The Double Fine Kickstarter

[OrneryBadger]

Some of you know who Tim Schaeffer and Double Fine are. Tim Schaeffer is the game designer who has brought us games such as full throttle and day of the tentical, and his work with double fine includes Pyschonauts and Brutal Legend.
 
Some of you didn't know, and now you do!
 
After indie game multimillionaire Notch announced he'd totes love to fund a Pyschonauts 2 for DF, All went quiet over at DF for a while, then they announced they were going to conduct an experiment: An entirely fan funded Point and Click adventure game, with a documentary that will show the process and work that goes into making videogames tied to it. Their goal? $400,000 in a month.
 
That was less than 24 hours ago. They're now sitting at just under 1,000,000 dollars, with the largest Kick Starter rate gain in history.

I don't really have a point, just...thought that was awesome.

Lol you named Full Throttle as the first example.



Ah. I am quite pumped about the game, even though it's years away.

I wonder if TS would pull the same stunt as the guys in The Producers did.




Oh, and obviously they've cleared a million by now.
