Update #5: The Final Countdown

Posted on March 12

It's less than 24 hours until the end of our Kickstarter campaign, and we're rapidly approaching $3,000,000.  This is cause for celebration!  Please join us tomorrow as we count down the final minutes until we embark on this crazy adventure.  It all begins at 3:00 pm PDT right here:

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/double-fine-adventure

To those of you who have backed the project, thank you so much!  We'll see you soon on the backer forums! 

To those of you who haven't yet backed the project, there's still time!  Many of these rewards will only be made available to backers, so act now if you don't want to miss out.  We've been hearing from a lot of folks that would like to back the project, but are unable to do so because they are outside of the US and do not have a credit card.  Well, here's Tim Schafer to the rescue with information on how to obtain a pre-paid credit card to back the project:

An important detail-in order for your payment to go through with a pre-paid credit card, you must add $1 more to the card than you are pledging.  More details can be found here:  http://www.tinyurl.com/NoCreditAdventure

And if we could make one last request, please do not refresh the Kickstarter page in the final minutes, as we don't want to break Kickstarter again during this high traffic time.  Plus, the party is going to be over on Ustream!  

SEE YOU TOMORROW!!!!!!

Double Fine and 2 Player Productions

Double Fine Productions is an award-winning, independent game development studio founded in 2000 by games industry veteran Tim Schafer. Located in San Francisco’s South of Market district, Double Fine is committed to making high-quality games with an emphasis on originality, story, characters, and fun.

2 Player Productions has spent years producing documentary coverage of games culture and the industry itself, originally having worked on behind the scenes documentaries for feature films, most notably the Oscar nominated “Precious”. They have produced behind the scenes features for the Sony properties “Infamous”, “Infamous 2”, and “Uncharted 3”, as well as 27 episodes in the first season of the “Penny-Arcade” documentary web series. In 2010 they released to DVD their first feature film, “Reformat the Planet” a documentary about chip music in New York city, and they are currently finishing production on a feature film concerning the runaway success of the indie game sensation “Minecraft”.
