The developer of Hotel Dusk and Trace Memory is gone.

I... I feel like crying. This is the worst gaming-related news I've heard in a while.

That's right, the Hotel Dusk sequel is dead.

I feel like Christmas just got cancelled for the next ten years.

Hotel Dusk is fucking godlike. Trace Memory is hit-or-miss, and it's really short to boot.

I'm not as sad, haven't played any of their games... but your guys' reactions make me at the news.

The fact that companies like this go out of business while festering warts like Ubisoft, Activision, EA, et al. rake in $billions makes me

What I don't like is how a lot of the small video game studios and companies of years past have been swallowed by the giants over time. It happens outside the world of video games, too.

Especially when the larger company discontinues the superior/cheaper products of the smaller company, or makes huge changes to said products in order to integrate them into another product line, or promises to use the acquired technology to better their own products, and then just throws it away...

Ahem. Anyway... *kicks thread back on topic*

Someone who has the required capital should set up some kind of small games developer's guild or somesuch that exists to ensure that small developers have the financial and peer backing to grow and perhaps merge, but with no interference from said 'guardian' organization. An umbrella corporation, if you will.
