[Update]
And they’ve done it! Within hours of setting up a Kickstarter project Double Fine has reached its target of $400 000 to help fund Double Fine Adventure - and cash is still pouring in!
Check out Double Fine Adventure at the Kickstarter project page.
[End of update]
Tim Schafer and Double Fine Productions have taken a leap of faith and asked the gaming community (and the world at large) to fund a new development project, and by the looks of things, the studio’s faith is very well placed!
Double Fine’s foray into Kinect motion-controlled gaming continues on from its work on Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster with the studio’s next game, Happy Action Theater, which at first glance is a collection of mini-games perfectly suited for some party time fun…
… and this initial assessment would be mostly correct, as a released debut gameplay video reveals.
We had a collection of leftover videogame news bits that we didn’t know what to do with, so instead of throwing them away and casting them into the great unknown of the internet, we carved out a home and carefully placed them here.
What’s the latest word on games like Uncharted 3, Warhammer 40K: Space Marine and Duke Nukem Forever? What’s up with the latest 3DS colour and Double Fine’s ‘Pack of Brütality?’
Let’s find out:
Holy cow! Did you know about this? Why didn’t anyone say anything?! The Excellent Game Psychonauts (just ‘Psychonauts’ to its friends) is now available on the Mac!
Not only that, but Double Fine’s masterful action platform game has received an update for the Steam version of the game, while a new “companion iOS app” is now available via the App Store. What’s included in the Steam update? A “slightly modified” version of the infamous Meat Circus level, amongst others.
This is a great day, everybody.
If you haven’t yet tried Double Fine’s downloadable title Stacking, then now’s the perfect time to find out a little more about it.
Why you ask?
Double Fine Productions’ latest downloadable game (following the excellent Costume Quest and Stacking) has arrived on Xbox LIVE Arcade to let you jump into some intense mobile trench and tower defence warfare!
Trenched is here, and you’d best get ready with some manly screenshots, tough tutorial videos, muscle-bound price information and an extra strong official description!
The next digital, downloadable videogame delight from Double Fine has received an official release date, and we’ll all be able to dive headlong into the studio’s mechanised, tower defence world when Trenched hits Xbox LIVE Marketplace on June 22nd.
How do we know when Trenched is due for release?
Thanks to a brand new trailer for the game in the form of its excellent introduction video, which keenly explains how one man decided to help the world with mysteriously gained knowledge, while another man sought to bring the world to you… and to its knees:
Double Fine’s next creative downloadable game endeavour, Trenched, was announced earlier this year and is hopefully due to be released sometime in the very near future to give us all of the strategic tower defence jollies we can hope for, with the game’s own unique twist to the formula.
Did you enjoy Stacking, the latest downloadable game from the excellent Double Fine Studios?
With such a unique premise and its open-world approach to puzzle solving, Stacking is a gem of a game that you should definitely try out if you’re looking for oodles of style, charm, humour and clever personality and environment puzzles to solve!
But lo, what’s this? Downloadable content for Stacking? Yes, that’s very correct! The first new adventure for Stacking has been released on Xbox LIVE Marketplace for 400 MS Points, titled (what else) ‘The Lost Hobo King.’
Here’s the skinny on the DLC’s story with some great screenshots included (Warning: Craziness Ensues):
Another month, another Double Fine Productions game announcement!
Not that I’m complaining – far from it! – but following hot on the heels of an announcement for the studio’s Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster comes the reveal of another title – Trenched.
Trenched is an Xbox LIVE Arcade-exclusive title published by Microsoft Game Studios, and looks to be a strategic mech-based game where you’re able to increase your area of combat effectiveness through a combination of “a combination of mobile firepower and stationary defences.”
You can check out the rest of the first screenshots for Trenched below, as well as the debut trailer (described by Schafer as “extremely, extremely manly”)”
It was a bit of a surprise when Warner Bros. Interactive announced early last week that Double Fine Productions (Brutal Legend, Costume Quest) is currently working on an Xbox 360 Kinect-enabled Sesame Street game, but that’s exactly what the studio is doing with Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster.
Although only a few details and screenshots were released, a debut trailer has recently hit the ‘net showcasing the world and activities of Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster.
Is it weird for me to be quietly excited about this game? Watch the debut trailer and decide:
Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment has announced today that The Excellent Game Development Studio, Double Fine Productions, is currently working on an Xbox 360 Kinect-exclusive Sesame Street-themed game.
Entitled Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster, the game will see “young players” join characters from the Sesame Street property, such as Cookie Monster, Elmo and more, to “explore a living storybook.” From a press release:
Ohmygoodness you guys! Do you know what just happened?
Stacking! Stacking just happened! And it just happened on Xbox LIVE Marketplace!
Available now on Xbox LIVE Marketplace is Double Fine’s latest downloadable title, Stacking, an awesome-looking open-world puzzle game from the mind of the studio’s art director, Lee Petty.
Want to find out more? Of course you do! It’s Stacking, and it just happened!
We of course all know that Double Fine’s open-world puzzle adventure game, Stacking, is scheduled for release today on the North America PlayStation Network, and then tomorrow on Xbox LIVE Marketplace and the European PSN, and what better way to celebrate the impending release of the studio’s next game than with an awesome stop-motion short film?
There is no better way, believe you me - I even Googled it!
So sit back, relax, and enjoy the debut filmatic adventures of Charlie Blackmore as he and some pals try to discover of Stacking is all about:
According to a report on Gamespot, we don’t have too much longer to wait for Double Fine’s next downloadable title, Stacking, as the Russian nesting doll-featuring game has received early February release dates for both Xbox LIVE Arcade and the PlayStation Network!
