Adventure Forums - View Single Post - Double Fine looking for help funding new adventure game

I would have liked some details on what they had in mind other than just a 'point and click adventure'. There are dozens of those produced every year - what will make Double Fine's game special? Schafer and Gilbert are talented, we know that, but it seems presumptuous that their game will automatically transcend the other output from other companies making adventures. All developers are capable of producing stinkers.

I also can't say I'm interested in the film documentary and disliked the way it was portrayed as a kind of gift for us audiences, rather than more publicity for them at our expense.
