They're under 100 staff now
unclear, they've got 3 offices so if they're not trying to merge their remaining people, it's full support mode
unclear if they have ANY internal projects at this point, their Marvel game and Deus Ex 3 were both canceled
oh, they're the main support studio on Fable and that's it, so yeah they'll likely be fully shut down after that
Karl Jobst lost the Billy Mitchel lawsuit
he has to pay damages
damages are 395k
apparently the case had nothing to do with the cheating
it was purely about karl claiming mitchel forced apollo legends to pay a huge settlement, which was a direct cause of his suicide (which was untrue)

Minecraft putting way more effort into their april fools update than actual updates is always funny

I've watched some of it (early game), seems pretty solid
Especially for an EA, and I think it's also a solo dev
Ship (oot pc port) finally released 9.0 after like a year
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak Ship (oot pc port) finally released 9.0 after like a year
finally a tracker with logic
The one for the MM beta works pretty well
other than some issues with it not realizing certain things are not in logic that should be fixed for the full release
With this, I think ship is essentially feature complete compared to normal rando
It is missing actor randomizer and enemy souls and maybe a few other things
It’s close enough to complete that I’d say it prolly outranks any other version for me

Yeah thats just something that happens eventually
Honestly, a funny longer game one to do would be if someone could get the combo oot/mm rando in AP
At minimum settings thats like 700 checks, maximum its closer to 3-4k
With all the setting 9.0 ship allows, you get 1400 checks
and MM beta rando with its settings is also like 1300ish
I added another ~1k since I know that actual non ship rando has a bunch of extra settings
We're going to watch it once there's a camrip out
I previewed the pre-release leaked version, and it's low-quality in a way that I don't think is that funny after the first couple instances of unfinished effects or dead air
Is McDonalds just trying everything at this point
and seeing what sticks
They did get VTubers to endorse them in Japan after all
