Welcome to Double Fine's Happy Action Theater

What if your life could be a Tim and Eric episode?

I'LL TAKE 12.

Isn't this kinda sorta what Double Fine is already doing with Once Upon a Monster? Kinect minigames for the kids?

Surprised it's a download, seems like the kind of thing that would do well on shelves for parents and kids to see. Ah well.. more announcements incoming, yes?

Cool another Double Fine game to be overhyped when it's really mediocre.

I've seen worse mini game collections.

And I love that music.

Hahaha. Oh Microsoft, you thought you could avoid Nintendo's fate with your motion controls. Too bad!

I feel dissy and mildly sick.

My reaction

Kinect: doing what the eyetoy did 10 years ago, just as poorly.

If this is the shit that will get them money to make more great games for me, then I am ok with this.

Or it's the kind of shit that will get them the money that convinces them that making even more shit will make them even more money.

Oh man, companies trying to make money! Blasphemy!

(This looks like stuff spun off from an aborted Eyetoy disc. Not for me, but someone out there must care about it. Maybe 8 year olds.)

Wow, a retail Kinect game that's actually just that: A Kinect game. No half-assed "would be better with a controller" stuff, either!

Clearly for kids, but hey - it might be fun.

My kids are going to lose their tiny little shit over this. Awesome.

So...hopefully this is a collection of ideas they had while making Sesame Street padded with some interactive screensavers? 'cause if this is a legitimate project...

That is the very possible, horrible alternative!

Truly this is the mind of Tim Shafer.

So they are making the floor lava.

So there is at least 5 seconds of game in there

So they're making a Facebook game next I gather?

I'm crying right now from the cuteness!

I...um...hmm...

Maybe it really is time for me to replay Day of the Tentacle again...

They could have at least had somebody descending into the lava giving a thumbs up gesture T2-style. 
 
Also, we are clearly not the target market for this.

I sure hope Giant Bomb is getting some kick backs for this obvious idea theft. Or maybe Vinny can get a consulting gig and tell them to add more fire/explosions.

If this is the shit that will get them money to make more great games for me, then I am ok with this.

This seems surprisingly generic for Double Fine.

Excuse me, wtf is this?

I will only play this if that music plays over the entire game.

Double Fine will be bought and this will be the shite that Microsoft forces them to pump out for the Kinect.

@RockmanBionics: Oh snap, ha ha ha ha, wew I just remembered something funny... why am I replying to a comment ./shrug

This doesn't even seem single fine.

Yea so this is a thing...

quest?
