Double Fine Campaign Update

[Feb 10, 2012, 10:58 am ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

The Double Fine Adventure Kickstarter Page has an update on the startlingly immediate success of this effort at crowdsourcing the funding for Double Fine's next adventure game, which may or may not be Psychonauts 2. The project has now raise over triple its $400K goal, and here's word:

UPDATE: We did it! 100% funded in just over eight hours. You people are amazing! But it's not over yet. The number keeps going up and now the question is just how much news do we want to make with this? We're getting a lot of attention already and it seems like this little project could have an impact beyond itself.

All money raised will go to make the game and documentary better. Additional money means it can appear on more platforms, be translated into more languages, have more music and voice, and an original soundtrack for the documentary, and more!

Your backing and comments have been truly inspiring to me and the team, so on behalf of Double Fine and 2 Player Productions I want to say THANK YOU!!!

I can't wait to see where this thing can go!

Full Throttle was awesome. I was really disappointed when they cancelled Full Throttle 2 Creston It looked like crap, and didn't have Tim Schafer. It looked like they were going to make a game around the part where you beat up dudes on the highway. I enjoyed Full Throttle, but it was wrapped up very well. Same with Grim Fandango. It seems like such a bad idea to crack them back open and cram in sequels.
