Double Fine's Kickstarter project sounds cool, but here are some reasons why it probably won't really change the way developers get money.
The Humble Day of the Devs Bundle 2022 just launched. It includes sixteen items including Psychonauts, Brutal Legend, Broken Age, and more.
Find out why ScreenCritics Joe is full of praise for 'Double Fine Adventure' - and why more developers should allow gamers look behind the curtain.
I (Robin Ek, The Gaming Ground) had a lot of mixed emotions when I found out that Tim Schafer and Double Fine had launched a crowdfunding campaign for "Psychonauts 2" yesterday. And this is the reason why (pros Vs cons, past scandals and expectations).
Don't worry, he will ask for more money soon, lol.
I'm a huge fan of the original Psychonauts, but i will not be able to donate for the crowfunding campaign because so many great games are coming next year.
But let's see how much the Feminist Frequency will donate for his campaign now...
3.3 million dollars? Why do I have a feeling that Tim will be asking people for more money once the campaign is over?...
Hopefully it does. I would donate to the kickstart of Powerstone, Killer Instinct, or a FF7 remake.
I have no problem with helping to fund the games that would like to play
We can only hope so - it'd be nice to see this sort of disruption happen in the PC/console space for a change, instead of just in mobile.
So as long as if we donate enough we don't have to pay for the game again.
It's not going to change anything
