Double Fine announced a Kickstarter campaign for Amnesia Fortnight 2026, a game jam, documentary and prototype series, after separating from Xbox and reducing staff.

The studio, founded in 2000, has produced titles such as Psychonauts, Brutal Legend and Costume Quest, many of which originated from earlier game jams. It streamed game jams in 2012, 2014, 2017 and 2019, and has used Humble to release prototype builds.

The new campaign launches on August 31 and runs through September. Backers will select four game ideas to become prototypes, then vote for the final small game. Video production company 2 Player Productions will document the event for a new documentary. In August 2024, Double Fine underwent layoffs, cutting 23 of its roughly 90 employees after becoming an independent studio.

The initiative aims to fund the next phase of the jam while reviving the studio’s independent development model.
