The Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp is abuzz with activity as we prepare all of you anxious new recruits for the April launch of "one of the most anticipated games of 2005" (we didn’t say that, Computer Games did). Read up on the latest report below, and while you’re down there give us 20!

Slip on your goggles and prepare to dig deeper into Tim’s squishy noggin because we’ve just exposed the right side of his brain where all that incredible creativity spawns. Snoop about in the new Misfits, Monsters and Madmen area to see what kind of sketchy personalities Raz will encounter on his psychic adventure. The "insane and incredibly talented" Double Fine superstars now have their own slice of the cranial pie in the Arrested Development section. Enjoy it with a cool glass of milk! Think you’re the one

harboring dirty little secrets? Even Mr. Schafer has some of those juicy tidbits squirreled away in here. Perhaps you already think Tim is god? Well you’re not alone. Mingle with fellow disciples on these fan sites and plot Tim’s true ascension to the heavenly throne. Finally, hone your mental skills and prove you have what it takes to be a Psychonaut by playing our Head Games. If your head starts to hurt, don’t stress. That just means your massive intellect can barely be contained!

Nestled between the moist undulations of Tim’s left brain, we’ve found this fresh nugget that reveals just how sneaky little Raz infiltrated a top secret training facility and scored his own bunk. In future Bootcamp Bulletins we’ll bring you not one, not two, but FIVE more movies from this "wildly original" game.


Afraid incriminating images might permanently burn onto your screen? Raz is here to save the day with his scintillating Psychonauts screen-saver. Download this trippy file here.


You’ll discover that the new desktops awaiting your mouse are so shockingly beautiful you’ll likely need to find a quiet corner in which to weep. Bring plenty of tissues because we’ve posted four of them!


If you haven’t picked up on all of our subliminal message links peppered throughout this Bulletin, then 1) you’re probably going to flunk Basic Braining and 2) you definitely need to read the full rundown of all of the latest and greatest press. Do not be alarmed. We swear Tim Schafer really isn’t "contagious."

 

Now that we have your attention, we confess this is only a tease of news to come. In due time we will be showering you with demos—Xbox, PlayStation 2 and PC playables are being coded in the secret Double Fine and Budcat workshops as you read this. It’s safe to say this demo will BLOW YOUR MIND so kindly collect your thoughts now before you put yourself in real jeopardy….

Real demo news (we swear!), additional artwork, slick flicks, pre-order goodies and more will all be revealed in future issues of The Bootcamp Bulletin. Feel free to be awed by the sheer volume of material that
awaits you!
