The extensive series, which has been seven years in the making, comes from 2 Players Productions, whose most recent documentary, Double Fine Adventure, followed the creation of Broken Age, the developer’s Kickstarter success story. 2 Players Productions has also released documentaries about Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception and Minecraft.
Polygon named Psychonauts 2 one of the best games of 2021, calling its story “one of the best video game stories ever told,” in which the mechanics, the environments, “nearly everything serve the game’s narrative.”
