Newsbrief:
Minecraft creator Mojang and the Humble Indie Bundle have raised nearly half a million dollars for charity as part of
their 60-hour game jam over the weekend.
The "Humble Bundle Mojam" ran from February 17-19 and raised $458,207.95 in total, with developers from Mojang,
Cobalt developer Oxeye Game Studio and
Overgrowth Wolfire Games making games for anyone who donated money through the HIB website.
The money went towards four charities -- Child's Play, Electronic Frontier Foundation, charity: water and the American Red Cross.
Mojang developed a game called
Catacomb Snatch, while Wolfire released
The Broadside Express to donors. Oxeye's
