Maybe this'll get devs on board a little more in future.
Tim should do a Kickstarter for Psychonauts 2 as well (in a few months). I'd fund the shit out of that.

I gander he'd probably be wise enough to wait until this game is released before banking on people's trust again. On that note, I hope this game turns out to be good because I just see it as a stepping stone towards Psychonauts 2.

Fixed that for you :eng101: they have to actually make this game first.
When someone pledges 150000$ for this, are they actually buying a poster, a game, a documentary, etc. for 150000$ or is this an actual investment or loan or something?

There's more shit on their website if you pledge more than the kickstart stuff but for the most part it's good bye money.

So you'd actually pay THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLAR to get a picture of one of the devs? :confused:
Aren't investments supposed to be profitable?

No but dinner or bowling with Tim Schafer sounds awesome

You are investing to see the game be made and be awesome. Not to make a profit. Also, that feel when you will never have a photograph of Ron Gilbert smiling. :(
$872,096
pledged of $400,000 goal
that makes me so happy (i know it's not for psychonauts 2 but still)

Someone really gave them over 10,000 dollars? That's.. A lot.
But goddamn, I wish I had an extra grand lying around. Would get a mini portrait of myself

It was Notch
[QUOTE=Lizard Of Guilt;34624218]It was Notch[/QUOTE]
It's always Notch
Notch paid the $10,000 but chose the $5000 prize instead.
Oh fuck off noscript, I didn't even notice that the picture at the top was a video. That was great.

I thought the fundraising thing was for a new point and click adventure game, not Psychonauts 2...
