Double Fine
Even if you’ve never been a fan of indie games there is a very good chance that you have, at some point in your gaming wanderings, heard about Double Fine. It is the video game studio founded by the legendary Tim Schafer who you may know from such classics as Psychonauts, and Grim Fandango. Speaking of Grim Fandango, that game is one of the very reasons Double fine is one of the indie studios to watch this year.
Last summer Tim Schafer himself took to the stage during a PlayStation conference to announce Grim Fandango Remastered. It is one of the best adventure games to ever be released so to see it reborn is definitely a good thing. If that wasn’t enough indie adventure goodness for you they released the first half Broken Age last year to rave reviews with the next and final portion to come later on this year.
Knowing how Double Fine normally does business, you can be pretty sure that they have some other neat things in the work as well. Just recently they announced that they’re bringing back Day of the Tentacle so this year is already brimming with gems. Make sure to keep tabs on what they’re up to by checking out the official page.
