Games that maybe should be in the justice bundle

I'm trying to help. I thought I'd put together a list of accounts I noticed asking to be in the bundle with games I thought looked interesting, but that look to have been missed.

Do you want creators to ask individually where they think they've been overlooked? Or is it worth people in the community to compile a list of missed games?  Or will you be looking into this yourself?

Thanks.

Look to be on time:

(there's another Hunter's Moon in the bundle, so maybe there was an issue there)

Before free were excluded?

Too late (missed the deadline), but famous:

Gang Beasts

I've listed the profiles so you can see both the requests and the games they own.

As far as I know they used a script to find the games and cross reference it to check if the creator matches with the game or not. If it didn't Leafo would appear and tell them there was a mismatch. Other than that, it's just a matter of time for them to sift thru the submitted games. 

RIP Gang Beasts for missing the deadline tho.

Looking at what was recently added it seems the games dated back to 6/10 @ 15:00 about while the games that still need to be added were from 6/11 with the deadline being at 12:00 PT, yeah? Which would be Jun 12 @ 19:00 GMT.

The following are just guesses as to why it might have no been added.

I think it's important that all games that should be included are, as games see a significant boost to interest from simply being in the bundle, e.g. this person seeing 3000 downloads of their game suddenly: https://twitter.com/king_spooner/status/1271617730467237888

I don't think the 'supporters collection' will see the same interest in their games (as it will be a less viewed list). 600,000 people owning your game with the possibility of taking enough interest to download is quite something for many devs.

True but the ultimate goal is to raise funds and that comes first before having exposure. Kind of why free games are no longer part of the bundle and will be moved to a collection instead.

Three of the these games are now in the bundle: awaceb's Fossil Echo, crank_gaming's C.M.Y.K. and rebournestudios' Unfortunately Fortunate Organisms.
