Super TEAM? Super TEAM.
This is so cool. Cant wait to see what these guys put out. Very curious to see Ollys designs and ideas directly used in a game.
And I think its cool they have some backing from Panic. Theyve been putting out top notch software for years and it gives me some more confidence that all of this will come together nicely.

It's like a video game supergroup. I can't even begin to imagine the madness these four will create together. At least we know it will look absolutely gorgeous.
Sounds like Panic is funding them. So, nope! Which is even cooler! Funded right out of the gate! :O

Man what a dream team lineup!
Day 1 if its Seans Steve impression for the voice
Oh man this whole time I'm like "finally I'll have breaking news I can post on NeoGAF!" but of course I'm way too late.
Excited to be a part of this adventure with these guys. Technically we're just the money men but I feel like it's way more of a mutual-respect partnership and we'll be inspiring each other.
Uhh.. I'll post again in a long time when it's done!

Holy crap, this talent is BIG.
And a good choice for the company's name, I dig it.

Man, I am so excited I might barf. Crazy times. Thanks for the money!
(... Sean would post too but he's been rejected for a GAF account three times. Best.)
pm a mod, i'm sure they'd fix that for him

listen to the mad man
That's a pretty significant talent bleed from Telltale.
All involved (including Panic, who make phenomenal software!) are awesome though, I see very bright things coming out of this!
I'd be happy to fix that if he has an account waiting in the queue right now (just PM me the username/email)

Saw this thread title and knew exactly who was gonna be involved. That idle thumbs from a couple weeks ago makes a lot more sense now.

They just need J Allard and Will Wright.
Refresh my memory? What did they say?
Nels and Olly were on it.

Guess it's up to Nick Breckon to prop up The Walking Dead now.
Expect the new protagonist to be talented with a saxophone.

Well that's an exciting team, I'm really curious in seeing how Olly's work transfers to games. It sucks for the companies that lost some of their best talent though.

Sean Vanneman talked about being jealous of Gone Home on a episode of Idle Thumbs a few weeks ago.
These guys going indie makes total sense.

Oh man, this is awesome. What a great team! I can't wait to see what comes from this. I know Olly had mentioned getting into the indie scene earlier this year, but I hope we get to hear more about the formation of the studio on the podcast.
Also the website changing colors is mesmerizing.
Congrats dudes!

The only thing that sucks about this is the interminable wait between now and the time I can lay hands on their first game.

My favorite game writing of last year coupled with my favorite game design of last year?

A game with the deep game design of The Walking Dead and the impeccable writing of Mark of the Ninja.
But seriously, hype.

So is this sort of like an American version of Mistwalker, where Campo Santo will do the design work for a game, then collaborate with another company to implement it?

This is great news for future games from Campo Santo and terrible, terrible news for future games from Telltale.

Damn you Idle Thumbs for taking Nels Anderson away from Klei!
After Mark of the Ninja (my GOTY 2012), I'll follow this dude whatever he does.
