Double Fine

TV is now on board with the internet.

What about video games?
I've seen Rockstar games trying to promote their online club which gives you an in-game bonus but the people of the internet and video games have never been connected until now.

The game studio Double Fine have gone on Kickstarter.com and asked fans for $300,000 to make the game and $100,000 to document making the game.

This was a bold move and the best part is... in under 24 hours the game studio made over $1 million.
Breaking the record for most money made in a 24 hour period.

The game they plan to make is an old-school adventure game which was turned down often by game developers/publishers, so Double Fine studios turned to the fans.

Since they've way over shot they're target, they plan to publish their game on more consoles, have a totally original soundtrack and much much more.

If this project is successful, fan interaction with video games will never be the same.

The best part of this (for me) is that this information was released today. (10/2/2012)

So this blog is really up-to-date.

Future looks less grim.
