and.... the humble bundle is dead. good while it lasted.
clicked the very first icon there, and the movie ONLY had cinematics. not a single slipt second of gameplay.
Indie games came a long way, but they are now just the same as big studios. milking any branding they can. humble bundle unfortunately being one of them :(
I assume you're talking about the Anomaly icon, which is the only one without gameplay (and is also the third icon, but maybe that changed). I'm not sure why you'd base your opinion of a game, let alone the continued success of the bundle and the indie game industry itself on the content of a single video link. The Humble Bundle continues to provide what it always has, and the game it promotes continue to be created by small independent studios, distributed DRM free on a large number of platforms. The choice of using a cinematic rather than gameplay video hardly impacts these other factors.
If you're concerned about the game itself, it's been out for a while on a number of platforms and is well-reviewed, so finding gameplay videos should not be difficult.
That video is certainly a poor representation of Anomaly's gameplay since it is just a cutscene. I will make a note to find a better one. Thanks for the feedback!
