The following was released by Double Fine: "While we can't comment on unannounced projects, we can say that Double Fine's Kickstarter-funded adventure game has not been started, designed, or even imagined yet. No trademarks have been filed on its behalf."

In case you haven’t heard, Double Fine has a kickstarter campaign that’s paid off very well for them so far. Currently, the ticker indicates they’ve been pledged over two and a half million dollars, and they’ve got some new incentives that might help push that number even higher.
The feel good story of the year just keeps getting better.
The Double Fine Adventure fundraising effort on Kickstarter has just hit $2 million in pledges, less than two weeks in. After reaching its $400,000 goal in just eight hours, the fundraiser has continued to raise more than five times the original amount requested.
Languages and platforms now known.
At this point you’d have to be living under a rock to not have heard how Double Fine amazed the gaming world by raising nearly $2 million (and counting) for their next game, Double Fine Adventure through crowd sourcing site Kickstarter. Gamers who gave generously were given scant few details concerning the project aside from the fact that it would be a classic point-and-click graphic adventure game and that it would be released around October of this year. But now that the project is certainly a go, Tim Schafer has released a special message with a couple of updates on the project.
It's nearly a year away, but a new racer from Sega is on its way.
Today's Toy Fair in New York brought some interesting news for Sega fans. Kotaku reports that toys for a Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing sequel were on display and exhibitors confirmed that the new title will be making its way to retail this holiday season.
Paramount Pictures and Namco Bandai are teaming up to develop the game.
Namco Bandai has announced that it is working in conjunction with Paramount Pictures to develop a video game based on the upcoming Star Trek movie for a 2013 release. The title will be released for "all major home consoles and PC."
The next game out of Double Fine Productions will be entirely funded by community pledges.
Sometimes miraculous things happen in the video game community. Double Fine Productions, creators of cult favorite games like Psychonauts, Costume Quest and most recently Double Fine Happy Action Theater wants to return to their roots and produce a simple “point-and-click” adventure game that they are aptly calling Double Fine Adventure. Usually a developer would have to rely on a publisher, investors or bank loans to bankroll such a production, but Double Fine has instead decided to reach out to the community to fund the game.
