Skytorn, the procedurally-generated Metroidvania from many of the folks behind Celeste, has been cancelled, developer Noel Berry has announced.
Berry started working on Skytorn more than five years ago, but he and the rest of its team halted development to make Celeste, which came out in January this year. Just before Celeste released, Berry said that Skytorn wasn't dead, and that the team would finish it off in the future. But that plan has now changed—in a blog post this week, he revealed that the team has abandoned Skytorn, largely because they "just never figured out what it was".
