2 Player Productions and Double Fine Productions present Double Fine PsychOdyssey, an unprecedented documentary experience seven years in the making. Ten years after the release of their flagship video game Psychonauts, Double Fine Productions returns to its most celebrated franchise with Psychonauts 2. Now facing the pressure to produce a worthy sequel, the studio must confront overly ambitious designs, poor morale, technical challenges and financial woes, all during a turbulent span of time for the world. Double Fine PsychOdyssey is the direct continuation of the acclaimed series Double Fine Adventure, and offers even deeper insight into the passion, humor, and heartbreak of video game development.
From the crew and studio behind ‘Double Fine Adventure’ comes a brand new feature length documentary diving into the fast-paced world of game design and the fresh challenges that come with turning ideas into reality. Double Fine Productions (known for Psychonauts, Broken Age, Brütal Legend and more!) regularly take a two week break to collect their thoughts but the work doesn’t entirely stop. In a process called “Amnesia Fortnight,” anyone and everyone at the studio can pitch a game concept. The goal: turn those ideas into working prototypes. In 2019, during their work in Psychonauts 2, Double Fine held another Amnesia Fortnight. The result? New projects embodying the studio’s ethos of comedic adventures and unique games.
Artist Michael Firman has long been a collaborator with Double Fine Productions. Michael has created stylish portraits of the team, graphic support for the Amnesia Fortnight documentaries, and the animated story recap at the start of Psychonauts 2. For the PsychOdyssey, Michael was contracted to produce an opening title animation that would subtly change to represent each episode and the passage of time in the studio. This supercut presents just a small highlight of his total work on the series alongside the scenes that inspired him. The featured music track is "Illusions" by series composer Orange Drink, found on the second volume of his expansive PsychOdyssey soundtrack release.
