[BLOG] Double Fine lay off some staff after deal falls through

Two months after Spacebase DF-9 was released early without a bunch of promised features due to not making enough money to justify its continued development, Double Fine have let go twelve staff.



The lay-offs come as a result of a deal for an unannounced game falling through unexpectedly, and only the team that was supposed to be working on said game are being affected by this. Other teams within Double Fine's company are untouched by this.



Currently on their development table is a remastering of cult classic game Grim Fandango, the second act to Broken Act and Massive Chalice; a turn-based strategy game that has been funded through Kickstarter.



It is not currently known if the staff affected have been offered help finding new work.
