Myst developer Cyan Worlds has announced the decision to lay off half of its team.

12 employees have been affected, decision due to firm “weigh[ing] the future health of our studio against the month-to-month realities of game development”

Disappointing to hear, I liked Obduction and Firmament both.

ongoing Kickstarter campaign, which is supporting development of its upcoming title Firmament

What? Firmament was released in May 2023.

Either AI written, or a bad way of phrasing this update from their kickstarter, which suggests that there’s a deadline for any unclaimed physical rewards from the kickstarter for Firmament, suggesting that they’ve still been shipping them up until now

Though the fact that they called it an upcoming title makes me think AI helped write the article.

That sucks. Been loving their remakes, but it’s also a very niche interest. Myst just doesn’t grab the headlines like the latest AAA slop.
