It's Tim Schafer going back to a game genre where he produced games that people (rightly) have an undying love for.

The only surprise with this is that you wonder why he didn't do it already.

No surprise really; no publisher will support an adventure game. If it's not an FPS/Action/Sports game no one will touch it. It's the reason Schafer started doing "indie" games in the first place.

That much is easy to explain: no-one will invest the money needed to fund it. That's where kickstarter wins (in this case, at least).
