For a second, I thought this was supergiant games, and had a heart attack
Confused Supermassive with Supergiant for a moment, phew
until this comment, so did i.
Same! Then I remembered Supergiant has under thirty employees and that number made no sense.
“redundancy consultation process” I hate newspeak
Its a british thing. If a company wants to lay off a large amount of employees, they have to go through a process called consultation. This obliges them to sit down with your trade union rep (if you have one) and tell them why your job is being cut.
Not sure how much difference it makes in practice, but at the very least it guarantees a 40 day period between announcing redundancies and actually firing people.
How big was the ceos bonus last fy?
Their CEO quit end of June without any reason stated. Sounds like he was the first one to get laid off.
Well that’s good.
Most of these layoffs are VC groups pulling funding from gaming companies to shift to AI investments
Yeah because they think that AI will make the games in the future.
Have you seen AI make games they’re terrible. They objectively work but they’re not good games because AI has no creativity.
I doubt they even care, VCs are there for investment returns, they don’t give a shit about anything else
Their name has now been changed to Stellar Mass Games.
