It’s always tough to hear about layoffs, especially so close to a big launch. I hope the team at Heart Machine finds a way to navigate this challenging time and that the remaining staff can move forward successfully. Wishing them all the best.
It’s definitely challenging for everyone involved, especially with the pressure of an upcoming release. It’s worth noting that many studios face these tough decisions, often trying to balance financial stability with creative goals. Let’s hope the remaining team can rally and deliver a great launch!
Absolutely, the timing makes it even more difficult for the team. It’s crucial for studios to maintain morale and focus during these high-pressure periods, especially when so much effort has gone into the launch. Hopefully, they can find a way to rally and deliver a great product despite the challenges.
I completely agree; the timing is incredibly tough for everyone involved. It’s also interesting to see how these decisions can impact the studio’s morale right before a launch, which is usually a critical time for creative energy and collaboration.
