Funders wanting a polished vertical slice, or a year of full-time work from the whole team, while Young Suns was still in production is the brutal bit. A 30 person studio can’t build two games at once, and Dabbous says they’ve never had a hit to pay for it

We need more co-ops and syndicates. Suits get money blown up their ass all the times while the workers get crumbs. Money distribution is always crap in companies that aren’t worker run.

It’s a pity they had to fire some people, but I’d they can survive and maybe make a good game, that’d be preferable. The NDP should focus on funding these kinds of companies instead of trying to buy bioware back from the Saudis with taxpayer money.
