Occasionally we get some good news—albeit in the form of a dry press release—about small, creative developers getting some decent financial news. Double Fine Productions, helmed by Grim Fandango and Psychonauts creator Tim Schafer has a publisher for their next title in the form of Sierra. Here's the feel good corporate approved speak:
"The Sierra team has been awesome to work with," said Tim Schafer, president and CEO of Double Fine Productions. "Everyone we've met brings experience from a small developer background, so they know where we're coming from and what we have to do to make a great game. Combine a developer-friendly attitude, support for innovation, major-publisher status with a worldwide scope and you have a perfect match for Double Fine."
Why should you care about something that sounds so... business-y? It means that Double Fine isn't going anywhere, despite the financial disappointment that was Psychonauts.
Unfortunately, no other details were released, but whether its original IP or an update to a classic Schafer-driven franchise we win in either case.
