Weekend News Edition
Rumor going around the net recently involves the developer of No Man Sky, Hello Games, has either shut down or might be in the process of shutting down.
Fueling the speculation are photos of the studio looking like it had been abandoned and supposedly both the game's producer and studio's community manager left the company shortly after the game's release. Some counter claims includes people saying the developers are just working from their homes and the city of Guilford having lots of buildings looking similar but are still in use by companies. |
Gotta admit. Something shady is going on with those Hello Games guys now.
Any of our British posters around that area? Can they confirm? |

According to an investor on FiG, Psychonauts 2 needs at least 2 million copies sold in order for Double Fine to break even on development costs but only if the game is priced at $60. Same goes for investors trying to break even with the game.
When it was originally pitched to investors, the goal was around 1.7 million copies needed at $20 in order for investors to get almost all their money back and Double Fine to break even. For some reference, Psychonauts 1 has sold around 1.7 million copies since its release although almost 800k was due to Humble Bundle sales alone. http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1294935 |
