The founder of Double Fine studios said that he receives daily requests for the sequel, but fans often do not understand how game publishing works.

"I mean I get a lot of, on Twitter or whatever, daily questions about Psychonauts 2. And I would love to do Psychonauts 2, I've actually pitched that to publishers several times and no-one has taken the bait so far," he told Digital Spy.

"I'd love to do that game, but I'd have to convince someone to just give me a few million dollars, that's all."

Schafer: We were talking about what game we could have access to because if we were using one of the games in production, the publisher might not like that, they might not like their coverage of that being so broad. We were worried about secrets and unannounced stuff and all the hassles of getting approval for everything, so we thought: “Let’s just start a new project and we could have Kickstarter fund that, too.”

...it was going to be a cool, cute, little fun game, but it would probably be kind of hobbled as far as adventure games go. It wouldn’t have compared [to] Day of the Tentacle or our old games because it was going to be a fraction of the price.
