The studio Possibility Space has been shut down, effective today. Now-former studio employees have announced their departure.
Senior game designer Brendan McLeod stated that everyone at Possibility Space was laid off, and others such as former senior environmental artist Matt Graczyk and lead systems engineer Kyle Kukshtel have confirmed their layoffs.
According to Polygon, Possibility Space owner Jeff Strain blamed the studio closure on its employees leaking information to the press about its upcoming game, Project Vonnegut. As a result, Strain claims the studio was unable to secure additional resources from the project’s publisher and decided to cancel it instead.
