After picking up SF Weekly in the Coffee Bean in San Francisco's financial district, I read an amazing article about Tim Schafer and his recent Kickstarter success. What was most interesting to me was the run through his personal history. The man's brilliant and this article captures it perfectly. Definitely worth the read :)

P.S. If you haven't already, pick up the
Indie Humble Bundle V - it comes with
Psychonauts, arguably one of Schafer's best AND the soundtrack. Just name your price...
