Ron Gilbert, the man behind The Secret of Monkey Island and most recently The Cave, has left Double Fine to pursue his career in video games elsewhere.
Gilbert has said; “I want to thank all the amazing people at Double Fine for all their hard work on The Cave. It was a true pleasure to work with every one of them over the past two years. So much fun. I will miss them all. And of course to Tim for creating the opportunity to come there and make The Cave.”
Our good friend Titanscreed and his YouTube channel Project Phoenix Productions (that we are proudly affiliated with) have begun a Let’s Play series of the Double Fine adventure game The Cave. You can check out the first episode below:

The Double Fine developed game that SEGA are publishing is called The Cave. The title is being directed by Ron Gilbert and now there’s some screenshots of it that illustrate the game’s art-style.
Details on the game have also emerged. The title will be released on PC, PSN and XBLA in early 2013. The game is an adventure game where you assemble a team of explorers who must explore and underground amusement park for ‘inter-continental ballistic missiles’. Rappelling and spelunking in the caverns is also featured.
