Double Fine Productions founder Tim Schafer will be inducted into The Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences’ (AIAS) Hall of Fame.
Schafer – best known for games like Grim Fandango, Psychonauts, and Broken Age – will be honoured at the 26th annual DICE event later this month (not to be confused with EA’s Stockholm studio of the same name).
“Tim’s creative impact on the industry cannot be understated,” said Meggan Scavio, president of the AIAS. “For over 30 years, he has heralded imaginative games that have inspired countless others with his humour and originality. We are thrilled for Tim to be inducted into our Hall of Fame.”
