Really looking forward to this. Don't want to wait a minute longer than I have to before I start playing.
I have a similar problem. Only I used the Purchase as a Gift option to send the link to an alternate e-mail address. I have not yet received any e-mail after redeeming the unique gift url though.

Will I only receive this e-mail once the game is released, or did something go wrong here?

Edit: I finally got the e-mail. It certainly took its sweet time. :D
(Although I had to go to the "Lost Keys" option to have the e-mail sent to me. I never got it otherwise.)

I am having a problem with getting the pre-order goodies. I have the link I just got from humblebundle.com with the 'Thank you for purchasing .... enjoy preorder bonus package ..." Which when I click on the link it doesn't do anything. I have let it sit for 10 mins or so and it comes up with 'oops page not found' I have tried setting my browers security and privacy settings lower, windows explorer 9 btw, and it doesn't seem to help. Now this is a new computer, I just got it last week a friend got it for me, it is a Alienware, so I don't know what I might be doing wrong to get the goodies. Yes I did just find the game yesterday :p otherwise I would have ordered it sooner. I LOVED playing Dungeon Master and did a little dance in my chair when I saw this game lol. If anyone could please tell me what I might be doing wrong or how to fix this I would greatly appreciate it. Yes I am that much of a geek girl to really want the extra's. :p Thanks!

For those having problems with the Pre-order Bonus goodies link...

I too had the same problem, its IE9 related.

Give Firefox a go, thats how I got it.

Thank you! That worked for me, getting Firefox and using it instead of IE9.
Thanks! I can't wait to play the game. :)

Ah, good job finding out.

I have to say, using IE for anything is generally a bad idea, it's just not well supported... get either Chrome or Firefox instead.

The standalone client will be visible tomorrow on your humble page. It's just not activated yet.

Greetings all,
I'm new to the community here - is the game going to be released for download directly from the grimrock.net at specific hour? Like i.e. after midnight, or later? I'm very excited about the game!

Regards from Poland!

When the game's released, the direct download will be available from the humble bundle page you got the steam key from.
