Double Fine's Tim Schafer debuted some gameplay footage and announced the voice actor for one segment of the upcoming adventure game, Broken Age.

Elijah Wood will voice Shay, the futuristic boy who stars in one half of Broken Age's story. Schafer did his best to avoid the trolling of VGX co-host Joel McHale, but it was a challenge even for the man behind titles like Maniac Mansion and Brutal Legend.

The first installment of Broken Age will be available some time in January, which should make the Kickstarter backers waiting for the game they funded very happy. Whether or not Broken Age was worth the wait remains to be seen, but there's a good chance Double Fine will deliver.
