I have good news and bad news.

First the good news.

The good news is that we just started production on Thimbleweed Park 2, due out in early 2028.

We will self-publish with the help of a private investor.

Mark Ferrari, Gary Winnick, David Fox, Octavi Navarro, Robert Megone, and others from the original team will be back!

Wishlist on Steam!

I’ll be starting up a Thimbleweed Park 2 dev blog like we did for Thimbleweed Park and posting regularly to keep everyone up to date.

Now the bad news

There is no bad news, it’s all good news.

Congratulations! I hope it's a big success! Nice to see familiar talent back, too.

I can't imagine how you're going to make a sequel considering how the first one ended, but I'm really enthused to find out! I always felt there were hints in the game that the reality of things might not be what we ended up finding out...

Canโ€™t wait. Loved the first one and just read this. You made my day. And the fact that all you guys are involved. David, Octavo, Mark, Robert, etc. Amazing gift. Now I really have something to look forward to 2028 before November :) since this is not a kickstarter, do you plan to do dev podcasts or something similar? Those were great but I totally get if you donโ€™t have the time.

They managed to make a third Monkey Island. If anyone can make an improbable sequel, it's Ron Gilbert.

Thank you so much. My wife and myself are totally addicted to old schools quality point and clicks like you guys have done. Keep trusting yourself and do not listen to stupid people telling you how to do what you guys are the best at.
So hyped
