Campaign link www.fig.co/campaigns/psychonauts-2Double Fine needs $3.3 million in 34 days. The lowest tier to get Psychonauts 2 is $39 and it comes bundled with Pyschonauts, but there's an early bird tier of $33. I'm kinda confused at how there's no tier for just Psychonauts 2 by itself. Chances are, everyone who's throwing money at the project has already played the first game. |

I'm one of the few exceptions. As I was with Shenmue.

I'm confused by how the only physical version of the game is (for the moment at least) only available for PC/Mac and that it's only available through the $100 or higher tiers.

I'd say the attached first game is just good business, it's their way of showing the history of the project rather than showing a blind investment.

This is the first big name to hit Fig, isn't it? I haven't followed that funding platform much.

This is the first big name to hit Fig, isn't it? I haven't followed that funding platform much. I'd say so. There there we a couple of medium-sized projects with Outer Wilds (which got funded) and Anchors in the Drift (which did not). As a crowdfunding platform Fig is aimed towards games, focuses on one project at a time, more tightly curated than Kickstarter and Indiegogo, and accredited investors can actually invest money into projects instead of just backing them normally. Tim Schafer also happens to be one of the advisors.ALSO: Psychonauts 2 reached $1.3 million in less than a day. As of now, $580,000 is from investors and $730,000 is from backers. |

Oh wow, one project at a time? That's very interesting...
I backed it... will be neat to see how this one does.

Good news, Psychonauts 2 got funded today! There's five days left in the campaign about a 50/50 split between money from backers and investors.

Congrats to them. I'll wait for a console port that doesn't get ridiculous after currency conversion.

They ended up at $3.8M... not too shabby.

Honestly, I could not, with any good sense of mind, help fund this. I'm glad it's getting made, though.

I didn't back it because I felt $40 for Psychonauts 2 was a bit steep. Yes, I am a hypocrite/liar/mankind's greatest monster for posting a thread about a crowdfunding campaign without actually backing it, but I know I'll buy it eventually through either a Steam sale or Humble Bundle.

Giving Schafer money is always a bad idea.
