    If you guys go to the humble bundle homepage and click on the Login/Signup button on the top right-hand corner you'll see an option to create an account. Do so using the e-mail you used to purchase prior bundles and it should recognize that you have. You'll find that all your older bundles have been conveniently added to the page.

    Edit: Should add that you'll find all your older bundles that are linked to that email address. If you've used a different e-mail address throughout the humble bundle lifetime you'll probably need to create multiple accounts.

    @Ducksworth: Thanks, it worked. Turns out I bought bundle 1, 5 and 6. So no Cortex Command for me but still very helpful because I lost all those emails with the links.

    @crazyleaves: Unfortunately the game probably hasn't changed at all since you played it. The developer literally slapped 1.0 on the last crappy alpha build and is calling it done after 11 years.

    @randombattle: That's being pretty unfair. Data Realms has been making continuous updates to the game's engine for years now, they just don't have the same amount of assets available to them as, say, Minecraft or Terraria.

    Also I'm fairly certain they never said that the game was complete, it's just reached a stable enough build to be released publicly

    Last time I played it was unplayable. But this was whily ago, one of the alpha versions. Redeemed the game on Steam now. Will need to try it one day.

    For those of whom that bought Cortex Command long before the first Humble Indie Bundle was created, then you can find your new Steam Key here http://licensing.datarealms.com/licensing/

    Enter your login and it will show you your Steam key....and man does this look like I am stealing your details..... here is the offical link to the forum post.

    I am one of the cool kids! I have been playing CC since......FUCK!! Since Build 14 back in 2007.....wow.....

    OH and if you are like me and bought it that long ago, there was a point they had to switch the accounts and license. You had to convert at the time. That was years ago....I dont know how to fix that now.

    Noticed this was showing up on Steam, so I went to check my HB3 email link, and sure enough, got a Steam key.

    I love that stuff like this happens with the Humble Bundles, I've bought all of them and have never regretted it.

    Does anyone else find the game really over-complicated?

    It's stable but in no way is it finished. If you have it from the HB, then redeem the code, but by no means should you pay $20 for it.
