiving police brutality videos... :(
Some amazing games have been submitted after the deadline, will be a shame if they don't get to be a part of the bundle.
I second that. I hope all those creators that were late are able to join this great bundle
I know a lot of people who had no idea this bundle even existed and were really bummed out on missing it, me included. I also think 10 days was too short and that there wasn't enough hype or press around it. it would be too bad if they did not extend it
There was a huge level of hype and press around the bundle the levels of which I've never seen. There were articles in pcgamer, Kotaku, the verge, Eurogamer, polygon etc. There were multiple reddit threads, the bundle even got it's own subreddit. It was all over Twitter as well.
I'm barely ever on here, but damn I'm pissed! I absolutely would have thrown in $5 or $10 for hundreds of games! BLM is important dammit!!
Where the hell was this posted, why wasn't it stickied on reddit?!
Oh, well, I didn't see any of that until after the bundle ended so I don't know where I was but I still think 10 days was a short time for such a bundle. Especially since since it started to gain more traction towards the end and since they were getting way more money than they originally wanted and would have probably got a lot more if they extended it.
On the bundle download page it says:
Note: We will be updating this page soon, we know it's difficult to navigate so many games. We know you want a button to add show everything in your library. No need to reach out. Any new games added to the bundle will automatically show up here. Thanks!
While not a promise for an add all button, it does seem to imply that such a button is being considered. Absent any other news to the contrary, people will be left wondering what's up with that.
Thanks for the clarification. I’m going to remove that notice from that part of the site now since there is no longer an influx of people going there. We’re more likely to make it a bit easier to navigate through the games, but we have no plans to add an add all button for now. The size of the bundle increased substantially since the that notice was originally added.
There are both technical and customer support related issues that make something like this problematic. Our bundle system was not designed for thousands of games. In order to make this bundle available to everyone as soon as possible, we put up a compromise for the solution. In the future, if we do other huge bundles, we’ll likely invest more time in improving the experience. Since the bundle is now over it’s a lower priority making these types of changes right now. I know many members of the community have put together third-party solutions for exploring the games, so you may want to seek out some of those if you haven’t already.
Thanks
I'm glad I found this thread, as I was very confused when I saw mention of the "add all" button quietly removed from my bundle page after I was lead to believe that it was still in the works. For the benefit of others in my situation, would it be possible to add links to these third-party solutions to the bundle page in place of the removed message, along with a short explanation similar to what you've written here?
Thanks!
Hi, the "Note" from the bundle page has not yet been removed, even a month later. I would really appreciate it being removed. I've had to dig up months old itch.io posts to try and find some help about this promise. Please fix the issue as it is misleading and exasperating.
The note about how there will be a button in the future that will allow you to claim all the games in one go, sorry. I should've been more specific. That is still there on my bundle page.
“Is there a reason they shouldn’t all be part of a user’s Library?”
For me there is: Clutter! I have no interest in most of the things in this bundle - which shouldn’t come as a big surprise for a bundle of this extremely generous magnitude. I currently have no use for the asset packs, the Unity games, the vast majority of the TTRPGs, things that have only a single screenshot… And I’m already at the point where I’m collecting links to ask itch.io’s support team to remove those entries from my library again. Right now some users are complaining that they don’t have everything they legally own marked as “theirs” - and I get that, I really do: Before I think “Should I buy this game?” my first thought is “Do I already own that game?” and than I cave to copy the name and paste it into the bundle’s search box. But: It would be far more inconvenient for me to navigate almost two thousand things - in a similar fashion I would have to navigate the bundle, I’d like to point out.
And that’s the reason that I don’t chime in and repeatedly ask for a feature that the admin(s?) already know the demand about. Don’t get me wrong: Always fight for the things you believe in! I’m just offering a different point of view. I’m not against there being an option to claim all those game - but I can foresee the flood of requests for an “undo”-button as well…
I happen to have the exact wording of that note as of 2020-06-16:
Note: Projects in this bundle are hidden in your library by default untill you first access them in order to avoid flooding your library. You can return to this page at any time to access any projects you wish to show in your library.
Note: We will be updating this page soon, we know it’s difficult to navigate so many games. We know you want a button to add show everything in your library. No need to reach out. Any new games added to the bundle will automatically show up here. Thanks!
While they did not fulfill on updating the page “soon” I would have been surprised if a button that add everything from the bundle to a user’s library - based on the context of the first note and that it would ruin the usefulness of the personalized recommendations for those who would have clicked said button.
Whatever might or might not be implemented in the future would probably be more along the lines of filtering and sorting.
