With less than 8 hours left to go in their Kickstarter fundraising effort, Double Fine Productions has raised $3 million toward their new point-and-click adventure game and the accompanying documentary.

Although the project reached its original $400,000 goal during the first day, $3 million is an interesting milestone because it matches the budget of one of Schafer's classic LucasArts adventure games, Grim Fandango.

As the fundraising winds down, Schafer and co. will be hosting a live video stream from their offices. The action starts at 6 p.m. ET.
