Once every year or so, Double Fine drops everything and spends two weeks feverishly pitching and developing brand-new prototypes, in a process we call AMNESIA FORTNIGHT!

Historically this was a top-secret process, but in [2012](https://www.doublefine.com/games/amnesia-fortnight/2012) we blew the whole affair wide open. Our community voted on the ideas they wanted us to make, watched us develop them in real-time, and played them all when we were done.

Since then every we've let everyone see behind the curtains for every Amnesia Fortnight, be it livestream, daily documentary, or even [movie format](https://www.doublefine.com/dftv/the-amnesia-fortnight-movie). All of which are available here on this very website!

Often we have made all the prototypes available for people to check out, [via Humble](https://www.humblebundle.com/store/search?sort=bestselling&search=amnesia%20fortnight). Some of the prototypes we make or pitch become full games, such as [Costume Quest](https://www.doublefine.com/games/costume-quest), [Spacebase DF-9](https://www.doublefine.com/games/spacebase-df-9), and [Headlander](https://www.doublefine.com/games/headlander). Others have become the inspiration for parts of games, such as Compton's Cookout in [Psychonauts 2](https://www.doublefine.com/games/psychonauts-2), which was based on [The Gods Must Be Hungry](https://www.doublefine.com/dftv/the-gods-must-be-hungry).

Forget everything else for a moment and take a journey inside our world of creative nonsense — join us for Amnesia Fortnight!
