Death Discorporated: Ambient Studios To Close
Death Inc. had a great deal of style but it may never be substantiated. Ambient Studios, formed by by former Media Molecule, Criterion, and Lionhead employees, has confirmed that it will close its doors. Following the failure of the Kickstarter for the plague-ridden strategy game, Ambient offered alphas to paying customers in order to bring in development funding. That tactic hasn't provided enough cash to keep the studio open though. All alpha backers will receive a full refund and, hopefully, the team will find new projects to work on soon.
