This One Falls Slowly

Each week I do a tech column for Turnstyle, usually on Fridays. This week I got a little bit excited:
There’s only one story worth talking about this week for the Game of Buzz and that story starts with Double Fine Adventure — a Kickstarter project from the legendary game designer Tim Schafer (Psychonauts, Brutal Legend).
Wanting to get back to his roots of making point-and-click adventure games, but knowing that it would be a hard sell to game publishers, Schafer decided to take a chance on the crowd funding site, Kickstarter. The goal was to raise $400,000 in a little over 30 days. That was yesterday, at around 5PM.
[If you care, the rest is on the site that, you know, pays me to write for them.]
