Udvikleren bag de ellers ret succesfulde puzzle-titler, Riven og Myst, Cyan Worlds, har måtte gennemgå en ret omfattende fyringsrunde, en fyringsrunde der har resulteret i at godt og vel halvdelen af det samlede antal ansatte.
Studiet selv siger at fyringerne er nødvendige grundet "industry conditions,", og går yderligere i dybden i en udtalelse på X.
"Industry conditions have forced us into a tricky spot where we are having to weigh the future health of our studio against the month-to-month realities of game development in 2025. Throughout the past year, we have been ultra-transparent with the entire Cyan team about the choppy waters we find ourselves in, as well as the dangers ahead. While the news of a layoff was not a surprise to the team, it was (and is) still deeply saddening for all of us."
Studiet er i gang med at forsøge at sikre finansiering til deres næste projekt.
