GameDynamo - "With the success that LIMBO has achieved, we felt this was the ideal time to fully regain our independence," Dino Patti, Playdead CEO, said of the purchase. "We are grateful to everyone who supported us over the past few years, and look forward to forging new partnerships that will both let us reach new heights as a studio and give our director, Arnt Jensen, room to grow creatively."
Playdead co-founder Dino Patti is allegedly being sued by his former studio and business partner.
Patti was threatened with a lawsuit earlier this year after he posted a now-deleted LinkedIn post that shared an "unauthorized" picture of co-founder Arnt Jensen and discussed some of Limbo's development. Patti said Jensen demanded a little over $73,000 in "suitable compensation and reimbursement," adding that he had "repeatedly" had such letters over the last nine years.
The Epic Games Store has a couple of fun games waiting to be added to your library.
TNS: Eight years ago, Playdead revealed it was working on its next game. But since then? Almost nothing. So what exactly has happened?
As great as it is to hear of a very successful studio developing it's next creative product, I can't help but worry of their future, given the economic climate. Not to say it's as bad as 2009-2010, but there's still much uncertainity in the world.
Your welcome PD :) Looking forward to the next project.
