Kickstartin' Tim Schafer~

FIRST!

Already 90k, it's going incredibly fast. I'll prolly just be doing 15$, but this is all so exciting. A new Schafer adventure game and possibly a sequel to Psychonauts in a couple of years. Holy shit.

I read an article in December Game Informer about this game. Looks really good, and I'm really interested in seeing what comes of it. I quite enjoy the point-and-click genre.

Very excited. Double Fine makes some pretty damn fine games.

i was like this

Point and Click? :/

Actually looks pretty neat, thanks for the share.

Wow thank you so much this is awesome!

In!

First time I've backed a kickstarter. It's going to be fully funded in another hour or so at this rate!

Why do we need publisher's again...?

Tim FTW

$15 is more money than I've put into a single game for a couple of years now (excluding piecemeal for "F2P" MMO's, where I got up to $25 for a single game). I vowed to reduce my video game spending because I don't play most of those I buy, so I'm taking my time making this $15 commitment. Still there's a good chance I will give in.

Why can you only pay with Credit Cards?
This sucks, wanted to give 30$ but now I can't

Schafer's company have quite a brilliant imagination, they just can't seem to make it into mainstream. Though trouble might be with limiting ports (PS3 exclusives and such) and mostly for youger audience.
But I hope this works out.

Shame about the payment limits. Would have supported this. Kickstart could really use going more global and getting multiple payment methods. Anyway, nice to see that the goal is already met. Next stop, ONE MILLION DOLLARS.

Good news! Only took them 8 hours...

Forgot to say thanks for the heads up.

BTW, I wonder when this will get slashdotted.

133% ($534,283/$400,000) funded in less than 12 hours... and with 33 days left. HOLY SH*T.

In other news, here's an interesting Rock, Paper, Shotgun article & I've just found my dream job @ Double Fine studios. Guess which one.

I payed 15$ i hope they do the same thing with Psychonauts 2 i will pay much more!!

Also they charge you when the countdown ends right?

Backed because of Ron Gilbert! And of course Tim. Not that they need my money now anyway...

$1M mark achieved, crisis averted!

Can't wait for that documentary, so curious to see what's going on at Double Fine. I'm not a personal fan of point-and-click adventure, so the game isn't so interesting to me. Although I almost payed just because it's Shafer. Anyway, I will definetely back Psychonauts 2, should he use a fundraiser for that.

"...and, most importantly...
Q: How will I get the game?
A: Steam codes will be delivered to all backers.
Q: How do I get access to the beta?
A: On Steam. Isn’t Steam the best?!"

I've got to ask... how is that even remotely the most important thing? Would you seriously not want this game if it wasn't on Steam?

THEY hit a million
