Well, LEGO Universe, the game I have been working on for the last year and 8 months, has officially been canned:

It’s pretty much how it sounds. Didn’t get enough subscribers. Unfortunately, this decision came at the end of a new studio design which would have had a lot of new games coming up in the future. I guess someone higher-up decided the math comparing TT games (i.e. LEGO Star Wars) to ours was just too sweet to resist.
So… what now? Well, that’s about where I’m at. Lots of possibilities. Lots of things to worry about, too. On the bright side, I should have more time for other things I have wanted to pursue professionally for months and months. On the other hand, I don’t get any severance. So that’s kinda shitty.
Whenever I sort out my brain I’ll be back to this blog. I might as well have committed to NaNoWriMo at this point…
