Well what do you know! Here’s the first trailer for Ron Gilbert’s new game at Double Fine The Cave, an action adventure puzzle game. The ability to switch between characters is givin’ me a definite Maniac Mansion vibe. Looks great! Can’t wait!

Adventure Game legend Ron Gilbert (aka the Grumpy Gamer) has given us a sneak peek at the motley crew of playable characters featured in his upcoming adventure game atDouble Fine. In addition to The Scientist (my favorite!) featured here, there are The Twins, The Knight, The Adventurer, The Time Traveler, The Hillbilly and The Monk.
A great set of of characters, and lo and behold four out of eight are female! That’s 50% of the playable characters! Pretty neat.

Holy wow. Tim Schafer and the Double Fine team’s quest to revive the Adventure Game Genre via Kickstarter has garnered a ton of attention, and is already an overflowing success with (at thismoment) $719,178 UPDATE OVER $1,000,000 of the original $400,000 goal after only 24 hours. Simply incredible!
Kickstarter won’t let me post the video, but it’s so funny you’ll be giggling and handing over all your money to Double Fine within minutes. Go to the page and watch it!
I’m so excited for this! Dream come true for everyone!!!
