Fallen Earth : Big Names Laid Off
In the latest round of "restructuring" at Icarus Studios, Massively is reporting that three prominent names from the Fallen Earth development team have been laid off. Producer Dave Haydysch, Marketing Director Jessica Orr, and Director of Content Development Wes Platt are no longer with Icarus Studios.
This letter has been cited as confirmation of the layoffs:
Hi Wastelanders,
In order to maintain ongoing production and expansion of Fallen Earth, we have reshuffled some of our management team. As a result of these recent events, Canticle, Archangel and Circatrix are no longer with us.
As a small indie developer, Fallen Earth stands by our fans and we assure you that your game play experience will not be compromised by the recent events.
We will continue to deliver new content as development on Fallen Earth continues. Additionally, all community events will carry on as usual-please keep an eye out for our November State of the Game, slated for early next week.
