Memorial Day is just around the corner for those of us in the States, and if for you that means sitting in traffic for several hours as you and your friends attempt to make your way to the beach, you’d better plan ahead to help you pass the time. Luckily for you, a bunch of smartphone game developers are joining together for a promotional event, offering some big savings on a good number of titles.

Calling their effort Because We May, the developers involved are celebrating app stores that give them the freedom and flexibility to set and change their own prices. Taking full advantage of that ability, they’re discounting selected apps $1, $2 – even as much as $5 off the regular price. Look carefully, and you’ll even spot one or two going for free.

Popular titles among the games featured in this promotion include World of Goo, Avadon, Shadowgun, and dozens more. Besides the lengthy selection of iOS and Android titles, there are also deals for computer games, with both Mac and PC titles available, and many with even steeper discounts than the smartphone apps get.

These Because We May savings will only last from today through June 1, so be sure to check the list of available titles before then to ensure you don’t miss out on anything.
