Double Fine Kickstarter Reaches Two Million Dollars

The feel good story of the year just keeps getting better.

The Double Fine Adventure fundraising effort on Kickstarter has just hit $2 million in pledges, less than two weeks in. After reaching its $400,000 goal in just eight hours, the fundraiser has continued to raise more than five times the original amount requested.

Tim Schafer and the rest of Double Fine have said that all that extra cash will go towards voice acting, soundtrack and translation. Double Fine Adventure will be released on PC, Android, iOS, Mac and Linux, appearing fully localised in English, French, German, Spanish and Italian.

Kid Gloves: When Hand Holding Goes Too Far

As I was moving into the end game of Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, I was tasked with finding three power couplings to unlock a door. It was a simple enough job, but in a game that had been almost entirely a linear affair, I was glad to have the rails taken off if even for a small section. It turned out that this wasn’t the case; any time I got remotely close to one of the power couplings Doktor would chime in on my codec to inform me that I was near my objective. Frowning, I destroyed the coupling and repeated the task with Doktor telling me exactly where to go and what to do. It made me realize just how much game design has changed in recent years, and what needs to be done to combat the need for constant hand holding that game designers have developed.
