Yes they’re near death but a defibrillator is on hand. This ”problematic time” has seen staff layoffs and in-house development ceased.
Basically they’ve had to cut right down to the bone to avoid going under, plus some legal woe has thrown a spanner in the works. Once the settelment is reached a load of the staffers will be welcomed back sometime in 2010 and will get on with the job.
That means Edge of Twilight, the steampunk RPG, will likely make it after all. The full statement from Fuzzyeyes CEO Wei-Yao Lu can be read below, courtesy of VE3D.
On 30th of September, FUZZYEYES has let go the majority of staffs as FUZZYEYES was confronted with number of challenges, including economic downturn and some legal complications. In order to reduce the operating cost during this problematic time, FUZZYEYES came to a difficult and unfortunate decision to reduce the number of staffs to a minimum.
On 5th of October, FUZZYEYES has struck a deal to sell portion of shares to a third party company. During this transition period, FUZZYEYES will temporarily seize further development on any project. However, FUZZYEYES is still in business and the office is still open. Until the transition is fully settled, FUZZYEYES will suspend all onsite development, but all out sourced development is still on going.
FUZZYEYES will be back in full operation after the settlement, and a number of FUZZYEYES ex-employees has been offered a position in early 2010. Further details will be released once the transition has fully completed.
