That... wow.

Alright. Alright! An adventure game. By Tim Schafer, and Ron Gilbert, and a super-talented team. They seek 400000$ in kickstarter funding, and they already got enough. Took about 8 hours. Wow.
And they're making a documentation about the process.

So, it appears the gods have smiled upon us today.



This may be a topic better suited for "Game Business", but in honesty, the only correct forum for this would be "Happy news of incredible greatness and joy", and we don't have this forum here (I double-checked).


Perhaps this post will get me points for originality at least.

Check out Dungeon Deities! It's amazing and will make you happy, successful and almost certainly more attractive! It might be true!

Let's just hope it won't share the same fate as Kings & Castles by Chris Taylor did. There also was this extensive video blog with some quite funny episodes and the possibility to post your ideas (which were treated quite seriously) which stopped when they dropped the project in favor of that Age of Empires Online game (it seems the videos made somebody interested in their team)... frown

They're past one million now.

Past one million!
What a crazy thing.

A classic 2D adventure in HD by Ron Gilbert and Tim Schafer with a 1.3 Million Plus Budget. That`s a crazy, but obviously true dream. I`m so looking forward to this laugh

I think it's especially interesting as Kickstart's funding only works via credit cards which in europe people tend not to have. That's also why I can't fund anything although I'd be sort of tempted by the 100$ poster funding option... wink

This update (5) is relevant: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=gbXygxSObUQ

Love how they picked Dutch and German xD. I'm lolling hard.

3.3 million dollar, 800% more than the goal. Awesome.

Ron Gilbert and Tim Schafer...

sounds like a winner...
Love these old Monkey Island 1 memories


If they could get Peter Molineux, Brian Fargo and Paul Woakes too, it would be my dream project
