February 8th 2012 Publishers tell us that adventure games are dead. Our fans tell us they aren’t. Who is right? Well, I think it’s about time we found out! Into the THUNDERDOME! And by THUNDERDOME, I mean KICKSTARTER! Kickstarter allows regular people to pool their money to make awesome things happen. Please check out our video, and make a pledge. But before you do, please check out our PREMIUM PLEDGES listed below! ![An image from the Double Fine archive.](//assets.doublefine.com/archive/images/LOGO3_thumb.jpg) You see, some pledges are so premium, they break the Kickstarter system. They’re just that good. So we have to post them here. These are the Premium Rewards. The Glengary Rewards. These Rewards are for Closers. If you want to make a premium pledge, just mail kickstarter at doublefine.com. I put the at in there to totally fool the spam bots. I hope it didn’t fool you. Anyway: Pledge $15,000 or more: Dinner with Tim Schafer and key members of the dev team. Pledge $20,000 or more: Dinner and BOWLING with Tim Schafer and key members of the dev team. Pledge $30,000 or more: Picture of Ron Gilbert smiling. Pledge $35,000 or more: Undoctored picture of Ron Gilbert smiling. Pledge $50,000 or more: Become an actual character in the game. Pledge $150,000 or more: Tim Schafer (that’s me) will give up ONE of his last four remaining Triangle-Boxed Day of the Tentacles, in original shrink-wrap.” (Limit of 1) (Holy crap, what am I thinking? I only have four of those!) That’s all there is to it! Think it will work? I hope so, because I would rather work directly for the fans than for anyone else. If the Double Fine Kickstarter Adventure is a success, it could open the doors for all sorts of new funding possibilities, and all kinds of new games that could never happen in the old system. So basically I’m just talking about changing the entire world forever for the better. And getting a game out of it. --- ## Tags [tim schafer](https://www.doublefine.com/search/tag/tim-schafer)[double fine adventure](https://www.doublefine.com/search/tag/double-fine-adventure)[2 player productions](https://www.doublefine.com/search/tag/2-player-productions) --- ## Related news [Double Fine Adventure: Episodes 14 & 15 April 14th 2015 ](https://www.doublefine.com/news/double-fine-adventure-episodes-14-15) [Double Fine Adventure: Episode 12 “A whole different game experience” April 2nd 2015 ](https://www.doublefine.com/news/double-fine-adventure-episode-12-a-whole-different-game-experience) [The Double Fine Adventure Documentary Goes Public!
