Amnesia Fortnight is [Double Fine’s annual internal game jam](https://www.humblebundle.com/double-fine?ref=killscreen.com), where members of the studio cook up a ton of rough sketches for games that are far too zany, cutesy, and preposterous to otherwise exist, like [this one](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHFxbWObt4g&ref=killscreen.com) about a horse-for-hire that saves clumsy heros. Then, for the next six days, they’ll ask you, their adoring public, to vote on which ones they’ll make.

It’s a great creative exercise that doesn’t always materialize into great games, but has produced some small gems like *Costume Quest*. This year, *Adventure Time* cartoonist Pendleton Ward (who we did [this awesome interview](http://killscreendaily.com/articles/interviews/5-10-15-20-pendleton-ward/?ref=killscreen.com) with) is participating, and some of his ideas look pretty marvelous, because of course they would, such as this one about a cupid who makes people love inanimate objects. He clearly has the right mindset for making original games. (Although we did trash [the last *Adventure Time* game](http://killscreendaily.com/articles/reviews/plumbing-depths-adventure-time-explore-dungeon-because-i-dont-know/?ref=killscreen.com), we doubt he had much at all to do with it.) So, Double Fine, hire this man.
