Fund $15 for their next game, get it on Steam.

One for Double Fine or Tim Schafer fans, he hasn't ever made anything less than an ok game and most of them are gold.

Oh yeah let me tell you, it is an adventure game, just like his previous works you may remember such as Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, Grim Fandango.

For fans of adventure games, this is a chance to prove that there is still a large demand out there for a unique medium that inspired so many of us.

In 8 hours we've raised $450k for Double Fine. Great job, thankfully people still know there is an audience for adventure videogames.

Clix y u no look at this thread

The title sounded pretty lame in all honesty.

Well, this is bananas. According to Double Fine's Tim Schafer, the cost of getting a patch up on a modern console (presumably he means the Xbox 360 and/or PS3) is $40,000.

That's not to upload downloadable content. That's just for a patch.

"Those systems as great as they are, they're still closed", Schafer told Hookshot. "You have to jump through a lot of hoops, even for important stuff like patching and supporting your game. Those are things we really want to do, but we can't do it on these systems. I mean, it costs $40,000 to put up a patch – we can't afford that! Open systems like Steam, that allow us to set our own prices, that's where it's at, and doing it completely alone like Minecraft. That's where people are going."
