Obsidian Entertainment's Chris Avellone revealed the firm's plans on Twitter after a follower quizzed him about crowd-funded games.
Offering no further details, Avellone tweeted: "No news yet except we're still working on it."
Earlier this year, Avellone hinted at a Kickstarter project, after being "inspired" by the success of Tim Schafer's Double Fine Adventure.
"The idea of player-supported funding is... well, it's proof certain genres aren't dead and sequels may have more legs than they seem. And the idea of not having to argue that with a publisher is appealing," Avellone explained.
"Out of curiosity, if Obsidian did Kickstart a project, what would you want to see funded?"
Most responses were in favour of an old-school Obsidian role-playing game in the same vein as Avellone-designed release Planescape Torment.
Obsidian Entertainment's next release will be South Park: The Game, which is due to launch later this year on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
