No mention of Dead Cells? Play Dead Cells.
Great game but Motion Twin are dicks.
I haven't heard, what did they do?
Long story short, Motion Twin gave the game to Evil Empire around 2019 (iirc) to handle its development, so they are the ones who made every update and expansion from the first dlc onwards.
After like 5 years of DC being developed by EE they released the "the end is near" update, but said that it was not the last update and that they were working on more stuff, including wrapping up the story.
Then Motion Twin announced a new game, and shortly after they cancelled any work in DC. The goodbye posts included some shutouts to the new game, so the cancellation of DC was seen as trying to kill any competition to their new game. One ex-dev said that MT were being a bunch of dicks to EE and claimed that the cancellation was indeed to give more attention to the new game.
