Edge of Twilight NOT canceled! photo

Yesterday there were rumors that Edge of Twilight had been canceled, and today we bring news that is kind of good and kind of bad. Fuzzyeyes has stopped production of the awesome-looking steampunk game, but the news is not as grave as you might think -- the game is postponed due to development issues, not canceled.

Contrary to reports, Fuzzyeyes has not closed down, and the game is very much alive, albeit in stasis. The good news is that development is scheduled to start again in the second week of January 2010. Currently, outsourcing teams are hard at work on keeping development ticking until the main studio can take over again, so hopefully things will be back on track early next year.

This is a huge relief, as we are huge supporters of the game at Destructoid. We will keep you updated on the game's progress.

This is just the next step in the eventual death for this game.

Trolling has gone meta?

I probably know the reason why the game has run into "development issues".

Hint: Tim Langdell

I can tell you right now that Langdell is not involved. He and Fuzzyeyes actually resolved any potential legal issues several months ago.

Ok. Thanks for clearing that up. That's a relief.

So this is the new way that companies are going to drum up interest in projects that they should have canceled? This game is even more dead to me than it was before.

@Xzyliac:
Writing a smiley doesn't magically remove your responsibilities. Racism and antisemitism, even if said with a smile, are two grave offenses. humor doesn't cure everything, and it certainly isn't an easy way to say whatever fancies your weird mind at the time. It does not alleviate any of your social responsibilities, nor does it help others condemn such thinking.

@ghil: doesn't humor by it's very nature cure racism and anitsamitsarkarism. If we don't seriouslly mean or perpetuate something then we are lessening the effect had by those that really do and also having some fun. So long as you don't mention black people because that's just wrong.:)
