If you pledged financial support during Double Fine’s now-legendarily successful Kickstarter campaign, you probably already saw this video. But if you didn’t, now you get to.
So it seems as though Tim Schafer’s studio Double Fine, of mega Kickstarter fund raising fame, has just uploaded a video on Vimeo. And, get this, it looks like an adventure game. This couldn’t be that Double Fine Adventure game everyone threw money at… could it?
When German adventure game nut Marius Fietzek applied for an internship at Double Fine studios by, well, making an adventure game, it seemed a cute touch, though a little short on hard selection criteria.
The Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) has today announced their second special guest for their Game Masters exhibition, and that special guest in Tim Schafer.
Tim Schafer’s the three-million-dollar man, thanks to a record-breaking Kickstarter his Double Fine development studio launched to fund a new adventure game. While work should be starting soon on that crowd-funded creation, the respected designer showed off a project that probably won’t ever happen at a lecture last night at New York University’s Game centre.
If you even thought about giving money to Double Fine’s Kickstarter project for a new adventure game, you’d have seen that the minimum contribution was $US15. That got you a copy of the game when released, so it wasn’t a bad deal.
Double Fine’s record-breaking adventure game kickstarter has officially ended, closing out with $US3.3 million raised, as well as an extra $US110,000 from off-the-record premium backers. Great show, guys.
The crowd-funding for the upcoming adventure game project from Tim Schafer’s Double Fine Studios already broke all kinds of Kickstarter records weeks ago, when it reached its funding goal of $US400,000 in eight hours.
