They&#8217;re not incomplete. But they&#8217;re rough and scrappy and small. They&#8217;re meant to be cheap and played for shorter amounts of time,&#8221; Schafer said. Using the separate label, he continued, sets expectations at an appropriate level: &#8220;This is not Psychonauts 3. This is an experimental thing. We had a lot of fun with it, and we thought it was fun enough to share with people.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To be clear, Thank You Bus Driver is not part of the ongoing Amnesia Fortnite 2026, which will wrap up its very successful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/doublefine\/amnesia-fortnight-2026-indie-reboot\/description\" target=\"_blank\">Kickstarter<\/a> (and name a final winner) later this week.
