I heard Bioshock Vita bankrupted the dev, is that true?

Yeah. It just didn't sell enough to recoup the dev costs.

Serious answers please! I heard the development cycle may have been responsible for this.

Bioshock Vita never went beyond pre-production. They haven't been slaving away at it for the past few years, they've just been mostly ignoring it.
