Authors of "Psychonauts" and "Brutal legend" will develop game prototypes that based on gamers' voting!

Authors of Psychonauts and Brutal legend will develop game prototypes based on gamers' voting!For years (exactly, since 2007), Double Fine - the video game developer who brought us Psychonauts and Brutal Legend titles - had been doing what they call "Amnesia Forthnight": each year for two weeks all of the company's employees would get away from whatever project they were working on, divide themselves into small teams and work on prototypes for new games. Some of these prototypes were chosen to become full games, but if in the past the person who chose which of those prototypes were to live and which to die was Tim Schafer, this year the privilege is now ours: gamers and fans. Yes, that's right! Team members from Double Fine will publish video demos, and gamers will vote which of those will become actual prototypes. After the said forthnight - two weeks of non-stop coding - the prototypes will arrive to Humble Bundle, where users themselves decide how much they will pay for a download. The voting starts now, so watch the video from Double Fine for more details, and head off to Humble Bundle, because that's where they're putting these concepts we vote on!
