SAN FRANCISCO - May 7, 2013 - Double Fine Productions exhibited a complete lack of humility in announcing the immediate availability of the Humble Double Fine Bundle, an incredible opportunity to receive four classic Double Fine games forâyou arenât going to believe itâthe price of your own choosing.
Astonishingly, the Humble Double Fine Bundle includes Psychonauts, BrĂźtal Legend, Costume Quest, and Stacking as completely DRM-free downloads forâget thisâWindows, Mac, AND Linux. Itâs the first time BrĂźtal Legend, Costume Quest, and Stacking have ever been available for all three of those platforms. Incredible. Plus, weâre throwing in Steam codes for those who pay a dollar or more. Excellent.
âItâs true: Weâre amazing,â commented Tim Schafer, president and CEO of Double Fine.
âWe generally like to be a little more humble about these deals, guys. Itâs kind of our brand,â said Humble Bundle co-founder John Graham, a total buzz-kill.
âI sometimes find it hard to fathom how great we are,â Schafer added.
You probably thought those flavor quotes meant thatâs all there is to this bundle. Think again. Those who contribute $35 or more will gain Backer Access to Broken Age, Double Fineâs upcoming crowd-funded adventure game.

Okay, now weâre really done. Ha! Fat chance. Contributors at $70 or above will receive an exclusive commemorative t-shirt designed by Soundshapes and Polygon graphic designer Cory Schmitz. After all, weâre innovators.
And not just innovators, but philanthropists. Customers can choose to donate any amount of their purchases to Childâs Play Charity or the Electronic Frontier Foundation.
Charity, innovation, platform independence. These values are what weâre all about. Itâs nothing, really. Weâre doing the best we can, just like everyone else.
