kowenicki said: Thank you. Sucks that TGC have only just seen a return on their efforts after 14 months. Perhaps they will fare better now they are multiplat. I beleive they have funding for their next venture in place now? So as long as they can actually stick to their business plan this time, they should see some hefty profits on reputation alone for the next title. |
Yes, we received US$5.5 Million from Benchmark Capital last summer and are now up to about 17 people. (Forgive me, we are continuing to add new people to the company, and I don't know if this new guy is *officially* working at the company as of right now just yet.)
And no, we're not sticking to the original game idea (this is probably what you mean). Former TGCer Asher Vollmer, PuzzleJuice creator, noted that the game will be huge and will take a long time to develop. We were initially planning to make a smaller game than Journey and then decide what to do from there, but the game continues to change.
The same thing happened with Flower and Journey (flOw was just based off the PC version), so don't be worried. :)
