Indie Game Bundle Aiding Laid-Off Developers Is Nearing $200,000 Raised

After soaring past an initial goal of $100,000, a Game Industry Hardship Fund bundle on Itch.io is now nearing $200,000 raised with seven days remaining. The bundle has so far raised more than $163,000, and features 127 games for the minimum price of $10, with the proceeds going towards helping laid-off developers pay for everyday expenses. There are some bigger-name games included as well, including indie titles like Skatebird, A Short Hike, and Arranger. More than 11,000 people have contributed so far, and while $10 is the minimum for the bundle, people are encouraged to donate more.
