Take a Look At Tim Schafer’s Yo-Yo Skills

July 13, 2012 by Lana Polansky

And then maybe buy a yo-yo.

Want to be like Tim Schafer? Well, we can't you promise that. But you can own a Double Fine yo-yo, and you can accidentally smack yourself with that yo-yo. Just like Tim Schafer.

In the current Weekly Double Fine Action Sale Of the Week, two different yo-yos are being offered for half-price in the Double Fine Shop. Available are a slick-looking Psychonauts/Razputin Yo-Yo and a Two-Headed Baby Yo-Yo. Normally these yo-yos go for $15 apiece.

As you might expect, these sales happen once a week, offering discounts on official merchandise for fans who don't mind supplementing the development studio with a little extra revenue. But you don't always get a video of Mr. Schafer showing off his intense yo-yoing skills…and then hurting himself and getting laughed at.

"It totally made a cracking sound against one of my carpal bones. Possibly, metacarpals," writes Schafer in a comment he left on the website.

The things he does for our sake. Best to pick up a few yo-yos.
